Daily Vitality Vitamins (includes Omegas) Full disclosure, a big part of the reason I use these is because they’re easy. All in one sachets. You can buy the Omegas separately as well. Also, I am a DoTerra member so if you buy from this link I make some cents on the sale.

Vitamin D3 from New Chapter: I am told that because these are fermented, they absorb better than other vitamins. I need all the help I can get so I use them! Check with your doctor for the correct amount to take.
