Thank you for taking the time and making this video. Been waiting for your input on what you think is good at Costco. I'll be going to soon and this list is really helpful on getting what is helpful and not waste money on things that are not necessary. Thank you.
You should create an app where you have a list of supplements where they are approved. Or where you can scan barcodes to see if they’re approved. Please do another supplement haul at WHOLE FOODS
I appreciate the way you describe how we should discern the Natural Flavors. I don't feel like a company that uses clean, organic ingredients is going to use crappy natural flavors just cuz they could get away with it on the label.
I always had weight issues, largely because I was drawn to food in an unhealthy way. As a child, i would eat on the sly or distract my parents in order to sneak food. At age 10, I weighed over 200 pounds and was put on my first diet. I tried many different diets and my weight swung dramatically up and down. In 2017, my parents became the legal guardians of two infant twin girls. I had given up on losing weight by then and accepted that I would probably die soon. But my father reached out to me and said “I need you to live. ” That became my wake-up call. Keto was the big diet trend around that time. So I bought two books about keto. And started reading. This was the turning point for me. Almost immediately some fantastic changes occurred. I started losing weight rapidly and my symptoms of uncontrolled blood sugar disappeared. I’m happy I made this choice.
I work at Costco and this is a question many ask. Thank you for your videos. I love all the info as to what to take and why and why it works or doesn’t. Can’t wait to actually share the I fo with those tht ask. Thank you
Great vid Thomas! Costco has some good stuff and some things to avoid when it comes to vitamins. Appreciate your work and hoping 2022 will bring us some more collaborations with you & Bobby @ Flav City! ☦️
Great video, ACV capsules come with the Mother, I prefer those when away from home. Also for MCT I stick to Organic 100% C8, also Organic Virgin Cod Liver Oil is my favorite. Don’t settle for Costco, great store but not for this type of supplements.
Since the title started with vitamins, I kind of hoped he would delve into Multi-vitamins and the best one to buy at Costco. Still a good informative video.
Love love your videos. I've been binge watching them. Cant concrntrate on anything else. Excited to get everything gathered and get started on this. I have a question about the calm magnesium product though. Isn't that the Citrate form that gives you the runs? I thought the calming form was magnesium glycinate. Why would the company call it Calm if its not the calming form?
Stomach sensitivity is one thing that I consider as well as gastrointestinal sensitivity (gas) when I consider buying and taking supplements yet there is Some real nice take away advice on a few supplements and powders as well as going over the ingredients other topics like zinc Which I have a stomach sensitivity to and any b complex with 50mg of most of the b's leaves my very gassy.. I take a smaller lesser known one by Sundown which has plenty of folate, b1, b2 and b12 and a seperate 1000mcg biotin from Now Brand a 25mg zinc from Solgar and sometimes a Zinc Supplement that I cut in half or quarters chew with other food or insert in an empty gel cap and swallow.. that one is from Megafood and I make sure I take that with a cheap form of magnesium oxide to prevent any type of stomach upset.
On the COQ10, I prefer Ubiquinol with PQQ. Ubiquinone is fine but you need to make sure you take Vitamin E with it for good absorption. I found it kind of concerning that many of the brand names were sort of a play on the term "Ubiquinol" but were actually ubiquinone. I didnt see enough of the labeling to determine if they contained Vitamin E or advised you to take it with Vitamin E.
You made a very good point May I ask which brand of COQ10 are you taking, the vitamin E we take should be natural not synthetic. Appreciate your help 🙏
Costco is so inconsistent for supplements, they selection changes monthly it seems. Especially in Canada, it's amazing how Costco's offerings change just by crossing the 49th parallel. For example at my local Costco the only magnesium available is citrate.
Thomas (or do you go by Tom/Thom?), will you do an Amazon version of this video. I know Amazon has 50 thousand things for the same thing, but it would be helpful to see what you would buy and what you would not buy for the same thing in the sense vitamins and supplements. I am learning so much from your Costco videos, but a lot of the items you have said, "I wouldn't buy that here."

I had read that stevia can inhibit the absorption of B12. I have issues with that. And for a while there I was using a lot of stevia. And whenever I stopped. My B level is rose.
the only vitamin/mineral/supplement i buy at costco is Ubiquinol because its the lowest price i can find i wish they would carry stuff like liposomal quali-c , previe shilajit, ksm66 ashwangdha etc
Melatonin regulates mitochondrial homeostasis, something to keep in mind if you have damaged mitochondria. Those that like to research can find more about it with the search terms: melatonin mitochondria and cellular bioenergetics.
@@PunaniJohnny Personally after trying many fish oil supplements I felt immediate effects from the cod liver oil especially the vitamin D that’s already in it so killing two birds with one stone you just can’t beat it but that’s an anecdotal statement. I would recommend it for sure
@@PunaniJohnny Just look at the EPA and DHA content on cod liver oil. It is much higher than fish pills and usually a tsp serving. Honestly, the taste isn't too fishy nor is it very thick. I got one with a lemon flavor. I always drink some tea right after to make sure I don't have fishy taste on my tongue. Ironically, the cod liver oil has never given me fish burps.
For the Pure Alaska Omega, have you tried looking at the one that has the yellow looking pills instead of the orange looking ones? It seems to have a better ratio and amount of dhea.
Is there a COQ10 that doesn't have all the bad stuff in it? Even the one he said is decent has potassium sorbate and natural flavors(whatever that means) listed as the second ingredient.
Thomas, I'm new to your channel (good work, I like it). Have you done a video on yogurt? It's been my breakfast of choice for years but trying to go more low carb now. thx
I don't know if it's appealing but you can make coconut milk yogurt. It is definitely not as thick as other yogurt. You just put a can of coconut milk in a glass jar, put 2 probiotic capsules, stir with a plastic spoon, cover with a cloth, leave on counter for 2 days, and put in fridge. It tastes amazing with cacao powder =)
For the Qunol products, in your previous video "Costco’s Vitamins & Supplements- Crucial Breakdown," you preferred the capsules over the liquid version. But this time, you prefer the liquid over the capsules. For vitamin B12, in your video "Costco’s Vitamins & Supplements- Crucial Breakdown | Part 2," you chose the Kirkland B12 Quick Dissolve capsules, but this time you're choosing Kirkland B-Complex. Was there a reason why you changed your mind? Still excellent content.
Hi Thomas, I’m 57 and I still am not sure what vitamins to take for a women my age . Can you please give me a list of what in need . Thank you! Oh and you rock!
Contradicting! I thought you said in prior video, if you had to pick.. The Wild Alaskan Caught Salmon Fish Oil is the one to do. That’s what we got in past and been using it. Just bought another lol, (before I watched this video of you now saying you don’t recommend any ..)😅
@Joel Alone He did still quickly approve that one in this video, but he did it hesitantly now, lol. Idk 🤷🏽♂️ I still say it’s the best one to get at Cotsco since he claimed that before. Will finish off the next bottle and change to Cod Oil. He’s hyper critical, but again, for record he said that Wild Caught Alaskan one is solid choice. Smaller the fish, the better.
Is it possible which omega 3 good and multivitamin to take in Amazon. Please make sure it is available in Canada also. Please recommend magnesium also.
Good morning Thomas, and I just found your UA-cam channel today for the very first time. The best vitamins to get at Costco was the first video I watched. You are extremely informative and I appreciate your honesty. If I could ask you a favor I would like to share all of my vitamins with you to ask for your opinions on each one. Thank you so much for reading my comment. Bill
Hi Thomas, can you help me I’m 62 ,5’3 weight is about 170 can’t seem to lose my fattttt. I’m getting so confused on programs , and diet plans .I’ve listen to you and watch your videos, I feel your the best. .I need to drop weight , I feel so fat .my husband feel I can’t do it .I want to drop down to 130 lbs
I'm taking Vascepa too. It lowered triglycerides for my dad more than Mega Red. I haven't been on it long enough to do a follow up lipid panel. My dad stopped because of cost. I got 720 pills for $18, but I think even 360 for $240 (Kroger price) is comparable to Mega Red when you compare mg to mg. Vascepa (icosapent ethyl) is pure EPA, no DHA, studies seem to indicate EPA without DHA can do more to help CVD.
Berg said cheap, general available grocer store B’s are chemical; recommends the Nutritional Bakers Yeast, plant based. What are your thoughts. Plant based are a bit of a challenge to purchase other than online. Thank you.
Good morning! Love Costco! Love your channel! Thanks for this!! Question: I am extremely low on phosphates, specifically Alkiline phosphates. I have done a ton of research but my doctor keeps telling me I am fine, even though I struggle with muscle twitches, stomach pain and skin problems. I believe it to be related. I am being tested for crohns disease and similar, but curious if you have any insight or ideas on how to increase phosphates? I am currently vitamin loading (mag, e, c, b12, folate, d) and it seems to be helping but muscle twitches are still pretty bad. Thanks!
Natalee heals, have you had your potassium and calcium levels checked? My experience is that high blood calcium can cause muscle twitches and/or cramping.
Hi Natalee, I've had the same symptoms, and this is how I resolved mine. My "muscle twitches" were almost immediately resolved by taking (1) Magnesium Malate 425mg daily. My "stomach pain and skin problems" were the result of my having Celiac Disease. So going completely off of gluten helped TREMENDOUSLY with my "stomach pain and skin problems". None of the doctors I went to diagnosed me - I was fed up with them not taking me seriously and giving me pills that would just cause more pain. So, I typed in my symptoms and "Celiac Disease" kept coming up. Every symptom that was listed for Celiac Disease - I had - except weight loss. There's a simple blood test for Celiac Disease and I requested my doctor to give me the test. Sure enough, I tested positive. Went off Gluten and within 3 days I FELT so much better and within 3 weeks I lost 15 pounds (due to all the inflammation). When I went in for the blood test, I also was given a Vitamin D3 blood test and I was shown to be severely deficient in Vitamin D3. Studies have shown that if you are deficient in Vitamin D3, you are MOST likely deficient in Magnesium too. Since finding that I was deficient in Vitamin D3 and Magnesium, I started taking supplementation and it has VASTLY improved my health (very quickly) taking these supplements. But you will find that having Celiac Disease you will have major problems absorbing nutrients - so you must supplement and start repairing your gut health. 💚💛💖 I, personally, take 15,000 IU's of Vitamin D3 daily, (1) Magnesium Malate 425mg daily, (1) Vitamin K2/Mk-7 90mcg daily. I hope this information helps you in YOUR journey to good health. 😊💖
@@tillygirl7450 Ghana you for taking the time to write all this out for me :) I have been tested for celiac, and was negative but I do have a gene mutation so I do avoid gluten. I have been jacking up magnesium but doesn't seem to do anything. However, I am being tested for crohns disease which could explain low phosphate absorption. I am hoping to find something to increase alkaline phosphates, or repair the non absorbent issue. It is extremely rare to have this problem and the diseases that are related are scary. Hopefully it doesn't come down to having Wilson's disease or worse 🤞
Check out the videos from DR Berg on UA-cam. He’s a DC and taught nutrition and his videos give you amazing info and the research to back it up. He is changed my health and that of a huge number of people.
I absolutely love your honesty and hard work :) thank you for taking the time to educate the world on good health

Better to learn what to look for than have someone else control what you take.
OMG THIS IS WHAT I NEED!!!!!!!!

Cod liver oil is the BEST! Hands down one of the greatest decisions I’ve made over buying a standard fish oil supplement.
why? what difference did it make?

@@PunaniJohnny TWNLAB Norwegian Cod Liver Oil. Go for the unflavored one!

Question: I am extremely low on phosphates, specifically Alkiline phosphates. I have done a ton of research but my doctor keeps telling me I am fine, even though I struggle with muscle twitches, stomach pain and skin problems. I believe it to be related. I am being tested for crohns disease and similar, but curious if you have any insight or ideas on how to increase phosphates? I am currently vitamin loading (mag, e, c, b12, folate, d) and it seems to be helping but muscle twitches are still pretty bad. Thanks!
Natalee heals, have you had your potassium and calcium levels checked? My experience is that high blood calcium can cause muscle twitches and/or cramping.
@@kayeszymanski6945 yes I have. Everything is normal and good accept for my phosphates which are chronically low. :(
Hi Natalee, I've had the same symptoms, and this is how I resolved mine.
My "muscle twitches" were almost immediately resolved by taking (1) Magnesium Malate 425mg daily.
My "stomach pain and skin problems" were the result of my having Celiac Disease. So going completely off of gluten helped TREMENDOUSLY with my "stomach pain and skin problems".
None of the doctors I went to diagnosed me - I was fed up with them not taking me seriously and giving me pills that would just cause more pain.
So, I typed in my symptoms and "Celiac Disease" kept coming up. Every symptom that was listed for Celiac Disease - I had - except weight loss.
There's a simple blood test for Celiac Disease and I requested my doctor to give me the test. Sure enough, I tested positive.
Went off Gluten and within 3 days I FELT so much better and within 3 weeks I lost 15 pounds (due to all the inflammation).
When I went in for the blood test, I also was given a Vitamin D3 blood test and I was shown to be severely deficient in Vitamin D3. Studies have shown that if you are deficient in Vitamin D3, you are MOST likely deficient in Magnesium too.
Since finding that I was deficient in Vitamin D3 and Magnesium, I started taking supplementation and it has VASTLY improved my health (very quickly) taking these supplements. But you will find that having Celiac Disease you will have major problems absorbing nutrients - so you must supplement and start repairing your gut health.
💚💛💖 I, personally, take 15,000 IU's of Vitamin D3 daily, (1) Magnesium Malate 425mg daily, (1) Vitamin K2/Mk-7 90mcg daily.
I hope this information helps you in YOUR journey to good health. 😊💖
@@tillygirl7450 Ghana you for taking the time to write all this out for me :) I have been tested for celiac, and was negative but I do have a gene mutation so I do avoid gluten. I have been jacking up magnesium but doesn't seem to do anything. However, I am being tested for crohns disease which could explain low phosphate absorption. I am hoping to find something to increase alkaline phosphates, or repair the non absorbent issue. It is extremely rare to have this problem and the diseases that are related are scary. Hopefully it doesn't come down to having Wilson's disease or worse 🤞

Why not coconut oil instead of Mct oil since it contains mct oil
I’m surprised you recommend Calm. It’s magnesium citrate and it has a laxative effect. Bowel prep for surgery.
Do you have a recommendation on a multivitamin?
