    If you're eating wholesome unprocessed foods you shouldn't have "much" that you're falling short on. If you're eating lots of processed stuff then a vitamin supplement could be in order.

    Just watch your sources, some commercials make it look like you need to eat TONS of something to get a certain vitamin.. and sure you do if the food you're eating is a low source of that particular vitamin, pick something that is higher in it and you can eat less to meet the goals....

    If you're not getting sufficient vitamins with the foods you eat every day, then I would recommend taking a daily multivitamin. I take one in the morning, and I also take a Vitamin C at night.
