Physicians Urge Americans to Stop Wasting Money on Supplements | Yahoo Health
here are some of the high lights.
We need vitamins and minerals to function, explains one of the editorialists, Dr. Eliseo Guallar. So many people think, the more you get, the better you should be. But we actually have a lot of accumulated evidence that vitamin supplements arent helping. They arent working in the general population to prevent chronic disease.
the general public as a whole do not take vitamins.exspecially in the urban areas.
"The researchers also found no consistent pattern of harm with multivitamin use. But they did find several studies linking specific supplements to certain ailments. For example, beta-carotene supplements may boost the risk of lung cancer and death among high-risk populations, such as smokers."
you gave beta caritine to smokers and they got lung cancer anyway.who would of thunk it.
buy the way its vitamin a you would want to take if you are a smoker.
"The researchers assigned nearly 6,000 participants over the age of 64 to a daily multivitamin or placebo regimen. Over twelve years, they assessed changes in participants cognitive function and found no significant differences between multivitamin and placebo users."
The researchers conclude that daily multivitamin use provides no benefit for preventing cognitive decline.
they also dont help after you allready have (insert your deseise here)
heres another gem along the same lines.
"In another study published in AOIM, researchers assigned over 1,700 men and women to a high-dose multivitamin or placebo regimen. All of the participants had experienced a heart attack at least six weeks before the start of the study.
After an average follow-up of 4.6 years, the researchers found no difference in the rate of recurrent cardiovascular events among participants who took supplements compared to those who did not. Multivitamins did not appear to be harmful; however, the supplements also did not seem to offer any protection against ongoing heart problems"
it goes on and on like this.

these articles started appearing about a year ago and keep getting more and more outragious.
