Totally agree with Sue. I also take some supplements (targeted towards deficiencies - not a multi) because of my kidney damage. I am on the big three and cannot live well without daily strong probiotics. Also vitamin D3 and K2, keep certain levels in my labs balanced, and sometimes turmeric for inflammation. I see an individualized approach to supplementing as best, based on tracking labs or outcomes. I'm also in Canada so definitely need the Vitamin D!!

I also agree targeted supplements is very important for some people. I really do not know where i would be if i had not started taking vitamin D for years. I have read that many Pulmos say if you take anything for Bronchiectasis take D. Of course if you have a high calcium issue you should not take D but that would be more rare. Getting your D levels tested once a year to see if your supplement is working is also a good idea. Some assimilate better than others. And adding vitamin K is important but take it at a different time or they compete. Vitamin C is also important for us. And of course probiotics.
