Summary:
The global vitamin industry is worth billions of pounds. If you believe the hype, vitamin pills are the answer to all your problems - they keep your heart healthy, improve your intelligence, make your hair shine, and are essential for general well-being. And we do believe it. But official advice says we don't really need vitamins. They're only recommended for pregnant women, very young children, and the elderly. So what information should we trust? And should you be taking vitamins? This timely investigation uncovers the truth.
