    It’s called supplements for a reason. It’s not supposed to be your main source of nutrients

    Vitamins are my insurance. I'll continue to take them. My grandmother took them religiously since I was a baby. She's in her 90s today still taking her vitamins everyday.

    Most ppl don’t eat a balanced diet. If you buy the right pills they can really help the way you feel and look (hair and skin)

    I would like to know who funded the study. Pharmaceutical companies will pay anything to say that natural medicines don’t work.

    They are missing the boat on vitamin supplements. I practice intermittent fasting and taking a daily multivitamin supplement is a way for me to achieve weight loss and still get the vitamins I need on a daily basis. The word here is SUPPLEMENT. So, depending on what your doing they can be a waste of money or they can be a necessity. I can only speak for myself but I do not eat a well balanced diet daily that will give me everything I need for my daily values. It says in the video studies have shown vitamins and supplements do not prevent cancer, heart disease or longevity. I don't take them for those reasons and I'm pretty sure there still is no cure for cancer last time I checked.

    I tried AG1 for a month and felt amazing. You can feel it work in minutes. I stopped buying though because it’s so expensive.

    I had a horrible drug addiction and began chugging a bunch of water and eating right and always top it off with a Multivitamin. I swear to god that this brought my body back to life and my mental health aswell. Much needed rocovery.

    I've been using Rune Organics' vitamins and minerals for a while now, and I love the results. My energy levels have skyrocketed. These products are a game changer and no gmo or other bs.

    A doctor telling you that you don’t need vitamins is like a dentist giving you a life time gift card to the candy store

    Of course, they say vitamins don't do anything, just because they don't gain any $ Value

  • @JourneytoWellbeing

    Taking vitamins can help support your immune system and overall health, which may make you less susceptible to illness. However, it's important to note that vitamins alone can't prevent illness. A balanced diet, regular exercise, proper sleep, and good hygiene are also crucial for maintaining good health.

    I don’t know I think an $9 bottle of multi vitamins is less expensive than buying fresh vegetables

    My grandfather turned 90 years old today and he never took any supplements or vitamins in his life. He also was fortunate enough to not have any serious infections to take any antibiotics or serious drugs either. He had a very balanced diet though.

  • @pintohoareau579

    I'll keep taking them. Thanks.

    I don’t think it’s gonna sway anyone. Ironically I asked my doctor about the supplements I take and multivitamins. He didn’t find it to be beneficial. He said most people are getting the vitamins from the foods they eat. But he also added it won’t hurt to take the vitamins, but has doubt as to its effectiveness. He then said the one vitamin that most people tend to be deficient or low in is Vitamin D. So he recommends that. This didn’t sway me from taking my daily vitamins that I’ve been doing for decades.

    Since having my last anemic attack in 2021. I did not like taking the iron supplement. I started taking Flinstones. Chewable vitamin . When my levels were about 3 and my iron and anemic levels began to go up after that. Before that I was constipated and throwing up from iron supplement. So I believe in taking what you need.

    Of course a doctor is going to say it isn’t helpful because it is then you wouldnt really need the doctor much 😂
