Vitamins not contained in the food is not usually helpful .Body will absorb vitamins as it needs from the food and any artificial in take shall be passed out in motion;the same applies to all tonics and iron tablets.Instead, it is advisable to take food that contain these nutrients.
bout half of all adult Americans take a daily multivitamin, according to industry data, but are these supplements really necessary?

Which vitamins and minerals are essential for good health?

And when you do things like this, when you take 33 times the recommended daily allowance of Vitamin E, you are messing around with mother nature. I think if people saw that one capsule as 1,700 almonds, they would be hesitant to take it. But they don’t see it that way.
But our health is linked to both to the psychological and physiological, and psychological matters.
I’ll give you a story about my daughter, because she’s the perfect example of this. She’s on crew – she rowed at the national level in high school. And when she rows she gets an occasional tingling in her fingers, and she was convinced by her fellow rowers that she has exercise-induced asthma – which she doesn’t have. She wanted a bronchodilator – which she wasn’t going to get – so instead, my wife took her down to the General Nutrition Center and they got something called a Himalayan sea-salt puffer. It’s just basically this salt which presumably came from the Himalayan mountains, and it’s put in this plastic canister at the top of which there are holes. So you’re just breathing in salt. And my daughter thought this was great – she’s sitting at the breakfast table reading this box about Himalayan formations thousands of years old – and I say to her: “Honey, do you really think that the sodium chloride in this is going to be any different than the sodium chlorate in that salt shaker?” She looks at me and says: “Will you let me believe in something, damnit?”
And she’s right. If I say nothing instead of being a jerk like I was, she’d believe in this, and then it would help her relax – and that’s really her problem, she gets tense and she forgets to breathe. Now, she inhales this, remembers to breathe, she feels better, and she thinks it’s the salt. But even if it’s not the salt, that’s OK because it certainly isn’t hurting her.

ABC News contacted 25 primary care physicians and asked them which vitamins — if any — they recommend to their patients.
Most doctors said they do not recommend daily vitamins to their healthy patients, and even among pro-vitamin doctors, some said they viewed one-a-days as a kind of insurance policy on nutrition, but were not wholly convinced they were necessary.
