      Re: Supplements??

      OK here's my list (not as long as cleo's LOL)

      mulitvitamin with green tea extract,
      CLA - 2x 1000 mg's, 2 times a day
      Evening primrose oil, 1 cap 3 times a day
      Time released B complex, 1 per day
      Co Q 10, 60 mg per day
      Omega 3-6-9 2 per day
      Calcium 500 mg 2x per day (my multi has 500 too)

      I try to stock up on CLA and coq10 when they go on sale, they seem to be the 2 that really get pricey. i've heard you should take a minimum of 4000 mgs of CLA a day (it's supposed to help body fat loss)

          L-Glutamine
          L-Carnitine
          Primrose Oil
          Multivitamin (no iron)
          Chromium Picolinate
          Fish Oil/EFA

          I think I'm going to add a B-complex. I was taking it when I did Atkins before and think it was a good choice.

            I take Atkins Basic 3. Essential Oils, a calcium/magnesium/vitamin D supplement, and a Potassium pill. I was taking CLA for about 6 months and decided it wasn't doing anything and dropped that.

                I truly believe I got pregnant because of Dong Quai. We had been trying for a year and a half, and I got pregnant the first month I started taking it. I consider that stuff a miracle drug!

                  I totally agree. My husband and I had been together for 7 years(Not trying but not doing anything to prevent either). I originaly took Vitex to regulate my cycle. Once I did that I started on the Dong Quai. And with in 6 months of taking it Here comes little Lars.. But no one believed me when I told them how Lars came to be. They don't believe in my herbal remedies.

                    OK. Now I might be wrong, but my dad always told me you got pregnant by holding hands on a bridge.
