Supplements I was on with my Naturopathic Doctor

The six month treatment was the change in diet, rest, reduce stress, start taking vitamins and supplements daily. The vitamins and supplements I was taking (and really you shouldn't take these on your own but only under the care of a naturopathic doctor) are:

* Simplex F (1 tablet 2x daily, all cycle long)
(http://www.standardprocess.com/)

* Spectra 305-P (2 capsules 2x daily post ovulation until start of next period)
(http://www.integrativeinc.com/)

* Lipotrepein (2 capsules 2x daily with meals, this is to help with liver detoxification)
(http://www.thorne.com/)

* Daily multi-vitamin (1 tablet daily, I buy mine at a health food store)

* Folic acid (1 drop in juice, liquid drops which was incidental you could also take tablets)

* Vit. B supplement (I wasn't good about taking this but it is supposed to help with stress, B vitimins tend to upset people's stomach's so be sure to take with meals and not on an empty stomach)

* 500 mg of vitamin C (2x daily, I did chewable tablets)

* Quercetin (this is a bioflavenoid that was discovered at the same time Vitamin C was discovered, it works and an anti-inflamatory and I was taking this for my respiratory allergies -- the activated form works as well as Allegra for me -- amazing)
