Multivitamins useful?
Hi, I am wondering what the general consensus is on multivitamins. I am taking a lot of things for deficiencies (iron + vit c, b12, folate, d3 + k2, magnesium) and then also omega 3. That’s already quite a lot. But my diet is not the best right now for a lot of reasons (mental health, intolerances, medications etc.) and so I’m particularly worried about not getting enough zinc, calcium, iodine and other b vitamins. My overall health is struggling at the moment and I need to get on top of it, but I keep hearing that with chronic illnesses often multi vitamins can do more harm and a targeted approach may be better but I’m getting tired of taking so many things and trying to figure out the formats and dosages I need.
Does anyone take a multi, even if it’s only a few times a week, and find it useful?
