alternate between days off for some vitamins greens pills supplements and stool softners you do not need to take them 6x a day 3 pills a day god no that is just marketing to get you done a whole freaking bottle in 1 week lol try having multivitamin 2-3 x a week and then greens on the days off etc just one pill a day and yes its ok to skip some months when you cant afford it but invest in urself and get some vitamin gummies or something you cant go wrong with this stuff
