Nutritional Supplements
NOTE: I am NOT a fan of supplements, and I don’t believe you have to take dozens of pills to be healthy. But it doesn’t hurt to take a safe multivitamin (meaning one without vitamin A or beta carotene, which is known to promote many types of common cancers in the body, or iron unless you’re anemic and need it), most of us get far too little of the omega-3s we desperately need for optimal brain function (and eating fish in quantity has its own risks due to mercury) so it makes sense to supplement DHA, and recent studies have shown that most people in our part of the world are vitamin D-deficient, which can lead to all kinds of problems, including many common cancers. My recommendations below are solely based on that science and not on hype or any lose-weight-fast-with-this-magic-pill sort of nonsense, which isn’t healthy in the slightest.
(Adult Multi) Dr. Fuhrman’s Gentle Care Vitamins — My recommended multivitamin for adults. It’s the only one I’ve found without vitamin A or iron anywhere, and I looked far and wide both in the entire NYC metro area and online.
(Children’s Multi) Dr. Fuhrman’s Pixie Vites — Again, these are the only multis I’ve found anywhere for kids without vitamin A. I actually prefer to buy vitamins, like most things, in person at the store, but there just don’t seem to be any manufacturers out there taking into consideration the dangers of supplemental vitamin A and iron.
Vegan DHA — This liquid formula comes in a dropper. You can add it to smoothies or other foods if you wish. I personally don’t like the taste no matter how I’ve tried to mask it, so I put it in empty vegetarian capsules (gotten easily at most health food stores) and take it with water.
Dr. Fuhrman’s Favorite Flora — If you have recently taken antibiotics or are about to take them, the meds typically kill off most of the good bacteria in your gut. And since these healthy bacteria are important for your digestion and your immune system, being off balance can make a big impact on your health.
Dr. Fuhrman’s LDL Protect — This is for people with high cholesterol only.
