      Do you take any vitamins?

      If so, What do you take? How much? Does it effect your ability to attain lucidity?

      I just take a '1 a day' capsule with a whole range of vitamins and minerals.

      I don't take large amounts of anything, and I'm not certain if taking these vitamins affects my dreaming.

      I don't take anything. I don't have many lucid dreams at all. Two in 4 months or something.

      Sooo, let me rephrase: I haven't taken any...YET!

      ive began to take those all in one pills to. I dont know what effect they have on me yet, from going from very little vitamins to a pill with all i need trough the day. But i think the body deserves to get all the buildingblocks it needs to fuction healty. And im now better at swolowing pills whole.

      The few times I used b6, I didn' t really have better recall or more vivid dreams. However, I usually did have better recall the NEXT night if I didn't take b6.

      I take B6 from time to time, I used to use it regurarly, but it didn't help me with my lucid dreams or recall so i stopped. Now i just take it for fun sometimes because i seem to get more interessting and actionfilled dreams with it.

      I take multi-vitamin pills that contain small amounts of various micronutrients. I don't take those for dreaming purposes though, and I don't think they help dreaming in any way since they don't have lot of B-vitamin.
      Don't think about those damn kangaroos.

      B-Complex.

      I've been trying to have a lucid dream for some time now and on a couple different occasions I've tried taking a B-Complex vitamin before going to sleep. Although I definitely notice a difference in my sleep and dreams, I would by no means say that it is the key to lucid dreaming.

      I can definitely see how, if you were a very skilled lucid dreamer the vitamins could help, but I think that with lucid dreaming, just like anything else in life, there's no magical pill that you can take to make you an expert LDer.

      i take Centrum multivitamins once a day... i don't know if it changes anything with lucid dreaming, but i know i at least get some of the vitamins i wouldn't otherwise (i'm a vegetarian and i don't really have time to have a perfectly healthy diet, vegetarian pizza hardly does the trick.)

      Take "sleep pills" sometimes, herbal, contains valarium, camomile, etc.

      All it really seems to do is take away my dreams/impairs dream recall.

      Might just be a coincidence though. Not sure.

      I take melatonin before going to sleep at night, helps me sleep through the day without waking up a lot, I do think this helps me WILD the next day because its easier to fall back asleep after waking but i'm still able to keep my mind awake. Also take b-6 from time to time, it definately effects my dreams, more vivid and action packed, but on the other hand, all my dreams are usually crazy action filled, I love to kick ass

      I take no tablets or pills a day for vitamins, I'll probably end up keeling over because my diet (ie: 5 packets of frazzles chips/crisps a day) isn't that healthy.
