I swear, I take more supplements than food!
- Rainbow Light prenatal vitamin/mineral - 1/day
- Nettle Leaf - 950mg/day
- Green Pastures Cod Liver Oil - 2 capsules/day
- HMF Forte (probiotic) - 1 capsule/day
- Grapefruit Seed Extract - 7 drops/day
- Vitamin K Tonic - 3 dropperfuls/day
- Evening Primrose Oil (started this week) - 1 capsule/day (will increase weekly)
- 1 clove garlic/day swallowed whole with milk
- Apple Cider Vinegar - 1 Tbsp/day
The last (ACV) was added after my midwife appointment on Monday to help with the GBS. All I can say is YUCK! Even adding the 1 Tbsp to a full glass of water, it still tastes awful! Not that the Vitamin K tincture tastes all that great, seeing as it's preserved in a grain alcohol mixture, but at least it's not a lingering taste. I take the ACV first, then Vitamin K, then finish up with Grapefruit Seed Extract (which is quite bitter) in a little bit of orange juice, and I can still taste the ACV afterwards.
But it's worth it... it's all for the health of our baby.
