acne remedy?
has anyone else tried this, i was looking and found this post and this dude said this is what you take and it will clear it up for good, he used to work at a health board company or something like that
Take this daily
Niacin-vitamin B3 (the FULL flush type--must be this type-you'll get used to it) 500 milligrams-once in the morning, once at night
Chromium Picolinate-200 micrograms-once in the morning, once at night (US govt owns patent on this-interesting huh?)
Zinc Picolinate-50 milligrams ONCE a day
Flax Seed Oil Softgels-1000 milligrams-one a day (make sure the one you buy does not use hexane to process their oil)
Use this for two weeks and thank me very much-do this for a month and say HOLY CROP! After two weeks, cut the niacin dosage to once a day.
vitamin supplements for teens?
to improve my performance in school i wanted to take some vitamin supplements
i was planning on taking
magnesium 150 mg
vitamin E 250 IU
Vitamin C 250 mg
B1 (Thiamine) 15 mg
B2 (Riboflavin) 10 mg
B6 (Pyridamine) 5 mg
Folic Acid 200 micrograms
B12 - 50 micrograms
If it would help I have my average day's food below:
B
1 Bowl Cheerios, 2 egg whites
L
2 PBJ sandwiches, nuts, yogurt
S
Apple or bannana, nuts
D
Meat (I usually have 2 1/2 card decks worth), salad, carrots, potatoes
I was going to take a regular centrum multivitamin along with that (but if you compare the numbers the multivitamin in insignificant). I checked some statistics on the safety threshhold of these vitamins (the level where there have been no reputable reported cases of harm) and the amounts I have are significantly below).
Is taking a lot of certain vitamins in proportion to others bad (would that cause an imbalance)?
Also, should I alter any of the amounts?
How often should I take them
What is the difference in the amount of micrograms in vitamin b12?
I'm going to start taking vitamin b-12, for healthier blood and more energy. In stores they have three different bottles, one was 120 count, and two more were 60 count. The difference in the 60 ct ones was that one was 1000 micrograms and one was 2000 micrograms.
What is the difference in the two, and how will the amount of micrograms affect me?
Thanks
