50 large scale studies on supplements showing no health benefits? I guess they didnt bother looking at L Arginine and L Citrulline which are nitric oxide stimulators, proven to reverse artery damage and prevent heart disease by 3 NOBEL PRIZE winning researchers! In fact they won the Nobel prize for their study on nitric oxide, yet once again western medicine tries to imply vitamins and or supplemenst are a wast! Its pathetic and i lose respect for western "doctors" when they tout this garbage!

Very inaccurate article. Bogus. Those Vit e studies have been reversed. I have taken 5,000 mg of vitamin C daily for 40 years. In excellent health, work everyday on my ranch. Haven't seen a doctor for thirty years. I'm 73.
No deaths in 25 years ... Claims that vitamins hurt are obviously rank speculation.

Eat a whole food diet of fruits and vegetables. Juice Plus is a whole food concentrate to augment a healthy diet. see powerfueljuiceplus{dot}com

I take pet vitamins, they're just as good and a whole lot cheaper. Hmmm wonder if premium cat food could be mixed in with meatloaf? Why not? Will see if the family notices it! LOL!

I am a nutritionist. I believed in food supplements, but all the recent studies prove that they do not work or that they dangerous for our health (premature death, cancer, cardiovascular disease). People do not need to take vitamins in a pill. Human beings evolved to take vitamins with their food. Societies who live long like Okinawa do not take vitamins. They live longer, because they eat healthy. Buy organic foods, not supplements. Food supplements are pseudoscience. The end of the food supplements is coming.
