    I went shopping for a quality multi vitamin
    yesterday. I stood in the aisle reading the %RDA amounts of each supplier. It was then a flag went up when I saw +350% and more. Came home and did some research and came across this article http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2013/07/the-vitamin-myth-why-we-think-we-need-supplements/277947/

    and this one

    I'll be thinking long and hard about my investment in them.

    Doctor-ordered B12 supplements (I have an uptake deficiency), it runs in my family (both mother and sister are on supplements, one pills and the other shots). I'm not vegan or vegetarian and I love me some red meat, I just don't (apparently) absorb it well. /shrug

    I swear by them, but that's my personal opinion. I know a lot of people are completely opposed to adding vitamins to the daily regimen. I have a health condition and the holistic treatments include a variety of vitamins and supplements that have improved the way I feel greatly. Some people say it's just creating "expensive pee" though, ha! To each their own :)
