i stopped taking any vitamins, and exercising, and need to get back on track for my health
for ms, i take:
vitamin d, b-complex with folic acid, fish oil
that's it though, do you guys take any other supplements for ms?
i've heard primrose oil, antioxidants too, but not sure which ones to look into. i can't take coenzyme q because it would make bc ineffective
does yoga help a lot? i usually just eliptical and small amounts of weights, very interested in yoga or pilates for balance and the relaxation yoga offers
any advice is appreciated!

Otherwise I try to eat a balanced diet with little processed food. (if it's in a packet, I think twice)
Exercise - I do Aqua aerobics, and am beginning to notice improvement.
Magnesium is helpful for leg cramps, spasms, and keeps you from getting constipated.
Acetyl-L-carnitine has been studied in MS due to its potential effects on fatigue. Also, 600 mg. Malic Acid, 2x day with some magnesium (300 mg) if you have fatigue. This has been shown to be helpful and reducing pain and fatigue in Fibro and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
Like Jill said, a healthy diet should do the trick.
