Multi-vitamins

I've been taking Centrum for most of 18 years. I think it works best with and has a good price. I tried the expense food state multi-vitamins cost 3-4 times the price of Centrum but it doesn't work any better. Often I would get headaches from taking some of these expensive ones so I stuck with Centrum. In the last 3 months, I've stopped taking a multi-vitamin supplement because I get most of my nutrients from eating organic vegetables and fruits. I think I feel better without them.

I am not getting a single cent for saying this. I am offering my experience to help people make good choices. Every dollar I've worked for, I've earned honestly. I am proud of myself and my work ethic. This is unlike those individuals who earn their money dishonestly. These people are in a constant state of guilt and misery. Once such person sold junk bonds to finance the Taj Mahal. Selling high risk junk bonds to make a quick buck for something that they paid very little attention to managing says a lot about the character of the person. It is no wonder such persons are afflicted with low self-esteem.

Be careful of misleading advertising by Centrum which insinuates that it has all your vitamin and mineral needs. But it does not. For instance, the daily RDA for calcium is 1000 mg yet each tablet of Centrum only contains 162 mg. Hardly the total calcium you need for the day. Magnesium, the daily requirement is about 450 mg. Centrum only has 100 mg. And Centrum *does not* have all of the trace minerals either. So the advertising is misleading but the product is decent. I think the best source of vitamins and minerals is from greens. That would be my first choice. I try to get most of my nutrition from the foods I eat. Many vitamin manufacturers give you the delusion that you get all that you need from their product. It gives the person a false sense of security.
