      And those vitamines are just crap.

      There has been a very recent extensive study of vitamin C “supplements”. You know the conclusion was that there is only one sole reason that taking vitamin C that is good for you?

      C vitamine deficiency.

      Badum tss…

        To be fair the only reason I took any vitamins is in case I’m deficient in something specific with my modern and ahitty diet. Currently I’m not taking any but I’m just as likely deficient as anyone else.

          Yeah, I do the same. My main gripe with a lot of them is that they usually have way too much of some vitamins or minerals. The only one that should be >100% IMO is B12, as there is no upper tolerable limit and many people have issues absorbing it. My multivitamin just has 100% of everything except B12 at 2000%. That way if I have a gap, it gets filled.

          In our modern lives we all have D vitamin deficiency, but as you can overdose (fat soluble vitamin) you have to get a prescription for that.
