You're more machine than man, now.

I thought I read somewhere that multivitamins don’t really do anything?

If you have a good, balanced diet, probably not.
Now, how many of us always have a good balanced diet everyday?

Some of them are ridiculously expensive and I really don't believe you need them. I appear to be in the minority in this view, both here and at home.

Multivitamins and minerals combo pill in days when I don't feel my regular food intake gives me sufficient nutrients. Iron supplements because I donate blood several times a year.

I figure the multi just couldn’t hurt. Kirkland so not expensive.

I take a daily multivitamin. I have no idea if it does anything. Sometimes I see adds for probiotics (promote "good gut health"), but who knows.
Multivitamin. Some extra Vit C in the winter.
Probiotics work pretty well for some folks and are a must when you're on antibiotics. But they don't confer any lasting benefit when you stop taking them.

Same, though Vitamin C throughout the year when I remember. LOL
Vitamin D when I remember.
Also take apple cider vinegar when eating (also when I remember)
Agree with everybody that multi- vitamins may not too much. But, I dont think that they really will hurt you either.

I’ve heard you should treat fish oil like a food. Make sure it’s high quality and relative fresh. Eat it with your meal (they say your body absorbs it differently vs taking it alone). Make sure the amount is high enough.

I eat loads of fish so I’ve never even given it thought.
