my son takes Liquid Vitamin B complex with folic acid. 300mcg per day. Completely fixed his fatigue. He used to say several times a day that he was tired. Now he never says it.
Tobytyler..how much CoW10 do you take?
WOW, this is the first time I've heard about this! Thanks so much for this info, Lisa!
Be very careful what you believe from reading! Sometimes the writer has a vested interest in getting you to buy their product. I think this may be the case here. Unless they can back it up by scientific evidence.
No, just meaning generally. So many people read that such and such supplement is good for this and that. Quite often it is written by someone who sells just the product they need to fix it. I am just saying don't believe all you read without checking if there is scientific evidence to back it up. This is just common sense.
Yes, I concur.
What is ‘Charlie horses’ ? Sorry, I am Located in Australia …we might have different terminology
FDA drugs are also helping millions! Not everything can be handled with supplements! I never like to discourage people from taking their meds, as I don't know how much their life depends on those meds!

Oh, agree with you PCM to a certain extent. Any supplement should be checked with various sources and that it is not contraindicated with certain medications (or meds with herbs and vice versa). However, you will find very little actual scientific evidence to back up 90% of supplements. Reason, because the medical community is lacking in that research since drugs bring in more money. There may be no scientific evidence on certain things but overwhelming anecdotal evidence. Also, scientific evidence is constantly evolving. ie. take calcium, now don't take it...butter causes heart attacks, now butter is a good fat, and the list goes on and on and on. Meanwhile other FDA approved DRUGS are killing people and the scientific evidence doesn't show that for 10 or more years until enough people have had complications or worse, die. Even so, many of those drugs are still on the market.
