Morning:
Glucosamine (TMJ syndrome. I can tell it works whenever I run out and go a few days without it, the jaw pains increases)
Evening Primrose oil. I get "moody" without it
Omega 3 (I used to take 3-6-9, but recently learned that 3 has anti inflammatory properties and 6 has inflammatory properties. since I now know I have inflammatory bowel disease, I'm only take 3 now)
Panax Chinese Ginseng. I need energy from somewhere
Slippery Elm. soothes the digestive tract
Vit C. Crohn's means I'm cooking my vegetables now, which means some vitamins are lost...
If my muscles are sore from an intense workout, calcium/magnesium
Evening
Glucosamine
Omega 3
slippery elm
Vit C
cal/Mag
I used to take feverfew to reduce the frequency and intensity of migraines. I'm lucky that I seem to be going through a spell without migraines, because I can't seem to find feverfew!
I'm seeing a naturopathic doctor a week from monday. my supplement regime may change....
I had one 'natural healer' of some description, tell me that the supplements I was taking were not being broken down in my digestive system so I wasn't getting anything out of them. I didn't completely believe her!
I also generally take way less than the recommended dosage. My tolerance for drugs seems to be pretty low, so I apply the same logic to the supplements.
Your mileage my vary,
