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.

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.

Wow. Randomized placebo-controlled study shows significant memory and cognitive benefits of daily multivitamin use.

If I had to give up one of my vitamins it would be that. I eat rather healthily and probably don’t need it even if it does work. The other stuff I have special reasons to need.

Good for you!
I’m finally adding back the weight I lost in the last 6-8 months. Harder workouts, a med change to stop some GI issues that were affecting my ability to absorb nutrients, and more frequent meals are helping me. I’m up 10 lbs since April.
