(Outside Reading #21) Multivitamins

I read the article called "Multivitamins:harmful, helpful or a wast of time? from kare11.com. Everyone seems to take multivitamins but new studies say they might all be a waste of money and do nothing for your health. Dr. David Winter said that the best way to get your vitamins are from fruit and vegetables, not from a pill. I agree with that and think that fruits and vegetables carry the purest of the vitamins because basically that's where they get all of them anyways. Then you know for sure that you are getting vitamins and don't have to go off a bottle. Dr. david Winter says only a few vitamins or minerals can be taken in pill form such as Vitamin D, B12, and Calcium. Otherwise he says most people don't need to take pills. I think if people want to get more vitamins they should eat simply fruits and vegetables, you can't get much purer than that!
