Hi everyone.
Before becoming vegan a few weeks ago, I occasionally took a women's one-a-day vitamin, but in general I just depended on my varied diet to provide me with all the vitamins I need.
I have been reading on here about the importance of taking a B-12 supplement every day, so I started taking the one-a-days daily now. But I still feel I don't need a supplement for most of the vitamins in these one-a-days. I am sure I am getting more than a 100% of my RDA for most of these vitamins in my diet.
So, I was wondering what multi-vitamin other vegans are taking. So.....what are you taking? (and I am really looking for specific brands, not just what vitamins are in it)
One last thought on B12 too.....I know "they" always say that you don't absorb 100% of the vitamins you take in supplements. So, if you only take one supplement a day which has the RDA for B12, is it logical to assume you are not actually getting the RDA amount of B12?
