You know, I hate the word supplements, but I guess that is just what they are.   

 

I went to the drugstore yesterday, actually on a search for probiotics which came up pretty fruitless, but did go ahead and get a couple of things.  Naturally, my main intention was to get Vitamin C, and that is the one thing I walked out of the store without.  I got a big bottle of Vitamin E instead–I think I was overwhelmed and got confused.  Oh bother.  Anyway, back to the task at hand.  There are so many brands of vitamins, I wish there was a good trusty reference as to which are actually useful, but I guess time will tell.  I would be thrilled to hear from any of you who know a lot more about these things than I do.  What I don’t want is to be told that I have to spend a fortune to get a decent vitamin!  I chose the mid-range brand, as I usually do in situations like this.

 

I also did the no no and chose flax oil in a capsule form rather than in the seed form.  I thought that I would be much more likely to actually use it that way, I hope I will still reap the benefits.  As I get more in tune with all of this, I will change to the seeds and grinding them myself, I imagine that they would be tasty in yogurt, and I know the fiber will be very beneficial. 

 

Anybody else adding supplements to their diet this week?
