Do you take a vitamin supplement daily?

Yes/No - and have you always, or is this a 'modern' trend?

I have never really, but am trying one now. I really think it's better to get your vitamins through a good, balanced diet, but am being advised to take vitamins now ...

    I take a children's vitamin (adult ones make me sick), fish oil, and calcium.

    It started when I was too anemic to donate blood, then I added the fish oil, and my doctor wanted me to take calcium.

    I eat very well and exercise.

    I have been taking a multi-vitamin, B-12 and Iron supplement for a few years now. The trend was started while I took careof my mom and son and didn't always take time to eat the right thing. B-12 is for my heart and the iron is because despite trying to eat iron rich foods I was still very anemic.

    The only wine I drink is White Zinfandel...so I guess I like pink wine.

    I hear a glass of cabernet or something dark like that is good for the heart though. :)

    Yep. Even though some weird doctor claims they are harmful. Heck, for more than 40 years, the doctors have been claiming that eating, drinking, and breathing are harmful to your health. So, what's news? But, in the meantime, there is no way any one can get all the vitamins and minerals they claim a person needs daily without taking vitamins...or way overeating!

    I take a multi-vitamin (Centrum type) and 500 mg of C. The multi-vitamin just since I've been with my current wife and just a few months on the C.

    Yes. I always take a multivitamin ( when I remember ). :)

    With the way foods are today, I don't think anyone eats a good, balanced diet. So, supplements are necessary.
