the answer is NO- if your eating right- then no need for supplements.

the answer is YES. It is known that it's almost impossible to intake everyday's needed nutrition correctly....even tho you eat healthy. Do some search, then it becomes obvious.

There is a book called Doctor Yourself by Andrew Saul that has good general recommendations that I like. It's written in a fun to read style, too. I used to think that just eating a sensible diet was enough until my son became schizophrenic and now we are having good results treating him with vitamins and diet but if he had been on supplements maybe he wouldn't have had the problem in the first place so I have turned around 180 degrees on that one and now we all take them. Besides that, we have discovered that vitamin C plus niacin really helps and sometimes completely eliminates my husband's asthma symptoms.

I have heard of this, average vitamin C in an oragne is only 45mg but 500mg is needed to saturate our plasma that means to see the therapeutic effects. I don't know how true as i heard this from my lecturer in school. Anyway, i heard of if u drink coffee or had extreme stress or smoke, your need for vitamins or supplements will be higher than others. Stress create free radicals, and vitamins are anti-oxidants that will destroy these free radicals. Therefore i think that if you are feeling fatigue or stress out, it will be good to include vitamins and supplements in your diet other than having a healthy diet daily...
