yeah, my bf has the B12 vitamins & i really felt a difference with them.. maybe it's bc im vegetarian but i just bought the bottle today.. dunno if im susceptible to the 'placebo effect' also.. but hell, i did my little research online & did see it's good for vegetarians to take, so what the hell if YOU think it makes you feel healthy, and you've read a bit on it, then there should be no problem

Originally posted by squirrelly bahahaha way to get immature! Awe, did I hurwt yow wittel feeewings? Definition of placebo a. A substance containing no medication and prescribed or given to reinforce a patient's expectation to get well. b. An inactive substance or preparation used as a control in an experiment or test to determine the effectiveness of a medicinal drug. You weren't taking any substances AT ALL (prescribed OR given). Which means - no placebo. Again - stopping to take vitamins does not mean you became some scientist doing an experiment to see if they worked - it means just that. You stopped taking vitamins and your body started feeling worse so you started taking them again. No plaebo, at all. Your misusage of the word only reinforces the fact that you're a stupid bitch, anyway

LOL you are one of the most hypocritical posters here. If you're going to call me a stupid bitch, at least don't be a dumbass twat yourself and act like a cu*t when I throw something back at you. You call me a dumbass bitch and then act like some 'higher than thou' cretin when I respond in the same tune. Pot calling kettle black my friend. If you dish it out, then be prepared to take it back. Obviously you and I don't like each other, so do both of us a favour and save your brilliant responses for someone else who will appreciate them.

Placebo effect:
a reaction to a placebo manifested by a lessening of symptoms or the production of anticipated side effects.

Many people argue that vitamins are placebos and thus create the placebo effect. Please read previous posts for further clarification.

Moving on...

Someone mentioned fish oils. I have never taken them but I was wondering what their benefits are. A friend of mine told me it makes him able to concentrate better.

You're getting all riled up! It's gotta be the cutest thing ever! I bet your glasses are about to break from you just glaring at the screen!

You're actually getting it all wrong. I'm always a cunt when it comes to your postings because you ARE a stupid bitch. You sit on your stupid fucking pedestal and try to act like you're this stupid innocent girl (the stupid part is right, anyway) when in reality - you're no better than anyone else on this forum. You march in here acting like your opinion is the best out of everyones and since you're so "niiiiiiiiiiiiiice" that we should listen to the stupidity that spews out of your stupid ass fingers.

PS - take some advice from ducky about getting the pixie look right. Your look simply translates into "dyke" not "cute pixie".

i used to take fish oils, or the cod liver i think i took both, but anyway, i could barely swallow the damn pills .. however, they are supposed to help you with the growth of beautiful hair & nails & other benefits. i stopped taking them bc at the time i was very acne prone & that seemed to make me break out as if i was on a chocolate spree.. i suppose adding more oil to my system wasn't a bright idea. but if you don't have a prob with acne (now i don't) i suggest you try them out.

Hmmm, luckily I don't have an acne problem, but I have always been a little on the oilier-skinned side... not sure if I am willing to risk spending the money on them if they might cause acne. However, during the winter time it gets super dry here, so maybe it wouldn't be so bad then.

Slylee, you said you take them... how do you like them?

Jenny, where do you get the vitamin K? I can't find that anywhere except for cream form (to put under the eyes).

I've always wondered how anyone could argue otherwise.

yeah, i dont have acne anymore but i dont think i want to risk taking them and getting horrible skin when my bf was going through this detox, he was taking these vitamins that are really really good for you, within a week i started noticing he was in a much better mood than usual, more lovey with me & even hornier lol, his demeanor also changed, he kinda looked sick before, and now he just looked like he was full of energy and life, he even told me he felt a huge difference, the supplements seem great, however, expensive.. but they're good bc i learned that most 'multivitamins' only have a 20% absorption rate.. i think if you have a healthy diet you should be getting all your vitamins & if you any excess your body will simply excrete them..

Vitamin K!? Why would any healthy person ever take vitamin K?

If I was to give someone a placebo and it worked via the placebo effect. It stands to reason that when I stopped giving it to them the placebo effect would cease too, and they would feel worse again.

So ceasing a therapy is not effective way to test whether its perceived benefits were due to the placebo effect... at all. The test is completely useless. The only way to test it would be to have someone administer a substance to you on a regular basis, without your knowing whether you were taking the vitamins or a control substance that has no physiological effect. You would log how well you felt and then see if there was any correlation between how you felt and what you were taking.

Anything short of that is a completely meaningless test.


But back on topic.. something like fish oil would be the only sort of supplement I would consider taking, because it seems fairly natural.. oil extracted from a fish.. and I know I don't eat enough seafood. I've also heard that our natural caveman diet contained a lot more omega-3 fatty acids that we don't get from a modern diet.

In terms of common vitamins and minerals, I refuse to believe that you can't get your RDI of them just by eating a balanced diet... Just eat more fruit/veggies people... and red meat if you're one of those sickly vitB/iron-deficient people.

Not just vegetarians. Everybody should take B12 supplements. Vegans, Vegetarians, Meat Eaters.
