    Regardless of the arguement at hand there's really no drawbacks to taking a multivitamin as far as I can tell.

    I take the gummy kind because they actually taste decent and I hate the giant pills you have to swallow. The gummies are the first ones I've actually taken every single day without fail for more than a few days. In fact its been nearly a month now probably.

    Not sure how strict you are being with your diet, but beware that most gummy vitamins are loaded with sugar.

    I take Nature Make Daily Women's Pack - this is what is in the 4 pills in it
    Vitamin A 3,000 IU Magnesium 100 mg
    Vitamin C 670 mg Zinc 15 mg
    Vitamin D 400 IU Selenium 50 mcg
    Vitamin E 60 IU Copper 2 mg
    Vitamin K 10 mcp Manganese 2 mg
    Thiamin 18 mg Chromium 120 mcg
    Riboflavin 13.6 mg Molybdenum 25 mcg
    Niacin 70 mg Chloride 72 mg
    Vitamin B6 9 mg Potassium 80 mg
    Folic Acid 400 mcg Boron 150 mcg
    Vitamin B12 25 mcg Nickel 5 mg
    Botin 30 mcg Silicon 2 mg
    Panthothenic Acid 20 mg Tin 10 mcg
    Calcium 800 mg Vanadium 10 mcg
    Phosphorus 48 Mg Lutein 250 mcg
    Iodine 150 mcg

    Vitamin B Complex
    B1 50 mg B6 50 mg
    B2 50 mg Folic Acid 400 mcg
    Niacin 50 mg B12 50 mcg
    Biotin 50 mcg Pantotheric Acid 50 mg

    Biotin 1000 mcg

    Iron 65 mg

    I know this sounds like a lot, but I do feel better when I take them regularly. I take the multi pack, Iron and extra Biotin at night because they make my tummy feel weird if I take them in the mornings. I take the B-Complex in the mornings with my breakfast.

    Also, for the people that are JUST taking vitamin D pills or have a vitamin D deficiency, try going outside in the sun for at least 30 minutes a day (with sunblock on, of course!) A lot of people have desk jobs or jobs that require them inside, and then they go home, eat and what-have-you, maybe workout, and usually indoors. Vitamin D is needed by the body, but the body doesn't actually make it. The sun, however, does for you! If you don't like taking a vitamin, try just simply getting out more!
