Your Supplement Programme

Vitamins and Mineral

• A good multivitamin and mineral supplement eg Meno Plus
• B-complex (containing 50 mg of most of the B vitamins, taken daily)
• Chromium polynicotinate or picolinate (200mcg per day)
• Zinc citrate (30 mg per day)
• Co-enzyme Q10 30mg twice per day
• Omega 3 oils (EPA 700mg, DHA 500mg)

At the end of three months you should reassess your condition and adjust your supplement programme accordingly.

It is very important when you are choosing supplements, for you to choose only the highest quality supplements you can find. This is because many of the poorer quality brands often have large quantities of fillers and other non-essential ingredients - which in some cases could actually be harmful to you - and the vitamins and minerals they contain may be in very low, ineffective dosages. You may also find that the higher doses you require are not generally available to the public.
