Supplements ??

[Sam99]

Hello all ,

My first Health Matters post , so here goes :

I’m 55 now. I used to cycle everywhere, run or rather Jog and row.
I think I was fit – ish.
About 5 years ago I changed career, and went off-Shore for the first time.
I’m still there , but am developing aches and pains , sore knees , right elbow ( I broke it years ago ) and starting to generally feel my age I suppose.
I have had a medical and my Blood Pressure, Peak Flow and Cholesterol are fine: Pretty good in fact. A little over weight .....

My question is then:

Should I be taking a multi-Vit / Ginseng / Cod liver oil pill daily??
Are there benefits or are they just placebos??

Can anyone speak from a positive experience using supplements??

Any constructive comments or advice will be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks,

Sam.
