No they are a waste of money , eat a varied diet of fresh foods with lots of fruit and vegetables , get some exercise (and sunshine for VD) and save your money.

No, as I get all the nutrition I need from the food I eat.

Re: Do you take any vitamins or supplements?

I buy a lot of herbal supplements - much easier (and more cost effective) than preparing your own.

Vitamins I would generally agree that your body can assimilate these best from foods, rather than synthetic ones. Not the case for all though, and the concentrations can be better in prepared solutions.

Quite agree Meg these herbal supplements are a total waste of money.
I take 10 prescription medications each day and would not wish to add to my already full pill regime
Most, if not all these supplements are not required and there would be more benefit to your body by eating the cardboard box that they came in

I used to take odourless garlic and a couple of other things but got out of the habit.

Can't see how ordinary bit pills can do much, if anything, unless you are def lacking in something or other
