Discovering the Best Liquid Multivitamin: A Comprehensive Guide

Maintaining optimal health often involves incorporating a high-quality multivitamin into your daily routine. Among the various forms available, liquid multivitamins stand out for their fast absorption and convenience. If you're seeking the best liquid multivitamin to enhance your wellness, this guide will provide you with valuable insights and tips. Additionally, we'll explore the benefits of West African pure organic oil, a natural supplement that complements your multivitamin regimen.

Why Opt for a Liquid Multivitamin?

Liquid multivitamins are known for their superior absorption compared to pills and tablets. This is because the nutrients in liquid form are more readily available for your body to use. If you find it difficult to swallow tablets or if you have digestive concerns, a liquid multivitamin could be the ideal solution.

Furthermore, liquid multivitamins frequently provide a wider variety of components. This means you’re more likely to get all the essential vitamins and minerals that your body needs. They also tend to be easier on the stomach and faster acting.

Features to Look for in the Best Liquid Multivitamins

When selecting the best liquid multivitamin, keep these features in mind:

Complete Nutrient Profile: Ensure the liquid multivitamin covers a broad spectrum of essential vitamins and minerals. Keep an eye out for important nutrients like the B-complex vitamins, calcium, magnesium, and zinc, as well as vitamins A, C, D, and E.

High Bioavailability: Choose a multivitamin with high bioavailability, meaning the nutrients are easily absorbed by your body. Liquid forms generally have better bioavailability compared to tablets or capsules.

Pleasant Taste: Since you'll be consuming this daily, select a multivitamin with a taste that you can tolerate or enjoy. Many liquid options come in flavors that make daily intake more pleasant.

Natural Ingredients: Opt for products with natural ingredients and minimal additives. The best liquid multivitamin avoids artificial colors, sweeteners, and fillers.

Integrating West African Pure Organic Oil

In addition to liquid multivitamins, consider incorporating West African pure organic oil into your health regimen. This oil, derived from natural sources in West Africa, offers a range of health benefits that can complement your multivitamin intake.

Benefits of West African Pure Organic Oil

Rich in Nutrients: West African pure organic oil is often high in essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins. These nutrients support overall health, skin vitality, and immune function.

Supports Skin Health: This oil is renowned for its moisturizing and nourishing properties. It can be applied topically to support skin that is radiant and healthy.

Natural and Pure: As an organic product, it is free from synthetic chemicals and additives, aligning with a natural wellness approach.

How to Choose the Best Liquid Multivitamin

Choosing the right liquid multivitamin involves considering several factors:

Nutritional Needs: Match the multivitamin’s nutrient profile with your specific health needs. Whether you need extra support for energy, immunity, or overall well-being, ensure the formula meets those requirements.

Quality and Purity: Select products that emphasize quality and purity. Avoid those with unnecessary additives and focus on those that use natural, high-quality ingredients.

Taste and Preference: Since you’ll be using it daily, choose a product with a taste that suits you. Consistency is easier to maintain as a result.

Finding the best liquid multivitamin involves evaluating factors like nutrient content, absorption, and ingredient quality. By choosing wisely and incorporating these natural supplements into your routine, you’re taking a significant step towards better health. Don't forget to speak with a medical expert to customize your supplement selections to your unique requirements and wellness objectives.

Flirting Gone Wrong

IMAGINE: FLIRTING GONE WRONG - SATORU X READER GENRE: FLUFF WARNINGS: NONE Nova's Notes: This is set when Satoru is in high school. ***********************

It is no secret that Gojo is a flirtatious man. He is pretty confident about it too. He knew he was handsome, there was no person that wouldn’t want to be with him. With just one flirtatious smile, that person would be wrapped around his finger. 

So he was confused as to why you weren’t falling for his usual flirtatious antics. He would give you small touches, but you would just brush them off. Every time he would send you his famous smile while looking into your eyes, you would just smile back at him. Your smile would make him falter instead. You didn’t know it, but you now had him wrapped your finger. 

All of his flirting attempts would fail and he would become a flustered mess. He really just wanted his flirting to work and make you his. 

His first attempt: 

You were studying for an upcoming exam. You needed to ace this test because if you didn’t then you would fail the class. You were so focused on the material in front of you, you didn’t notice that your best friend, Gojo Satoru, was staring at you. 

He was admiring how concentrated you look. Your eyebrows were slightly pulled together, your lips pursed into a small pout and you were twirling your pencil in between his fingers. He was just so awe-struck by your cuteness, he couldn’t help the words to come out of his mouth. 

“You’re so cute.” He mumbles. 

You were too focused on your work to even correctly hear what he said. “What did you say?” You ask, finally pulling yourself away from your work. 

Satoru’s eyes widened slightly. He didn’t mean to say those words. 

“I said you look like a boot.” 

Your lips pull into a disgusted frown, “what is that supposed to mean?” Satoru silently curses to himself. He didn’t mean to dig himself into a deeper hole. But it was the hill he was willing to die on. 

“It means you look like a boot.” “Yeah? Well you look like a q-tip. Now leave me alone.” 

You turn back to your studies, the aggravated look on your face now fading away. Instead there was a small smile on your face. Satoru noticed this and was relieved that it didn’t turn completely south. “You wound me.” He says before pulling out his phone for his own distraction. 

His second attempt: 

If anyone were to look at you two, they would assume that you two were on a date. 

But you weren’t. 

Satoru wishes that it was a date though. 

The two of you were walking around, trying to find some sweets to snack on. The two of you settled on ice cream. Well not really, you wanted ice cream so Satoru agreed, even if he didn’t want ice cream. 

You got strawberry ice cream, and Satoru could swear that you were the happiest person on the planet right now. “Gosh, you’re so cute…” He mutters. You look at him, “what did you say?” 

Of course you didn’t hear him. 

“I said that you look like a fruit.” You just gave him a strange look, “that doesn’t even make sense.” 

He knows. He doesn’t even know why he said it. He panicked and it was the first thing that came to his brain. Satoru just gives you his famous grin, “well it’s true.” You just laugh. Your laughter rings in his ears like a beautiful melody. Once your laughter dies down you smile at him and he swears that your smile was meant just for him. “Okay, I’ll indulge in this. What fruit do I look like?” “A strawberry.” He says without missing a beat. “Eh? Why a strawberry. Last I checked, my skin isn’t red.” “Mm, not yet. You eat so many strawberries, that one day you’re gonna look like one.” 

You purse your lips at him, “you look like a baobab.” 

Satoru sighs at your comment, “really? Because we’re both white? How original (y/n).” “No, because you’re both dusty.” Satoru lets out a shocked gasp at your words, “how cruel of you to say!” 

His dramatics cause you to laugh while clutching your stomach. You were laughing so hard that your cheeks were turning red. “See!” Satoru shouts, “you’re already turning into a strawberry!” He says while pinching your reddening cheeks. 

His third attempt: 

“I just don’t understand why you have to be here at this hour.” You whisper to your best friend. He was currently in your dorm room… at four in the morning. “I woke up early and couldn’t go back to sleep.” “So you make that my problem?” “Yup!” He says, popping the ‘p’ while slinging his arm around your shoulders. 

You look at him to see that he was looking at you with a shit eating grin. 

However, Satoru was admiring your tired form. How messy your hair looked after being rudely awakened. The slight eye bags that were caused from endless hours of studying. He could still see the sleep in your eyes and if he let you, you could fall right back to sleep. 

But what was the point when you had to get up in an hour anyway? 

“Why did you wake up so early anyway?” You ask him. “Does there have to be a reason?” 

Truth is, there was a reason. He was dreaming about you… and it got a little suggestive. He woke up and he simply couldn’t go back to sleep. So his solution was to come bother you. 

You just look up at him, “yeah. I guess you’re right.” “I was just thinking…’ He mutters but you somehow heard that. 

“Oh yeah? Thinking? I hope you didn’t hurt yourself.” Satoru slightly elbows you, “that’s not nice.” You could see the slight pout on his lips and all you can do is crack a smile. “Fine. What were you thinking about?” 

“I was just thinking… about how strange I feel about you.” He was staring off into the distance, not really noticing how he almost confessed his feelings for you. However, it went right over your head. You never really took him seriously and you just smiled about. “So you’re telling me that lil ol’ me makes the strongest sorcerer feel weird? Do you have a fever or something?” 

Satoru scoffs at your words, “as if. You couldn’t make me waver if you tried.” “Oh yeah? Wanna bet?” Before he could say another word, you had flung your pillow at his face. A gasp falls from his lips as he stumbles a little bit. He grabs another pillow, swinging it right back at you. Harder than what he meant to. The force of his hit causes you to fall back and hit the back of your head. All though, it didn’t hurt. “Ow,” while laughing and rubbing the back of your head. 

“Are you okay??” Satoru frantically asks while grabbing onto you. You didn’t notice how close your bodies were. Or how his hand caressed the back of your head. You could feel his warm breath brush against your skin and you were now painfully aware how close he was. 

You could feel the warmth of his body pressing against yours, and even in the dim lighting in your room, you could see every little facial feature on him. 

He wasn’t wearing his glasses, his eyes shining the most. He was so close that you noticed how perfect his skin was, like almost all of his pores were nonexistent. His lips were a glossy shade of pink, and for the first time you wondered what they felt like. 

It was so unfair how pretty he was. 

“Yeah.” You slightly whisper. Too afraid that if you spoke too loud it would ruin the moment. There were no other words spoken in between you two. Instead, he just leans forward. His lips are getting closer and closer to yours. He was about an inch away from you, ready to delve in. That was until your alarm went off. 

The loud blare of your alarm causes the both of you to jump back from each other. Both faces are equally red from what just happened. 

“I… I gotta get ready for school now. So get out of my room.” You say while pushing the lanky boy out of your room. Once the door was shut, you let out a big breath trying to calm your racing heart. On the other side, Satoru has a large grin on his face. Happy that he was able to get this close to you. He was determined to go all the way next time. 

His fourth attempt: 

The drink in your hand was the most interesting thing in the world for you right now. You didn’t really want to witness the flirting that was going on right beside you. 

Satoru had dragged you out to this party, claiming that you needed a break from all the studying that you do. However, you would rather be cooped up inside than watching Satoru flirt with another girl. 

You could hear her giggles as Satoru talks to her. Her body is a little too close to him for your own comfort. Her hand slaps his shoulder every once in a while. 

“I don’t know what’s so funny about him anyway.” You mutter to yourself while swirling the liquid in your cup. You would know that he wasn’t that funny anyway. Rather annoying, in your opinion.

“What was that darling?” The man that infuriated your thoughts was now speaking to you. “Nothing.” You quickly spit out, “it’s nothing.” “Hmm,” he smirks at the frown on your face, “are you sure it doesn’t have anything to do with that girl flirting with me.” You scoff at his words, “yeah right. You were doing all the flirting from where I was sitting.” 

Satoru just laughs, “don’t worry. You’re the only one for me.” 

His words struck a nerve in you, causing you to freeze up in shock. 

The only one for him. 

Your lips then form into a small pout, “well now it sounds like you’re trying to flirt with me.” “Well, I have been. For a while now.” You were even more confused now. “Me? Why me?” “Because I like you, duh.” 

Your face burns red at his words. Feeling stupid for not picking up at his flirting attempts from before. “Well… I like you too.” “Good. Then it should be alright if I do this then.” 

 He then leans forward, hands cupping your cheeks to place his lips on yours.

TLK: Survive

"A mjuzi... did that to you?" asked Kiara.

Laini nodded.

"I told you it was very important", said Vitani.

The galago matriarch had come earlier to the Lion Guard leader, tears in her eyes, and asked to have a inmediate reunion with the Queen, saying that something terrible has been going on in Mizimu Grove. Kiara hadn't wanted anyone in the pride to panic, remembering when Scar's spirit had made himself noticed seasons ago, so she went alone to meet her with her sister-in law.

This felt worse.

"We only wanted to greet him! And to lead him to Rafiki!" Laini was still trembling. "We know how he has been waiting for a new apprentice, so we only to wanted to be nice! But this...chimp, laughed at us, and then his staff made me bleed!".

"Blazes..." Kiara mumbled to herself. This really was worse than Scar and his minions. Fire could be controlled, fire was natural; but magic that could injure other animals, was something else. It was...wrong.

"I got his scent." Vitani said. "Ready when you tell me so, Kiara."

The Queen let out a sigh. "Ok, let's go, Vitani. Don't worry, Laini, find Rafiki and get yourself healed. We got this."

----

They so not got this.

Vitani and her have managed to find the stranger in one of the Baobab's trees from the Grove. Kiara has never seen him, which made sense if he was a new apprentice for Rafiki. But the way he controlled his staff, cutting the fruit and the branches from the tree didn't seem like someone who needed guidance.

"Hey, you, up there!" yelled Vitani, who has been angrier all the way to the place, "the blazes are you doing messing with the trees? They are sacred!"

The chimp stopped and let himself hang from the branches, balancing his staff with a smirk on his face.

"Ugh, more females. Is there anyone in this territory who is competent enough?"

"Excuse me?"

"You are excused." And the chimp laughed.

Vitani's fur raised in rage. Kiara didn't like this a tiny bit.

"Listen, we don't want troubles with a possible future mjuzi," Kiara intervened, "but you hurt one of our own, so you need to come down."

"Why?"

"Why?! Because you hurt someone!" Vitani growled.

"And? It was fun."

"Fun?!" Vitani was losing her patience. Kiara was aware on how close Vitani was to Laini, so she understood her fury.

"Vitani, calm d-"

"It's going to be fun when I kick your smug-butt out of The Pridelands! Get back down, you coward!"

Suddenly the ape's eyes darkened, the smile no longer smug but threateningly

"Name is Tangulifu. And with pleasure."

The next thing Kiara saw was red.

Vitani's blood covered now Mizimu Grove.

-------------------------------------------------------------

I headcanon that Laini was the first one of the Pridelanders to actually trust Vitani and accept her and the Outsiders as part of the pride. So her getting injured was something personal to Vitani here.

I also don't think that these animals have the concept of weapons. Seeing a "mjuzi staff" making someone bleed must have felt like dark magic. And now you see why in Perfectly Valued Vitani has her scars (and why the concept of another dark mjuzi was scary).

Tangulifu means "go before, precede". Basically a reference to Adam, the first man (and yes, making him like the one from Hazbin xD)

dropped a new t-shirt w rawpaw for their "dreams" challenge & the dream is LANDBACK WORLDWIDE 🖤

I present to you this sigil against capitalist realism (AKA the worst idea in human history: that an earth under capitalism is the only way for humanity to function.)

a different world is not only possible - it’s hundreds of years overdue. shirt can be found HERE. 100% cotton, screenprinted in texas <3 grateful for any shares w folks you think may fw it.

decolonial symbolism breakdown & image description is below the cut~

a multipanel white illustration against a black background.

TOP L: a night flying moth with the words "LANDBACK" - reps change, fluidity, & adaptation (read up on the evolution of the peppered moth - so cool!)

TOP R: a shining blade with the words "WORLDWIDE" - a tool of farmers everywhere (the machete, Indian aruval, Filipino bolo, Afro-Caribbean panga) & global symbol of decolonialism

CENTER: a huge baobab tree with people dancing & gathering fruit underneath. its roots crush military weapons long buried underground - a tree of great spiritual significance across continental Africa & Australia, long used as gathering places, sites of shelter, abundance, and resilience in difficult climates.

BOTTOM L: flowers grow from tear gas grenades - based on Subhiyah Abu Rahma's garden, in memory of her son Bassem, unalived in 2009 when an IOF soldier launched one into his chest. bc “less than lethal” weap0ns will always be lethal in the hands of fasc1sts

BOTTOM RIGHT: a panther pushes out from a lush forest, gazing at the viewer - represents the human rights past generations have fought for, a reminder to not let down one’s guard, to never forget past struggles even if we live in relative comfort, and to never settle for anything less than total liberation. & lastly

BOTTOM CENTER: an orca sinking a yacht - because... well, I trust you get it by now.

Baobab trees are among the most unique trees that grow in Africa. According to an estimate, these trees are among the oldest trees on earth. In the savanna (Africa) the climate is very dry. Where other trees grow with difficulty. The baobab tree thrives there. During the rainy season, the baobab tree absorbs and stores water in its broad trunk. A full tree can store thousands of liters of water within itself. The water stored in its trunk is so much that the tree can survive for years thanks to this water. Can survive even in drought. The baobab tree can grow up to 30 meters tall. And it can live up to five thousand years. Baobab trees can provide shelter, food and water for animals and humans, which is why many savannah communities have built their homes. Made near the baobab trees. And this tree is considered the tree of life. The fruits of this tree are also exceptionally rich in nutrients and antioxidants. The baobab fruit is the only fruit in the world that dries naturally on its branch. Instead of falling off and spoiling, it stays on the branch and ripens in the sun for 6 months - the pulp of the fruit dries completely. Its green velvety coating transforms into a hard coconut-like shell. 100% pure fruit in its natural form. Amazingly, the fruit has a natural shelf life of 3 years. It has been used for years to treat fatigue, digestion, protection against disease, and infection, as well as beautify the skin. Ropes are made from the bark of this tree. While its leaves are eagerly eaten by cattle. And the clear water in its stem can be drunk. While the oil made from its fruit seeds is used in cosmetics. The value of which is very high in the market. Baobab trees grow in some of the driest, remotest, and poorest parts of rural Africa. According to a report by National Geographic, demand for this tree is increasing due to its unique characteristics.

2,000-year-old tree in South Africa called The Tree of Life. The baobab tree.

Baobab? Not "Hubble"?

Hubble was a joke about the hubble telescope, while Boabab is a more serious take. They are African trees with massive trunks, and symbolize many things to many different African people. One common one I liked in my brief googling was that they symbolize life, because one tree can give everything you need to live. Water from the trunk, food from the fruit, and shade from the branches.

But it stands to reason that a God can have many names in many languages. Just like the sun is not it's true name. Sol is just what Latin based humans call it, while it has different names to most of thr billions of people on earth.

It is the same with Celestia, Luna, Boabab, and eventually twilight and cadence as they become known outside of equestria.

You will find a lot of things on this blog that change as I come up with better ideas or just forget

November 1, 2023 - Tanzanian Red-billed Hornbill (Tockus ruahae) Found in Tanzania, these hornbills live in savannas and woodlands, especially those with baobabs and acacias. They feed on insects, including ants and beetle larvae, as well as seeds, and may also eat other arthropods, small vertebrates, and fruit, like closely related species. Their breeding behaviors have not been studied, though they likely nest in cavities.
