^ I once took them for about two years, then gave up with no discernable difference to my health. Most averagely balanced diets deliver most of the vits we need, I believe, so multivits are only useful if you have some unusually bad diet. PLUS I read that the body can only absorb x milligrams of vit Y a day. If you crank up that quant with multivits, you're just making your liver and stuff work harder to get rid of excess junk, which is why it's chucking out that famously yellow pee.

Bottom line: eat a bit of fruit and veg instead is my (unprofessional) opinion.
