quickcluck Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Feeling a tad rundown so thought I'd take something. I don't bother usually as I have a good balenced veggie diet. So any recommendations for a tablet or a tonic? Which would be best? Thanks Kay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 My daughter is veggie & I get her a multi vitamin & oil supplement which is veggie friendly from Tesco,just to make sure she is getting all that she needs. A lot of vitamin supplements seem to be not suitable for veggies,as they contain fish oil or other by products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 The only veggie supplement I regularly take is veggie omega 3 (Flaxseed Oil capsules and Cerebrum (Algal Oil) capsules, both from Healthspan). I occasionally take veggie multivits (also from Healthspan) when I remember, which is not very often! But I do think the omega 3 is important.

Redwing Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 When I was made redundant and went through a rough patch of illness and stress I took Berocca which I thought did work quite well Not sure if its suitable for veggies though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I am vegetarian, and would recommend a liquid tonic called Floradix, which I always take if I am feeling under the weather. It is a vitamin/herbal extract/fruit concentrate tonic and I have found that the Liquid Iron Formula is the one that works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I'm a firm believer that all vitamins & minerals are available in food, not supplements. So I'd recommend some fresh homemade soup, smoothies & juice to boost your immune system. Can't beat fresh fruit & veg - herbs too.

quickcluck Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 I already do the soup and smoothie thing, even wheatgrass when ive the stomach for it So not sure why I'm not right. Am gonna give berroca a try as I have the adverts and its the B & C bits which will boost the important things! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Ahhh poor you. Would having a blood test be a good idea - just to check you are ok? Brandy, that's what you need! You give budgies a weeny bit as a tonic, so it must be good for humans too! Or come & visit me - I'll take you to get some fresh mountain & sea air. Works wonders it does. Well does for me!
