Hello all!
I have been talking various vitamins and supplements for over a year now and now that I am becoming more raw and trying to eat balanced am I still needing these extra pills and powders?
Is there one good daily vitamin ? At one time I was taking upwards of 20 pills a day. In the last 6 months I switched to half pills and half powders for the absorbability factor.
I dont like spending the money on all the pills but at the same time I want to make sure im getting everything I need. I went thru a car accident and had many broken bones so I really want to make sure I keep them strong!
any thoughts on E3 Live? or life extension vitamin powder?
any help would be appreciated.

Thank you so much for your feedback :)
I guess I have to disagree that supplements are not needed. I was vegan/ rawish for the last year (veg for several years before that), and tired all the time after switching to vegan. I could barely walk around. I just felt like I had bricks for legs. I didn’t want to take supplements, because I believed I was eating healthy (I was and am) and didn’t need anything- about a month ago, I finally started a supplement for B-12 and totally feel like myself again. It is the only thing I have changed in my diet and it makes a world of difference. I hope to stop it someday, but for now, I know it is what my body needs.
I think each of us is in a different stage in our transition out of cooked food and meat products and should listen to our bodies.
I have read tons of articles on the effectiveness of supplements and how they are not regulated properly. I take a dehydrated form of supplement- organic from our local grocer.
Dear Forum Members,
I agree that “vitamins” are a questionable source for adequate nutritional supplementation. However, it is very challenging to recieve all the nutrients we need on a daily basis from our diet alone. It is often difficult to get fresh, organic produce that has the optimal nutritional value.
The next best thing I have found to being so wealthy and priveleged to get fresh produce from around the world available to me is a live, whole food based juice powder called “The Feast”. What a godsend to have such a food product available.
Lovingly, Linda
