I have been deficient in all vitamins and started to drink the neurishment shakes my levels have started to go normal but to be fair I haven't noticed much difference with the fibro xxx
I have started taking vitamin B12 and I have noticed an increase of energy and feel more awake not as foggy
I am chronically deficient in vitamin D. I notice that if I take the dose my Dr tells me to, I feel much better. As for other vitamins that I take, they're only ones recommended because of conditions I have that put me at risk or because I have labs showing I'm low or I have a deficiency. My multivitamin is because I need such high levels of certain things nd thats my extra boost. Taking ones you don't need would just be making your pee expensive. Ask your Dr if you think you may have a deficiency or need something because there may be another cause for the symptoms. Otherwise, if you eat well and with a variety of fresh produce, lean meats, and whole grains, you should be fine.
I myself have found through educating myself and putting myself on trials so to say that yes vitamins can help....I found out the carpel tunnel can be a vitamin B6 deficiency so I started taking them...Also did the same with insufficient Magnesium being the problem with my restless leg syndrome...All of my vitamins I take until finished the bottle I then do a test to see if I can do without and usually find out I can not. As for magnesium I have just recently found out that it was causing me to be more itchy so had to stop taking them....
Yes I also find a health shake in the morning a much better option that multivitamins as some of them are just too strong and give me migraines or make me nauseous
