Go! Take Your Vitamins.
November 14th, 2007 by Mighty MorganMighty Morgan here, with my latest post!
I’m sure that at this point in time, we have all been told of the importance of of including all the proper vitamins into our daily diets.
But before I get into a big ordeal about that..
First I need to take MY vitamins……
Vitamin LL
Vitamin K
Vitamin H
Vitamin U
Vitamin P
Vitamin S
…the essentials in which to build a strong foundation for my life and a solid foundation for my future.
Spiritual Vitamins.
Love and Laughter
Kindness
Hope
Understanding
Peace
Serenity
My only question to you all …………..
Did you take your vitamins today????
Cool post Mighty!
God old Vitamin ME for me - time alone with myself…
‘All, by myself, I wanna be….’
Inspired by fellow gal, Bridget!
Good for you! Don’t forget to take some LL for love and laughter..you’ll need that
lol
Good to hear that Sarah :o)) Love yourself first, all else will come naturally in its own time!
Hi Mighty! Clever letter work…
We pop Vit C from time to time - washed down with Wheatgrass of course and the occassional cod liver oil / Glucosamine suplhate to reduce creaky joints later in life…
Fulfillment is the vitamin we’re focusing on a the moment that surpasses any form of ‘ happiness’ for us both. GO!Figure as they say stateside or Hasta la pasta as you say, mighty! Keep those phrases comin’!
Thanks guys…enjoy whatever mix of vits your taking and please do share from time to time..I think we ALL could use a dose of whatever you two are poppin
lol
just to say popping the odd glucosamine willhave little effect
the effectiveness of glucosamine where it has proved effective has been over a long period of time suggesting an accumulative effect to be possibly beneficial.
ivit c needs to be taken in split doses over the course of the day as its water soluble.
as ever here to help!
I thought it acted like a cushion around the joints? Is that right?
I would have to say Vit ME, love, and that fav mineral cuddles is the only vitamins I take… I have never and will never take vitamins purchased from a health food store or chemist….. I just don’t like paying for the arsnic and syenide used the processing of them… If I want those added extras I will go up to the mine and buy a bag……
lolololol..

Nice one Mighty, my ‘S’ vitamin would be ‘Speed’ though!
I doubt we want to put Morgan back on that road Bridget, she’s done so much hard work and come so far.
Oh! No!! I meant speed as in driving at high speed in a car :))
Hmmmmm…… speed……. I have ‘I’ for ICE…. Its freezing down here and its summer……
HA! A classic thread at flowers with BJ n GIC - the best yet!
Vits for me = the occassional dose of bee pollen, lecithin to help me lose a few pund and Vit B…oh and D in the sunshine!
lol…either way it’s okay…it’s still funny!
Good on you MightyM, good for u!
Ha ha and double ha…..Oh Gareth thanks you for you “concern” lol…anywhooo speed wasn’t my “thing” but we can look at it as “Serenity” I do love a big dose of that!
Glucosamine suplhate?
There is some evidence that it is beneficial but:
‘Systematic reviews of studies have found that many of the clinical trials testing complementary or alternative medicines have major flaws. These are due to bias from large company sponsorship, poor quality of research and small number of people being tested in the studies.’
‘As yet minimal side effects have been noted in rare reports in complementary medicine books and websites. These include skin rashes, headaches, downiness and mild stomach symptoms such as diarrhoea and flatulence. The long-term effects from use of glucosamine are not yet know.’
‘A study in the British Journal Sport Medicine (2003) gave subjects with regular knee pain, 12 weeks of a glucosamine supplement (2000mg per day). The results suggested that a glucosamine supplement can provide some degree of pain relief and improved mobility in subjects who experience regular, chronic knee pain due to cartilage damage and/or possible osteoarthritis. 88% of the glucosamine group did report less knee pain, however there were no objective improvements between groups in the functional tests’ - note the typical recommended dose from manufacturer is 1200 -1500mg per day compared with 2000mg in the study.
Oh dear you’ve done it now, flowers.
Case for - case against.
Balanced as ever Dave - just pointing out that there is no unbiased evidence - yet, or any long-term studies into the use of such suppliments. And the daily dosage used in the study was 25 - 40% higher than that recommended by the peddlars of such pills.
As with anything…I mean anything. There will always be those for the use, those against the use and those who couldn’t care the least.
They do provide something for some people..but not all
also far better to take a lose dose jab of nandrolone decanoate for joint health as thats what it was made for.
just be careful however as it may knock out your HPTA axis if taken in a supra-physiologival dose.
WOW Gary…
Can you simplify that please and did you just google all that? Seriously..this HPTA axis??@!?!
Oh and does Vit C 1000mg a few times a day blast colds?
**Hope you don’t min me quizzing our Doc in the house at your post, Mighty?**
I have heard that actually Sarah but not sure how true it is.
Nah…it’s no problem. I think that everyone has their own opinion on the “validity” of vitamins and such…..in the end if it helps you and doesn’t hurt you…Who cares!
I know that for me I take vitamin & mineral supplements for certain things and they do help…I also eat lost of fresh fruit and veggies for a natural supply of them!
In a nutshell it will cause a imbalance within your glandular (Endocrine System) they are created to work together and introducing some things into the body…SCREWS up that synchronicity….causing problems later on.
Oh those Anatomy and physiology classes I took….seems that I remember some things
Is Gary a doctor? I mean, really?
My Mom takes it for pain in her hip….so far this is the only thing that has offered her relief…so more power to it….unless of course we find out that it destroys something else n the process….Yikes
I have dabbled in vitamins in the past but have never taken any long enough to feel any benefits. Or is it just because there are no benefits?
All vitamins can be ingested naturally by a healthy diet and thats how I get mine. I think your body actually tells you what you need more of.
Your right…I’m a firm believer that the body is self regulating in respects that is there is an imbalance of sorts…it will compensate by over stressing other aspects of the system, which in return show symptoms of imbalance. Thats my take anyway…all I know is that when i do incorporate the “essentials” overall I feel better..mentally, physically and emotionally.
best to get them naturally…but if that not a possibility then compensate with some vitamins and minerals.
Try spelling out these vitamins
Thiamine
Salt water and small quantity of germanium
Anthranilic acid
Adenylthiomethylpentose
Salt water and small quantity of germanium
ascorbic acid.
Phylloquinone
salicylic acid
Makes sense to me
I took plenty of Vitamin E in the 90’s, instant results,hot sweats,brighter colours and uncontrolable dancing to anything with a beat.
I’m with you Bo.
MDMA - must mean Multi something, right?
Go smell the beak, sponsored by Bo’s disco biscuits.
Yeah I took quite a few of those as well…lol
Don’t forget to take your Vitamin DD…
I’m sure them men are hoping that the women will take those…for their viewing pleasure!
lol
Very clever Oggle, I mean Olga - you won the flowers here didn’t ya? Last week?
Yes I did - and they were delivered YESTERDAY to my husband’s office of the occasion of our 15th wedding anniversary…he was very suprised AND they are beautiful!
Arn’t Jim ‘n Em the GREATEST?!?!?!
Vitamins and Minerals are in my opinion needed as our soils are so depleted of these and really, the food we eat just doesn’t contain enough to sustain our bodies like it used to.
There is another Vitamin P = Play. A good dose of playing every day along with all those others MM mentioned are in my book along with some Omega 3 too. Calcium and anti-oxidants are also on my list.
Another good choice Ange…and a very welcome one…especially here at GO! We all do tend to take our daily dose here!
