> Thank very much larry
> So larry , what would you recomend me from that big list??? . Im am raising the fish oil , and taking vitamin C 100mg/day . What else do you think its would be good to add??? vitamin b??You could take 20 times that amount of vitamin C, but I'd recommend at least 10 times what you're already taking. The B vitamin complex is very important. But, so are the few minerals I mentioned. I'd recommend you take everything on that list. Depression can cause problems in all of those, or be caused by deficiencies in any of them.
> I have another question . Once , a friend of mine , told me that taking vitamins could be bad, cause once you stopped taking them , your body feels the necesity to continue taking them and you start feel very bad . is this true??
It has been shown to be true for vitamin C. People who have used large amounts for years can develop scurvy if they stop using it. But, the body quickly recognizes that it isn't getting the vitamin C it needs, and the scurvy goes away (if there is enough vitamin C in the diet).
There is unlikely to be such a problem for the other vitamins, but if you're worried about it, don't used them every day. Instead, use them perhaps three times a week. The intermittent supply will keep your body from becoming dependent.
