DANG IT!!!

LHCF has done it again!

I have a new addiction. :(

Every since I started taking the MSM and noticed the amazing results I cannot stay out of the Vitamin and supplements aisle. You should see my medicine CLOSET. :eek:

Anybody else suffering from Vitamin and Supplement addictions?
What's on your wish list and what are you currently taking?

Last night I bought Collagen Powder, DMAE and Alpha Liporic Acid.

Here's a list of what I've been taking:

Vit A - for whiter eyes
Vit e - for skin
Vit c - helps absorption
CLA - helps to lose belly fat (natural relacore)
ALA - skin
DMAE - memory and skin
L-Lysine - to prevent cold sores
Flax seed oil - internal moisturizer
Iron - shedding hair
zinc - hair
green tea - anti- aging detox
Braggs ACV - weight control
Collagen - anti aging
MSM - carpal tunnel and skin.

On My wish list is the glucomann - for weight but now that i've read the shangri-la diet maybe I'll just get some ELOO.
glutathine - Evens out the skin tone all over.
Hydralunic Acid (HA) - super hydrator

My skin is radiant. But I am looking for something that will last. Because with the MSM if you quit taking it, your skin will loose it's glow in a couple of days.

Actually I am thinking about going on a really good raw food fast but not quit 30 days:eek:

Yes, gn1g, I too am addicted to vitamins! I have so many they are in an overnight bag. :perplexed

I have MSM, Flax, Fish Oil, Super Omegas, Ester C, Biotin, Silica, EPO, Glucommanan, CLA...

I want to add CoQ10 and B50 back in, but not until I phase something - probably Silica.

What exactly is CLA and where do you get it from?

CLA = conjugated linoleic acid. Tonalin is the recommended type of CLA to purchase. WalMart carries it and I also purchase it at VitaminShoppe.

In animal studies, Tonalin CLA was shown to be highly effective in weight loss and converting fat to lean muscle. Body builders and weight loss professionals use it and recommend it.

It takes at least 60 days for it to take effect but noticeable results are seen in the waistline.

Apparently, its a fatty acid found in red meat and cheese. ???

I have been using Cod liver oil and B-complex. I notice my skin really benifiting from these.

I thought it was just me, I can spend hours at the health food store. My daughter hates to go with me. But I cannot really blame this on LHCF because I was always interested in natural remedies. However since coming to this forum it is just another excuse to go to the HF store.

How long have you been taking the ACV pills? How are they working for you and how much did they cost?

Yes I would like to know also, because my Aunt had me drinking a tbsp of ACV and it felt like it burned a hole in my chest. :eek:
