Eat right and forget the vitamins and supplements. People are too dependent on pills, you eat right, there should be no reason for supplements unless there is a medical reason.

A multi vitamin, an Omega fatty acid supplement(I know I should just eat some salmon but I REALLY don't like the taste) and a Chondroitin/Glucosamine supplement.

Whether all this makes a REAL difference or just a psychosomatic effect I'm not sure :rolleyes:

Agreed. Both my doctor, as well as the kids' pediatrician, recommend this. Get your vitamins/nutrients from food, not pills.

I'll load up on C, E, Zync and Echinacia if I feel a cold coming on.

B if I'm worried about booze flu in the morning

how's that workin' out for ya?
Well, the boss found out so I got sidelined for 50 work days. Knocked me out of the employee of the month contention.

In all seriousness, I try to take a multivitamin. Better to get it through food, but the way I look at it, if I get it through food, great, just a little extra, if not, then at least I took the pill.
