2019 Vitamin Challenge

*sigh* I haven't been taking my vitamins at all. Some of them I actually need to take because of deficiencies but I HATE taking vitamins. I just hate it. But I'm trying to get in the habit of taking them because skipping out on them has not gone well for me like my hair is falling out. Going to get one of those weekly pill trays and set an alarm to remind me to take these dang pills. ugh.
 
I've started the Phytophanere phase of my pill popping. I've had success with it in the past, so I'm hopeful
As I look back on the Viviscal days, I have to say it definitely gave my hair growth a boost. I didn't notice it at first, and I was less than consistent, but my hair has thickened up some in addition to decent growth. It has not, and cannot, regrow my hairline without further medical help (due to auto-immune issues), but I'll give Viviscal its due. I'll go into maintenance mode and pop just one a day, separate from the Phyto. I'm afraid to go cold turkey off the Viviscal.
 
I can't get it together with these vitamins y'all. Can I crush the vitamins and take them that way? I struggle to swallow these vitamins and I feel like I am going to choke half the time, especially with the calcium/vit D vitamin that I have to take. It makes me not want to bother. Any recommendations for liquid vitamins?
 
I've been taking my probiotic regularly and that's about it. I did purchase some liquid vitamins - biotin and calcium/vitamin D. Also bought MSM crystals. Hopefully, they will arrive tomorrow so I can start taking them then.
 
Just got my liquid vitamins in the mail today! I bought bitoin, MSM crystals, and Calcium w/ Magnesium and vitamin D. I took all three and drank a little orange juice afterward. Sooooo for the MSM crystals it says to dissolve them in warm water and drink that. This tastes terrible! Ugh its so awful. But I know sulfur is good for overall health so I am going to stick with it.
The liquid biotin and Calcium/vit D weren't bad at all. Much much easier for me than pills.
 
1.) Your current length and the length you hope the vitamins will help you achieve (or other goal that you wish to achieve) CBL
2.) Any of the vitamins or supplements you're using for the health of your hair (or body in general) MSM, Vit C, Biotin, Collagen, BSO and Multi-Vit
3.) How long you intend to take the vitamins for When I run out of Biotin I don't plan to repurchase
 
I've been following my updated schedule, though not as consistently as I'd like. So busy.

Yesterday:
Morning
2 Phytophanere
Zinc
Prenatal
Omega + Vit. D Combo
Afternoon
Magnesium

Today, which is fairly standard:
Morning
2 Phytophanere
Omega + Vit. D Combo
Prenatal
Afternoon
1 Viviscal
Magnesium
 
I’ve been taking my liquid calcium/vit D and biotin supplements daily. Fell off taking the probiotic since it is a pill and the MSM crystals because it tastes awful.
Looking for a chewable iron supplement but not having much luck. May end up getting the Flintsones iron supplement instead.
 
Been consistently taking my vitamins. I have about two weeks of nioxin left and I'm not sure if I want to repurchase. I can't get with $40 a box. I'd have to wait until there's a buy 2 get 1 free sale and stock up.

Think I might go back to Beautifully Bamboo since I got a 25% code in my email today
 
Still taking my vitamins and seeing good results. My nails are still weak but they are growing at a good rate, hope they will strengthen over time. I’m shocked that my edges are growing back to the point that it looks like I have baby hair.
 
Still taking my supplements, however I still can't find a way to take in the collagen peptides without been bothered with the after taste, tried tea, coffee... Nothing seems to work yet.
 
Started taking MSM crystals again today. Ugh this stuff still tastes so terribly bitter. Had to chug it down like a shot. Thankfully there's not much of an after taste. May have to go back to the pills for that one.
