I take One A Day women's formula vitamins and yes they work wonders. Im also vegetarian so I use it in combination with B12, Iron etc. to keep me healthy. The only problem that Ive ever encountered with vitamins is if they contain niacin. Niacin sucks, although it's not lethal or anything. You can just get all red and hot to the touch for 15 minutes or so while it flushes out of you.

I take One A Day Womens formula and am a vegetarian also.... what other vitamins do you take? I take another kind too, but I cant remember... something acid. Foric acid, I think too. Do they have a protien vitamin or something in pill form that I dont have to drink?

A protein pill? lol...I dont think so?
I just east lotsa beans and veggies! tofu too! yum!

I dunno, haven't tried em- but I was looking at the ingredients and the 'weight smart' vitamins have ingredients that are contraindicated to take with my thyroid meds, so read the label carefully if you take any meds!

I take one-a-day women's vitamins, btw.

i also take the one-a-day women's vitamins.
i'm not POSITIVE, but i think the weight smart ones just have more EGCG in them to help your metabolism break down food. green tea extract, i think? i drink 1-2 cups of green tea a day and as long as you eat healthy and exercise, that's all you need. it's not going to be a significant weight loss just with using the vitamins (versus NOT using them) -- however, i guess it all depends on the person.

Oh well yeah. I knew they had EGCG in them and I dont need them for extreme weight loss. I work out about 4 times a week and eat healthy and just wanted something to "help the process". Thanks!

I took the weight smart vitamins for a while, but stopped because they make me nauseous sometimes. I didn't really notice a significant difference.

I take the weightsmart ones and I work out a lot, eat healthy, etc. and I am at a very healthy weight and feel great. I don't know if they really make that much of a difference, but if you do take them make sure you drink lots of water and take them w/ a meal or else you'll feel really sick for about a minute. I just take them cuz my step-dad works for Bayer and we get them free.

I tired them & personally they gave me stomach pains. No idea why, but they were very bad for me.

[begraven.livejournal.com]

iirc, weightsmart ones have aspartame in them, I think that is why I decided against them. Aspartame can cause nausea, stomach pain, and headaches. Those are just the gentle side effects of aspartame.

I can't remember what I take instead, I think it is Women's One-a-Day

Maybe they figure if you're sick, you won't eat and will lost weight...Very evil genius.

i had some of those, and they made me absolutely sick.
i dont know why...but they did. and i puked them up (involuntarily) on several occasions.
the only thing that they have in them is the chemical found in green tea that can help speed up metabolism. i, personally, would suggest taking plain green tea suppliments if that's what you're going for. and besides...green tea is good for you.
those vitamins were just...ew.
