New vitamins

I just started taking Dr. Teitelbaum's "Energy Revitalization" vitamins. I found his website, took his quiz and read a lot of the articles. Personally I believe that it is very important to take charge of your own health. That's why I never stop researching and being curious. I've tried various vitamins with different results. For awhile I took Reliv, an extremely expensive vitamin powder that they claim cures all ills. I'm sure it has helped some people, but for me I felt better maybe the first week or so, then went back to how I was before. Then I tried Emergen-C packets which had sort of the same effect. They helped me feel a "little" better until I realized I was sensitive to the artificial flavorings in it. I also have been taking Natural Calm magnesium supplement. That has helped me a bit and has no artificial stuff in it.


Well this Energy Revitalization stuff seems to have all the things fibro patients need. However it tastes horrible!!! (Just my personal opinion ;) ) I can tolerate it only mixed into a fruit smoothie. My husband loves this because he loves smoothies and I've been making them every night! Also I did notice the powder has soy lecithin and some other questionable ingredients for me. I hope that is a small enough part of the ingredients that it will not affect me too badly. I know I need more B vitamins in particular. It also has iodine for thyroid health. The new doc yesterday said my thyroid was "thick" and I was borderline anemic :( So I'll be giving this a try and when I go back to the doc next month I'll let her look at the vitamins and give me her opinion on them.
