Do vitamin supplements and multivitamins actually work?

Yup. If you look closely at the organizations that suggest otherwise, they’re the savage ones who lose money when you’re generally healthier and make money when you’re generally less healthy. Believing someone who is financially invested in your behavior is fundamentally suicidal, unless you are identically financially invested.

I've started taking them and been on them for a month. I'll reserve judgement but don't feel any better yet. Hoping they'd give me a boost as I've been lethargic in the morning Guess I'll give it another few months. I do get that it takes time and isn't instant

With consistency yes. Best to take it every day or every other day. I also avoid taking too much at once because the body can only absorb so much at a time. I take biotin and collagen and it took about 3 months to notice the results.

Always best to get tested to see what you are actually lacking. I’ve known a lot of people who really messed up their system by having too much of one thing. They see to do more harm than good in a lot of folks.

They work, if you get good ones.
By that I mean vitamins and minerals that have been derived from natural sources and in which the synergistic molecular chains are intact.
Synthetic molecules are usually useless, because the body will not absorb them.

They do, I take prenatal. However it's best to try to get all your vitamins naturally from food as much as you can.

I think they do. I've been taking multivitamins for years, and rarely get sick. It's a long term thing that they work, not anything instant.

That depends what you expect those pills to do. For me they do their work. Red Bull won't make you grow wings but a happy meal could make someone happy.

what do you mean "work"? what do you expect to happen when you take them?

RationalMale · Answer

It depends on what you hope they'll do. They work great for what they actually do, yes.
