True life: I’m addicted to vitamins. I’ve been taking these supplements religiously for a little over a year now and there’s no turning back.
Some are for health, most are for vanity but they’re all essential.
1.Women’s ‘Ultra Mega Active’ Multivitamin
This multivitamin has all of the necessaries: Vitamin D, Calcium, Iron etc. but it also has an added metabolism boost from green tea leaf extracts and B-12 for energy. When I don’t take this multivitamin, I truly feel a difference.
2. Spirulina
I’ve just recently incorporated spirulina into my daily regimen; It’s a green little pill filled with blue-green microalgae. It’s nutrient dense and a natural source of protein and amino acids. Like 5 kale salads in one pill.
3. Cold-pressed Flax Seed Oil
Flax seed oil is a rich source of Omega-3 fatty acids, a good fat that our bodies need to work at their best. I’ve also found ground flax seeds which are great to sprinkle over oatmeal or throw in a smoothie. Flax seed is an anti-inflammatory so it prevents bloating and water retention.
4. Biotin
The beauty supplement that needs no introduction. Biotin is the ultimate for hair, skin and nails.
5. Echinacea
This herb ensures your immune system is 100% and I hate being sick so as a preventative measure, I take Echinacea daily.
I usually buy my vitamins at Whole Foods or GNC but every time I'm in Paris, I raid their pharmacies for herbal supplements.
Also essential a weekly pill container!
Have I sold you yet? Are you ready to ride the vitamin train? Or are you already like me, addicted? What do you take? How often? And what can I add to my already insane daily regimen? Please share, don't hold back!

I bought the women's ultra mega pack, bioton and spirulina. I'm interested to know if you've seen any changes after taking them for over a year?
Also, do you have any secrets to washing down the pills? I am super sensitive to the taste and smell.
Hey Allison,
I have definitely seen a change over the past year. The Biotin has made my nails so much stronger andmy hair grow faster.
The women's ultra mega pack has increased my energy so much that when I don't take the vitamins, I feel a bit drained. The spirulina is new, but more greens definitely can't hurt your diet.
As for the taste, I'm sensitive as well. Take them with hot tea ( peppermint or lemon) or orange, grapefruit, cranberry juice.
Hope this helps!
A diverse range of vitamins as well. I guess performers and active entertainers need the variants to sustain their performance and looks.
