    I've never felt they truly provide. I just take a good daily multi-vitamin pill and watch what I eat.

    Scientists say “beware, you may get a tummy ache.” And then they don’t say anything smart at all. Just continue to say the most basic possible thing to say “eat a diet of Whole Foods, fruits and vegetables.” Thanks doctor. You’re really on the forefront of human knowledge… how long did you go to school to get into your position?

      To answer your question, I have found that wating more baked foods help. No pork or beef helps. 100% whole wheat helps. Eat all fruits, all veggies, all nuts. No coffee. Unsweet tea with lemon slices. Not the no sugar added tea, but unsweet tea. Eat and snack all day. This will keep u full and u will find less of a reason to want junk. Also watch ur salt intake. These things will surely help. Sip on water all day. Don't drink, but sip on water and eat ur raw veggies and fruits.
      Eating lemons, limes, oranges, watermelon, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers. These things will kick ur butt and keep u running. Also keep u cleaned out and feeling your best.

    What about vitamin D? I'm in the UK where it's recommended especially during winter months.

    • @connie473
      @connie473 2 года назад +3

      Yes, Vitamin D is suggested but getting vitamin D alone is not like getting a pill/capsule with tons of things. So buy the vitamin D alone. I did that too when I lived in a place that winter was too cold and there wasn't enough light/sun.

    • @BuffaloNickel9
      @BuffaloNickel9 Год назад +1

      Yep y'all are correct about D supplementation. On a side note, as a boy growing up in high school my parents would give me a multivitamin everyday & vitamin C + D I winter. All were pills form. I never had an appetite around breakfast so I remember if I went pee in the morning everyday in high school for at least 2 years when I took the multivitamin it was a bright yellow color you could just tell none or very little of the vitamins we're getting absorbed and they were just going through me.. when I switched to gummies, even though I still didn't eat breakfast, I wouldn't have this problem or color or stomach upset. I believe they were all getting absorbed properly due to the different Administration method of the gummy.
      About the vitamin D, absolutely! I still take vitamin D gummy until this day especially in the winter months. The only way you can get vitamin D is from the sunshine and it's very necessary for humans, extra important especially in men. Buy it separately standalone even if you take a multivitamin with D already

      being adult doesn’t mean you have to stop every single things that make you happy or that you think taste good. it’s a good compromise for people who like candies but want to stay healthy and eat them in moderation. at least they bring nutrients
