Multivitamins; money in the trash!


            Spending money on multivitamins is like throwing money in the trash. New studies have shown that multivitamin use does not lead to a longer life span or any real cardiovascular or mental health benefits, but it doesn’t show any legitimate signs of harm from taking them either.

There was a study covered by Harvard health several years ago that showed a general multivitamin DID reduce the risk of certain health issues such as cataracts and cancers, but only by an 8% margin which still leaves some doubt as to the validity of those statistics. There was NO benefit shown in mental health or cardiovascular health what so ever. The study also showed that there is no apparent risk of taking a multivitamin either.

              The verdict? There’s just no point! It is recommended that you practice a balanced diet, drink plenty of water and exercise regularly to ensure that your body is getting everything that it needs.
