I know generally that most of our nutrient supplements are best found in fresh fruit, vegetables, and meats but I'm wondering if Costco sincerely sells any actual good and healthy vitamins and supplements. I think I'm going to pare down what I currently take to just: daily multi-vitamin, d3, and fish oil.
I'm pretty new to nutrition and I have a hard time keeping track of what vitamins and metals I'm supposed to be consuming or which foods are rich in each of those nutrients. I was wondering if anyone knows of an app where you can just put in what you've eaten in a day and it keeps track of how many of which vitamins and minerals in getting through food consumption
Preferably something that is primarily focused on the health component rather than calories and weight loss. I'm really not trying to get an eating disorder like most people I've known personally who have gotten into calorie counting
Edit: Thank you everyone for your suggestions! I downloaded Cronometer and so far I really like it :)
Feeling a little bit dizzy today and I feel it may just be lack of overall vitamins. Maybe low iron as well?
Anyone have any recommendations for good multi vitamin safe to take with gastritis?
Edit: this was prompted as I just today started having some slight dizziness. Could be from PPI’s but my diet has changed so dramatically I’m sure I’m also deficient in some vitamins.
i’ve just been diagnosed with iron and vitamin d deficiencies and I’ve had a lot of hair loss and so, so much breakage - my hair is extremely brittle. i’m taking supplements but I would love to know shampoo recommendations - my old shampoo and conditioner both have SLS and every time I use it I shed like crazy. I really need a moisturizing shampoo because my hair is super brittle and I want to protect what I have left.
also, how long could it take before my hair stops being brittle on its own? can anyone else who’s ever had hair loss related to these deficiencies weigh in?
What are some good vitamins/supplements that have helped with your PCOS? Just with managing it in general and with health and symptoms?
I recently heard that vitamin k is good for dark circles. If you know anything about this please enlighten me. And if you know any products that have this ingredient available in India, please comment below.
I’m 20 years old and balding...lol. Every time i brush my hair chunks of hair fall out. My hair is waist length and keeps getting thinner and thinner. I love my breastfeeding journey but i feel like he’s sucking all my energy and vitamins. Please help a mother out!
I've been using TO Ascorbyl Glucoside and prior to that I used Hylamide C25. In spite of using 2 bottles of each, I really never liked any of them. I find them to be very sticky which for me is a BIG no-no as I hate the feeling. After some research, I can't make up my mind between Garden of Wisdom Vitamin C Serum 23% with Ferulic Acid, Garden of Wisdom C-Deep or TO L-Ascorbic Acid Powder. Any thoughts on this? Cruelty Free is a must. Many thanks in advance for taking the time to help me
So like the title says.. I’m over putting all my money up my nose so I make a genuine effort to get clean and hit up a virtual rehab. Dr prescribed me 10 days of subs or something and said take 2 a day .. even using at my worst in the past I’ve never been givin that high of a dose esp with no tapering directions and taking the same amount everyday. I waited well over 24 hours. Did the high dose vitamin C method and honestly Had not one day of withdrawals for 6 days. Went back on psych meds. Felt great. Woke up almost a week being clean randomly feeling sick and a little like i should maybe take a sub because that’s it purpose right? WORST IDEA EVER. I end up somehow having the worst reaction to it. Precipitated withdrawals NOT possible as it’s been SO many days with no opiates in my body. Almost a week!! And here I am throwing up bile unable to eat a thing having diarrhea too weak to even take a shower or bathe myself. It was so bad I ended up ending my streak and buying some dope because it was so bad I was about to go to the hospital. If I had just dealt with the mild discomfort and craving and not listened to the doctor pushing me to take the sub I wouldn’t now be in this position where I had no choice but to buy dope. I was throwing up nothing practically water cause I threw up so much. I’m now feeling better, and doing the dope was only to take me out of whatever the fuck it was with the sub that my body went crazy and had a adverse reaction when clean for several days off dope, so again precipitated WD was not even possible. And it’s a lie that you can’t feel anything if you do a sub and after do an opiate, cause it saved me from going to the ER. I’m so mad that a substance prescribed to help me just messed me up even more and possibly could have really hurt me. Drinking lots of pedialyte and water. Pray for me that I can put this day behind me and not get back to using again.
Hey everyone,
I feel like everyone has certain staple products they always go back to. I do have some of them myself, but unfortunately a vitamin C Serum is not part of it.
I'm on a pretty tight budget, but I'd love to hear any recommendations of your favourites! I've had a small tester of the Serum by drunk elephant, but I was surprised to find that I didn't really like that one, it was too thick and heavy.
Anyway, recommend away! Thanks ❤
Here is the link to the product page: https://evanaturals.com/products/vitamin-c-serum-plus
It contains 2% Retinol, 3.5% Niacinamide, 5% Hyaluronic Acid, 2% Salicylic Acid, 10% MSM, 20% Vitamin C (SAP).
So this is a new product I came across. It has over 30k reviews so I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with it. From the description and at the price of $15, it just sounds way too good to be true. Any thoughts?
Hello everyone. I live in Germany. Although I have struggled with skin issues all my life...(I am 24)..I have started with skincare very recently. I have light south asian /yellowish skintone. My skin is normal to oily and I have a lot of milia and texture on my forehead and side cheeks.
Here is my daily routine:
AM- Skinfood bio acai cleanser + Face Theory n10- 10% niacinamide and azelaic acid serum+ Ordinary HA moisturiser+ spf 50 la roche posay anthelios
PM - Cerave SA Cleanser+ facetheory m10- relaxing night cream.
Occasional exfoliant every other night- paula's choice 2% bha
Since I have a lot of post acne scars/hyperpigmentation on my face I am looking to add a vitamin c treatment to my PM routine. The problem is that most recommendations I find online are of korean/US brands that are unavailable in Europe. Do you know of any good vit c serums available in germany/EU? (Preferably not ascorbic acid because I heard it goes bad easily)
I could really use some recs! Thank you.
