Hmm yep I get really confused at times to because there are just so many to chose from.

I take Sanatogen Gold every day, its a multivitamin tablet you can get it in boots or any other pharmacy, Tescos etc stock it to. I take this one mainly because its one that my therapist recommended. I do believe I read an article once as well and it came quite high up in the recommendation list.

CENTRUM or PHARMATON i have found to be the two most recommended by doctors...just in my experience.

Ahh yes Pharmaton is very good as well. Ive taken it before, but I took it for energy reasons not really as an everyday mutlivitamin. Might still be the same thing though, Im not sure.

Thanks, it's good to know which ones are recommended by health professionals!

I had a quick look at the various websites and Centrum is not suitable for vegetarians so that narrows down the choice.

I'll check the other two out at Boots tomorrow! I need something really powerful! Wink

Any more suggestions before I go out to buy them? Smile

I need something really powerful as I am currently making up for many years of undereating.

Cheers!Wink

well you know that only 33-50% of whats in supplements get absorbed? are you still undereating? the best way is always the natural way. x good luck

Thanks! No, I am currently working on getting back on track with what I hope is a healthy diet and sufficient calories, but I am getting recommendations here and there that multi-vitamins might be helpful too. I suppose there is no harm in trying; the worst that can happen is that it is a waste of my money!

33-50% is very low. Is that because most people already have the vitamins they need anyway?
