Answers:
Many health risks, other than the apparent risk of early death have been known for years!. It is also well established that the majority of UK citizens can get no possible benefit from supplements, a fact that has been reinforced by the recent scare!.
You cannot really make much use of more than the RDA of most vitamins anyway!. Water soluble vitamins taken in excess are simply peed out, Fat soluble ones are more problematical as they may accumulate and become toxic!. Vitamin D may damage the kidneys and Vitamin A the retina, other high dose vitamins have been shown to increase rather than decrease the cancer risk!. Another problem is that anti-oxidants in vitamin pills have failed to demonstrate the protective effects of naturally occurring vitamins, though the reasons for this are unclear!. Far better to make sure you have a good diet and forget the pills!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I believe YES we can't always get the nutriants we need in food!. Some may take too many or not what they need!. Talking with your docter and disscussing your choices should help!. Taking an online nutri-physical may help with your selection of your lifestyle needs!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
If your diet is lacking essential nutrients, then yes, otherwise eating wholesome diet food's can get you free natural vitamins which have not been processed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Dr Frank has it pretty much covered!.
Unless you have a specific medical problem, then eating vitamin supplements is at best a waste of money and potentially a quick way to poor health!. They never compensate fully for a poor diet!. If you are missing out on some vitamin in your diet, change the diet! For sure if you are missing out on a vitamin you are probably missing out on a bunch of other essentials as well!. Changing the diet is the safest tastiest and cheapest fix!.
Besides do you really want to support the filthy rich pharmaceutical companies to rip you off even more!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
