Just curious if anyone has tried these and what’s the general opinion is.
Saw that add on a plane and like the idea, just not sure where to begin on research if it is actually worth it.
Presuming this is a good faith question and not marketing…
“ In an editorial in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine titled “Enough Is Enough: Stop Wasting Money on Vitamin and Mineral Supplements,” Johns Hopkins researchers reviewed evidence about supplements, including three very recent studies:
An analysis of research involving 450,000 people, which found that multivitamins did not reduce risk for heart disease or cancer.
A study that tracked the mental functioning and multivitamin use of 5,947 men for 12 years found that multivitamins did not reduce risk for mental declines such as memory loss or slowed-down thinking.
A study of 1,708 heart attack survivors who took a high-dose multivitamin or placebo for up to 55 months. Rates of later heart attacks, heart surgeries and deaths were similar in the two groups. “
Sounds like money that could be otherwise going towards healthy foods that would fill out your vitamin needs. I would talk to your doctor first and have a blood test done to see if you’re actually high/low on any specific vitamin and need to be put on a specialized plan.
