daily dose

This is my daily dose of encapsulated vitamins, minerals and other supplements.

It looks like a lot of pills, and it is (11!), but the scary part is that I eat them all in one gulp with just a little bit of water. I’m a pill masta’

Contents include:

Fish Oil with Omega-3 Fatty Acids.
I figure the japanese do pretty well on a diet of mostly fish. I don’t eat a ton of fish so this is my fish supplement. It’s supposed to be a cardiovascular booster…and as a white, overweight, american male, I need all the help with that I can get! I also like the fishy taste they produce about 20 minutes after ingestion. It’s the taste of health!

Glucosamine Chondroitin MSM – 1,500mg
This is for cartilage and connective tissue repair. It’s kind of an old persons supplement but arthritis runs in my family and my knees are already pretty messed up. I figure supporting my joints now, while they’re relatively healthy is a good plan.

Vitamin C – 1000mg
I buy into the popular opinion that vitamin C is good for you.

Ibuprofen – 400mg
I’m old and have various aches and pains. I don’t always include these, but more often then not I do. I once read an interview with a brain researcher and they said everyone should take 1 ibuprofen per day. Sounds good to me.

Centrum – everything and the kitchen sink.
I know I’m doubling up on a few things with this, but I like to know I’m getting a little bit of everything, even if my body can’t metabolize all of it.

Sometimes a child, who is not trying to grow to bea strong man or woman, lies in bed so long and is soslow in dressing that there is no time for breakfast, andhe just snatches a mouthful or two before running off toschool. This is a very bad plan indeed, for soon thatchild will begin to have an empty feeling inside; hewill become cross and fretful and will be stupid inschool work and dull at play.

14 * HEALTHY LIVING needs plenty of food, and no child can be of very muchuse to himself or anyone else unless he has started offin the morning with a good breakfast. Most children need a little lunch in the middle ofthe morning, for it is a long time between breakfastand luncheon or dinner time. So it is a good plan totake with you some bread and butter or crackers orcookies to eat about eleven oclock. You will read later in this book about the foods thatmake up a good diet for a boy or girl of your age. Forbreakfast you should have fruit, cereal, bread and but-ter, and milk, or other foods equally good. A littlemeat or fish or eggs should be eaten sometime duringthe day, if possible; but plenty of milk will do instead,if these things are too expensive. Green vegetablesor fruit should form a part of each of the three meals.You will learn later what each of these kinds of fooddoes for the body and why you need them all.
