I would like to know what vitamins / supplements other diabetics take? There are so many out there that it can get quite complicated.
I like to take Co-Q10 as I take statins but without wanting to waste too much money I would like to know what other 'essential' vitamains should we take. I know my GP said that Vit D3 is the only vitamin he takes. I've wondered whether to take a probiotic supplement (I don't like yoghurt) and Omega 3 and the other one cropping up a lot these days is Magnesium. I have read that taking a multivitamin is a waste of time and money so I just want to narrow it down to the important and essential ones.
Any advice please? thanks
