Do you take Lysine with food or without?
I bought some vitamins called L-Lysine (500mg) and the directions say to take it twice a day on an empty stomach. I was online and some L-Lysine require to take it with food, which procedure works best??
What are the best vitamin brands?
ie natural,most and easiest absorption,etc....
What are the best brands for these:
alfalfa
cod liver oil
igf-1
l-lysine
l-arginine
calcium
vitamin D
multivitamin
glucosamine ansd chondroitin
What else can I take to improve my health?
I am currently taking Gaia Herbs: Adrenal Health (which contains Holy Basil and Rhodiola root),Krill Oil, L-Lysine and Centrum Ultra Women's Multivitamin. I also take the Paradise Herbs Green power that I mix with my juice
Any other suggestion for me to take to improve myself. I have a low immune system and taking all my vitamins have helped. However, I still can't find the energy to get up most time in the morning. (I am college student and I also supervise overnight at a shelter. So my stress level can be high at times, any suggestion for anything else that will improve myself (maybe also the dark undereye circle I have and my hair).
Thanks

Reactions to different brands of same vitamins?
I have had hives for 2 months now and although i do think stress is making them worse I can't figure out what caused them. The only thing I can think is I bought a different brand of my L-Lysine, could a different brand of the same vitamin give a reaction?
