[QUOTE="worrywart, post: 878375, member: 45687"] Personally i think the supplements MAY have a some effect on my anxiety but i believe my anxiety is largely down to my huge fear of contracting T1. For all those who are T1 by the way i realise its probably not that bad but for me it is my big C. So basically i think no is the answer I try to take vegan/veggie supplements wherever possible, whilst i was in the UK i used Healthspan a lot although since they did their "restructuring" and moved their distribution centre from guernsey to mainland Europe their delivery service has gone **** and customer service is poor Anyway these are the brands and quantities i can remember having taken over the last 3 years: [U]When i was in the UK:[/U] [URL]http://www.healthspan.co.uk/products/multivitality-for-vegetarians[/URL] 1 a day [URL]http://www.healthspan.co.uk/products/ginkgo-biloba-6000mg[/URL] 1 a day [URL]http://www.healthspan.co.uk/products/vitamin-b-complex[/URL] 1-3 a day (they are pretty weak in comparison to other brands) [URL]http://www.solgaronline.co.uk/Nicotinamide-Vitamin-B3-550mg--100-Vegicaps_p_597.html[/URL] what i have taken has varied, most of the time 1 a day but sometimes i ramp it up to 3 a day [URL]http://www.healthspan.co.uk/products/zinc[/URL] 1 a day [URL]http://www.healthspan.co.uk/products/kelp-extract[/URL] 1 a day [URL]http://www.jarrow.com/product/75/Methyl_B-12[/URL] 1 a day (you will see they are the 5000mcg but after a few B12 tests that were crazy high, i stepped down to the 1000mcg) (not that crazy high B12 is a bad thing, i just didnt see the point in spending more for higher dosage) [URL]http://www.sourcenaturals.com/products/GP1788/[/URL] 3 a day (the link says 1000UI but mine are 400UI) Organic raw spirulina (i forget the brand) i took these on/off but average 5-10 500mcg pills a day Organic raw chlorella, didnt take these so much but occasionally ergo i cant remember the brand or dosage Since moving from the UK to Houston and now Calgary i obviously dont have access to healthspan so now i use a lot of NOW supplements.
