Hey, same with me.
>Anyone taking multivitamin-multimineral supplements?
Definitely, no noticeable effect other than making me feel good
because I'm taking them.

I can't bear the thought of all those cod swimming around without
their livers. Although I suppose it does keep hoardes of underwater
fish surgeons in gainful employment.
Garlic with most meals apart from cornflakes and even then I'm
tempted. Whoever invented garlic is a *top man* in my books. I know a
practice manager whose surname is Garlic. I joked with ther once that
when she had grandchildren she would be a "garlic nan". And as
coincidence would have it, I have to go now as my Mixed Vegetable
Balti has just been delivered.
