[QUOTE="Tophat1900, post: 2044178, member: 362123"] It is in my opinion a very individual thing, I wouldn't bother with a multi because some of the vits and mins just don't get along with each other and the quality of where they were sourced from is debatable. . I do get my VitD, A,E, Mg, Ca, Zn checked multiple times a year. Having cystic fibrosis leaves me deficient in the key minerals and having Cystic fibrosis related diabetes and malabsorption issues kind of creates a double jeopardy situation in terms of maintaining healthy levels. So, I take Ubiquionol and glutathione as diabetes can leave you with low levels of both and so can cystic fibrosis. Also take vitD, VitA, Mg and zinc. I take R-lipoic acid for numbness in one leg which has since been completely reversed over time. I do take a multi B complex. and a probiotic which has helped with gut issues and as research has shown for people with cystic fibrosis, it improves lung function by about 10%.... I maintain good levels of E and Calcium without supplementing. So, all I can suggest is getting your levels checked to see if you need to supplement, at least these, D, A, E, Mg, Ca, Zn What one person needs, another doesn't, so always good to know what your levels are.
