Reddit reviews Seeking Health Optimal Vitamin D Drops, Potent 2,000 IU Dose of Vitamin D per Drop, Pure Olive Oil and Vitamin D as Cholecalciferol, High-Potency Liquid Vitamin D, Vegetarian-Friendly, 900 Drops

Not sure, but I've been taking an oral drop in the morning every day for the past 6 months, my Vitamin D level went from below range to 57ng/mL which is near the max, doctor said to reduce my intake to every other day now.

Edit: A few people have PM'd me about what I take, it's Liquid Vitamin D3, 2,000 IU a drop, 900 drops, $20.

I had a similar situation to you and it was suggested to me by my doctor and nutritionist to take Vit D liquid drops instead of capsules. They are easier for your body to process that capsules.

Yes I usually had low D.

I took Optimal Vitamin D3 Liquid for 2 weeks, then stopped to see if it helps me.

Besides that, I don't take supplements. (do you?) I eat mostly salmon and beef rib. I think they have omega-3, DHEA, don't they?

Maybe I'm not eating enough?

All of the routes in my area are mostly mounted, so I can't relate to you CCAs that have walking routes, but even so my feet ached terribly for the first year, so much so that I woke up every morning and limped to the bathroom to start my day. I took Ibuprofen, tried $45 Superfeet insoles that someone suggest below, bought so many pairs of shoes and boots to deal with New England weather and none of it really helped.

All of a sudden leading up to Christmas the pain went away. Personally I think it was mind over matter, I got so caught up in the hectic Christmas schedule that I forgot to even think about my feet hurting.

I worked at a factory for 7 years and was on my feet for 8 hours a day on a hard cement floor and my feet never hurt like they did with this job. I'm also in a small town (30 city routes) and was farmed out to other towns for work until recently. I do believe the trick is just to stick with it until the pain disappears. And it will. Magically. Just one day.

I can't tell you how much I relate to your story. Up until November, I had little CCA work and was always on call if I wanted to work, was never scheduled. But busy season came, people retired and now I'm 2nd in line to become regular and am able to get hold downs and whatnot. The CCA slogan should be "it gets better".

The one thing I recommend, especially if you live in a wintery area like I do, is liquid Vitamin D. I use this stuff and swear by it. You don't realize how low you are on Vitamin D and your energy suffers and you feel every body ache. It is highly concentrated, I take 4 drops every morning and after a month or so felt a great improvement. It's a bit pricey at $20 a bottle, but it lasts a whole year.

If you want to continue the ibuprofen route, I found Advil and Walgreens generic brand to work best.

I get the melatonin at Walmart and I do need 10mg. I've tried the lower doses and they don't work for me at all.

---------------------

I must add that I use blue light blocking glasses in the evening on the recommendation of my doctor and it really does work remarkably well. I put them on around 7:30PM and I'm out by 9PM.

There are a ton of them out there. Just make sure they have orange lenses. These are the ones I use with my glasses.

A link to a post I made about skin care.

https://www.reddit.com/r/carnivore/comments/beeczy/carnivore_skin_care_anyone_with_skin_issues_or/

Multivitamins really aren't worth it. The past few years some research has emerged showing that they really don't do much for you. You'll often hear that the only thing multivitamins are good for is to make really expensive urine.

The three most important supplements you can take are:

Vitamin D

If you don't have an issue with taking FishOil supplements, purchase some for the essential Omega3s and 6s.

And if you think you're low on Iron, purchase some Iron pills and take 1 everday or every other day(if it bothers your stomach). To help with absorption, take it with Vitamin C.

These are really the most important ones to supplement with since you're probably not getting enough of them. Vitamin D is probably the most important. Definitely buy that vile. It should last you about 5-6 years. Take it every other day with a meal taht you know has some fat content as Vit.D is fat soluble.

Here you go, 2000iu per drop, 900 drops per bottle. So that's 5 drops to make 10,000iu, that's 180 servings for $18.95. Plus liquid vitamins are always better than capsules.

I'm currently taking this one, but I appreciate the post for viable alternatives to add to my list.

Edit:
I find that most multi-vitamins lack sufficient quantity of electrolytes and Vitamin D, and usually lack K2-M7, so I also supplement:

• Cod Liver Fish Oil for Vitamins A, D, and E (and DHA/EPA). I also add in liquid d3 drops, for around 5000IU per day.
  
• K2
  
• Magnesium Citrate
  
• Potassium Bicarbonate
