Yes, you should take the supplements. This diet doesn't give you enough of everything you need nutritionally.

Yes, sorry, the supplements are a necessity. Since the diet is so limited in what you can eat you're not getting all the vitamins / minerals that your body requires. If the pills are a problem, you might be able to find a gummy supplement that could take the place of your multi-vitamin, but you're stuck with the others.

Be careful with the gummy supplements. I was taking one a day gummy multi's and then discovered they have sugar in them.

The receptionist at my clinic also did the plan and she said she had trouble taking the supplements because they were so big so she bought a pill crusher and took them that way.

good luck

I didn't think about that, good point. I haven't taken them, just seen them on the shelves.
