Some thoughts and discussions from me.
Make Nutrition Taste Good!
Hi guys 
I’m still in the mountains with my family having a blast. Yesterday morning after breakfast we headed down to Wild Basin Trailhead to get our hike on and see some gorgeous waterfalls.
Again, Shane and I hiked these trails a little over a year ago, venturing to Copeland, Calypso, and Ouzel Fall.
Such beauty
A little disclaimer: As always, I like to be real with you guys here. I’m about to talk vitamins, which I’ve been taking here in the mountains while away from home! The following post is sponsored by Fitfluential LLC on behalf of Vitafusion.
From time to time I talk about what I’m doing in addition to workouts and food to take care of my health. Today I wanted to talk a little bit about vitamins.
I know that with today’s agriculture, no matter how many colors of the rainbow I eat or how many servings of fish I make an effort to eat (with the best of intentions, really) I’m not going to consume all of the vitamins, nutrients, and minerals needed for my body to perform at its best capacity.
Since getting weekly acupuncture treatments, I’ve also been adding some vitamins to my daily menu – a complex B vitamin that’s supposed to help with blood sugar, as well as one to help my liver flush out toxins. In addition to those, I’ve recently added a multivitamin to the list!
I was excited to try out the VitaFusion MultiVites for a few reasons:
- Although I take other vitamins and supplements, multivitamins are kind of like an insurance – to make sure I’m covered A-Z
- They’re made with natural flavors and NO artificial dyes
- Hello, tasty!
I take most of my vitamins at breakfast, and I think I’m up to 5 or 6 different ones, now, and I actually always eat these at the very end. They’re like my vitamin dessert 
Ha!!
They taste like gummy bears, so it’s not as convenient to “forget” to take them as they are the big horse pills with fish oil that leave you with the furps (fish burps.) But aside from being super tasty, I also love the fact that they’re made in the USA and all natural.
What else I learned on this campaign was that Vitafusion not only makes multivitamins, but anything from calcium gummy vites to pre-natal to kids gummy vitamins.
Do you take a multivitamin? If so, which kind?
I use to take a mult-ivitaman (and even gummies at one point), but now I just drink amazing grass green super food. It takes some time to get use to the taste and texture, but it has everything a multi-vitamin has plus more!
Glad you’re having fun with the family! I take a multivitamin every day! I actually take Kaylin’s gummy vitamins that are organic 😉
I do not. I use to take the same one as you did but then was told to start taking a non-gummy prenatal one. Unfortunately after months of taking them I always felt off and realized it was the vitamins! I now take folic acid and calcium for my growing baby 🙂

I actually used to take those vitamins, but then started breaking out. Once I stopped taking them, I stopped breaking out. I doubt it’s related, but I’m paranoid. There’s a similar version that’s women specific I took for a while and really liked, but then ran out and never replaced them. I’m so lazy. I really do need to start taking vitamins.

Ah, that’s a bummer!
I am the queen of taking vitamins and definitely prefer a gummy! It definitely does feel like dessert!
Glad you’re having a good time in the mountains! Right now I’m taking a greens powder instead of a multivitamin and it’s been doing great things for me. I remember always leaning towards the gummy vitamins though!

Please tell me exactly how you make your eggs. I hardboiled mine then top on a salad with 1/2 avocado (plus other stuff) . But every time I put them in a pan the bottom is done before the whites on top, so I am forced to flip it, and therefore no dippy egg. I don’t want to overcook which would suck the nutritional quality from it. I have a gas stove. Low and High. Pretty intense.
I take: Multivitamin, B, C, D, and a couple others I’m testing out.
I use a crap load of coconut oil to cook them in, and then cook them on a medium or low-medium setting. Total cook time is about 5-7 minutes!
totally loved my gummies as well! Vitafusion has done it well! no dyes makes me happy!

I personally think NUTRITION tastes scrumptious! 😀
