I’ve gone back and forth on taking a multivitamin since I know my diet isn’t all that great. Ideally I should be working to improve that diet but let’s say due to certain circumstances that’s a bit difficult at the moment.
Would it be worth taking a 1 a day multivitamin to at least correct some possible deficiency or is it very unlikely that it would have any effect?
Not asking for professional medical advice or anything, mostly looking to see if anyone else is taking a multivitamin and if so why?
I find they take the edge off my food cravings. But if you have a balanced diet with no natural deficiencies then you’re probably fine.
Yeah I find that a couple of things about my mood, metabolism, and energy level are slightly better on a week when I am taking my vitamins than on a week where I didn’t. It could all be about one specific nutrient that my diet is poor at delivering to me, but I am not aware of because I’m lazy, not very educated and focused on other things. As long as they don’t harm me, I’m content to piss 99% of them out as long as the other 1% is valuable. Anyway all my urine goes into my compost pile so it’s just micronutrients for my garden.
