Vitamin pills are not miracle cures.
It is commonly believed that taking mega-doses of certain vitamins will act like medicine to cure or prevent certain ailments. For instance, vitamin C is suggested as a cure for the common cold, and vitamin E is widely promoted as a beneficial antioxidant to help prevent heart disease.
After extensive research, however, neither of these claims has been shown to be true. Large-scale studies have consistently shown little benefit in taking mega-doses of supplements. In fact, there is some evidence that taking high-dose supplements to prevent or cure major chronic diseases (such as heart disease and cancer), may be harmful to your health.

A multivitamin is like an insurance policy, is a waste of money until you need to make a claim or in this case have a vitamin deficiency.
Unfortunately, vitamin poisoning due to unnecessary intake is getting more common now! It's highly promoted and marketed commodity, however, becoming dangerous.

It's good information but this vitamin doesn't have very high dosages compared to other brands
Yeah nice, let’s get our medical information from SMH.
Your other link indicates that a significant majority of poisonings were literal overdoses or consumption of high dose supplements intended for specific medical conditions.
A common multivitamin taken as per the packaging, which equates to an intake significantly under the medical limits even when including common dietary intakes is absolutely not a concern for poisoning.
One vitamin that people should be taking is D3. Most people are deficient and the health and preventive benefits can be huge
Taking health advice from the Victorian government. Lol.
The Victorian government will live longer than us all.
There was someone in here ages ago talking about vit C mega dosing. Posted something similar about dangers etc. Ironically during covid plus other colds, it helped me alot.
It could be the massive amount of sugar in vitamin C pills making you feel better. I feel pretty good after drinking orange juice because sugar.

If youre an idiot. Yes
If you’re going to post facts your facts should be accurate. Many large scale studies have actually found that a boost of vitamin c within 24 hours from symptom onset can have a significant reduction in length and severity of symptoms (cold & flu).
They’ve found no conclusive evidence that long term dosage above recommended dietary levels provides any benefit.
It’s well know that vitamin c is used in the immune systems function, it’s relatively cheap and has no known negative effects within recommended limits.
Even if some people are only getting a placebo effect, if its harmless and it works (that’s what a placebo is), do it.

most hamplanets
have diet of McDonalds, chocolate and white bread
I know, coke zero and a multivitamin will make me healthy
This thing has a lot of different things in it that are good, but suuuuch small quantities for some of them… Better than nothing I guess……..? ?
Pretty much.
Expensive p*ss.
Just eat healthy balanced diet. Yeah, but I don't - need to check effectiveness of extracts vs whole foods.
Why not just do both?
Get a blood test and take vitamins if you need them.
Don't get sucked into pseudoscience bullsh.. and fall for all this marketing crap
that would involve at least 2 GP visits = 100 bucks out of pocket (unless you're under 16 or on concession)
just buy the damn vitamins instead, lol
It should be 1 visit and a free phone call and blood tests show way way more than just vitamin deficiencies.
For me its just 1 $30 payment.
good for you. It cost me $95 last month cause I had to go to a GP to get a blood test letter and then go again for the results cause our system is so amazing at wasting time and money.
I just discovered that all blood test results are uploaded to My Health. So only 1 trip to the doctor.
Then I use ChatGPT to give me better insight than a doctor ever could!
Mine didn't. After calling the clinic for 2 weeks without any update, they finally told me "hey your results are fine and there was nothing wrong so the GP didn't need to call you".
During my last visit to the GP for a strained muscle in my arm, he told me to watch a YouTube video for a strengthening exercise and not to waste money on consulting with the clinic anymore…

I took multivitamin pills decades ago. All they did was make me fart and waste my money. I felt no other effects, just farting all day.
