Advantages: A great way to get a range of vitamins and minerals

Disadvantages: chalky aftertaste

I am very good at always ensuring I eat five a day and generally, consider myself to be a very ehalthy person. I do however, work in a job that needs me to work very long hours indeed.

I found Berocca about 8 years ago for the first time and decided to give them a go, because I found that early afternoons were getting difficult as I was always tired.

Berocca comes in different forms, but essentially the idea is the same. You take one of these regularly to increase your daily performance. The tablets contain vitamin B complex in particular as well as other essential minerals and vitamins.

I prefer to take the effervescent tablets and it is the way I start my day. I add the tablet to a pint of cold water and leave it for about 5 minutes. I drink half of it straight away and then 'swirl' the other half so that any of the powdery tablet residue is dissovled back into the water.

The Berocca tablets come in orange flavour and are favourably priced. There are other varieties of this available and supermarket own brands have tried to replicate the Berocca tablet, but I do not think that they come anywhere close to being as good as Berocca.

There are some issues you have to deal with however! The main one is realising that your wee will be orange (deep orange) for a while as your body adjusts to taking this amount of vitamins and minerals in in this form. I always find also, that after drinking it straight away, I often feel thirsty, this is because the tablet contains chalk to bind it together I would imagine.

Berocca today is a part of my routine, as important to me as my contact lenses. Although I would never supplement it with fresh fruit and vegetables, I do find that it is good at helping me to cope with my hectic lifestyle and also ensure that I do get a good range of vitamins and minerals every day.

Summary: Well worth a go...at least for 2 weeks
