Dina, I sent you an email!!! Yes they are the Complete Essentials for women 1...there is also a complete ess 2 BUT those are only for post-menopausal women. There are also chewables with iron if you don't want to swallow whole, teen formula (if we have any here) and mens formula. All vitamins will help BUT those that you absorb the comple amount will be the best. OTC vitamins generally WON'T do that for you and if they do they will be very $$$. beautyhealthandyou.myarbonne.com

Amber - No email. :o\ I think OH is having problems though because I haven't been getting my email notifications on the groups again for a couple weeks. ::sigh:: Dina

Oh, not so young, Amber -- but thanks! I will check the company out. Do you take them 1x or 2x a day? M.

Once a day or 2x a day, Marla? I mean when you switch to the Centrum swallows? M.

Just once a day - that's all I'm taking now with the centrum adult chewables as well. I go for my bloodwork next week and my appt with the surgeon is on the 14th, so I'll find out then if he wants me to supplement with anything else, or switch. mgm

Hi. I've been on One a Day for Women for the last 6 weeks. I just got my bloodwork back and they said that my protein and everything else was normal. Aristea

Hi Mauren In addition to my calcium, my b12 subliguial and my magnesium...I have started taking "one source" prenatal and "one source" hair,nails and skin. Got both at walmart for about $5.00 each. Stood there comparing vits for a long time. They stack up rather well, even having more of some things than others. I too was on Fred and them. I can tell you I feel so much better taking these. I readily feel the difference. especially energy wise. I still cut mine up. Probably will for a long time. Anything I have to swallow I cut in half maybe more depending on how big it is. That's only because I'm paranoid. (about that dime size opening...) Anyway someone on the main msg board posted that per her surgeon and her support group the best vitamins are the ones you take, period. Nothing scientific. It's a matter of taking them consistanly. I know that this is open for debate. But I've also know people who take regular old vits and labs and health are all fine...Anyway you have to find what works for you. BTW, my doc suggests Centrum. I comapre them to the prenatal because I didn't want to have to take an additional iron. They passed and that's what I take. Good luck kym -55

Kym, I like the sound of these vitamins but I guess the question is how quickly and how well are they absorbed? Also, do you take them once a day? I will go to Walmart tomorrow and see if they have them. Thanks much for the tip! Maureen
