Supplement

Posted by kay15 @kay15, 4 days ago

Good evening everyone.
I am at my halfway point of my Evenity treatment and my labs came back with low Vitamin D and B. I personally hate taking those giant chunky pills so I wanted to ask if anyone has success with any specific supplements to increase vitamin D and B. I'm suppose to have 2000 units a day and then test again in 4 weeks. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

I use gummies for those.

Vitamin D gelcaps aren't big.

@kay15 neither Vitamins D or B are big pills. If it is B12 you are lacking, these pills come in sublingual form and just melt under your tongue. D3 comes in small gelcap form and very easy to swallow with a sip of water.

I currently take life extension D3 25mcg. I take three gel caps at once each day and it is keeping my D levels as 70 ng/mL which may be a little high for some. I keep them high with the thinking that I'm on teriparatide and take very little calcium due to worry about atherosclerosis ( which is an issue of medical dissent ).
My B12 is sublingual solgar methylcobalamin 1000mcg. I never test for any of the Bs.
