Question:
Im thinking of drinking some vitamins everyday, but i dont know which to buy. any recommendations?
Answers:
First, doctors do not receive nutrition education in medical school, so a doctor is unlikely to have an educated opinion about the subject.
Second, in 2002, the AMA published a report in the Journal of the American Medical Association stating that all people should consider a multivitamin because the data clearly shows people are not getting enough nutrition from diet along due to the poor quality of today's food supply.
If you do take a multivitamin, seek one that is made from a food-based source.
And ignore the hype of liquid vitamins being better absorbed and other tricks companies use to force your body to accept their synthetic vitamins. Bioavailability is the most important factor.
Food based vitamins provide maximum bioavailability.
Also take personal testimonials for what they are. People often tell you their testimonial and then make an assertion that the same thing will happen to you. That's the first sign of someone who lacks sufficient education (self or formal) to know what they're talking about.
Testimonials are great! But they only suggest what MIGHT BE possible, and nothing more.
