And why? And how did you work out what to take?
I recently had a blood test due to general fatigue. First results showed everything normal except low calcium levels, GP prescribed calcium+d3 and requested 2nd lot of bloods to look at parathyroid.
Second results showed normal everything so doc was hesitant to prescribe more calcium+d3.
To be honest, I was hoping that the low calcium explained my lethargy and that there might be a way to feel more energetic.
But given everything is “normal” I don’t know whether to keep taking the supplements or not. A friend told me a whole list of vitamins and supplements that she takes and someone else recently mentioned that they do too.
I didn’t get to ask why they take certain ones or how they knew what to take, and it’s got me wondering about the whole thing...
Seems like an awful lot of potential for messing up your body’s natural stuff!! And how long do you taken them for - forever??
Please come and explain your thinking re taking vitamins!
