"Multivitamin researchers say "case is closed" after studies find no health benefits"

[MRK]

I want you libtardarians to stop arguing with the pros. Me--myself--I'm going down to Walmarx to get a flu shot, a bottle of enriched ketchup, and a case of Gatorade.

Sounds like you're set for the week.

Cayenne pepper, turmeric, garlic, onion.

Big weight loss from I think the cayenne pepper. I wasn't taking those things for that, but, fat is really coming off. I'm not hungry, and apparently cayenne pepper increases the metabolism.

I do the same herbs-

Also, everyone- cayenne is an herbal truck, It will take other herbs to their destination in seconds instead of hours, when taken together.

AND- WORD OF WARNING:

NEVER take cayenne in pill or capsule form. The tastebuds need to prepare the body for cayenne, and unless you have an exceptionally strong digestive tract, you will end up with stomach aches and think that cayenne is baaaaaaaad.

Take it straight, in a lemonade or some kind of drink or food.

I learned that the hard way. :o

I have been taking vitamin C for about a year. It seems to be working pretty good at helping me ward off colds. Right after Thanksgiving I started to come down with a cold but it went away after a few days. I was exposed to several sickly people during Thanksgiving. Sounds to me like the drug companies have greased someone's palms.

Was the brand / type of multivitamin even mentioned in the article? I'd be willing to bet that a high-quality multi may have different results than something like One-A-Day / Centrum, though the study might have just been on people who use *any brand* of multi. Regardless, they are not all created equally. I can't remember the last time I've been sick since taking my most recent multi + Vitamin C + Magnesium.

That and maybe they want to lock up their monopoly.

Something else occurred to me about this sort of testing. I've come across people that seemed vitamin deficient vary rarely. They were like one in a thousand. Everyone else in the same environment seemed fine. I think if you did a study on a huge group the benefits that the one person may gain could be drown out by all of the healthy people in the group.


Maybe like the article says is a lot of the vitamins go to waste. I wonder how that compares with other times in life when we error on the side of caution.

Do you suffer from a lack of comprehension skills?

She suffers from the inability to think clearly, so that definitely affects her comprehension skills. She likes to claim the "science" of today is supreme, without even knowing what real science even involves.

Please tell me what you think real science involves, RickyJ.

But vitamin shells are usually made so your system can break it down without chewing it, unlike kernels of corn shells which have to be breached before one can use the nutrient stored inside. I know there are created to give a timed release at various stages of digestion but I find it hard to believe that any manufacturer will make vitamin shells that your digestive system is incapable to breaking down at all stages of digestion.

this^^ If you leave a capsule in a bit of water on a vitamin tray accidentally, it dissolves quite quickly. I learned this the hard way. :o

I don't use multivitamins... I have a garden and freeze/can quality non GMO/organic food full of chlorophyll, micro/macro nutrients... I don't need questionable synthetic vitamins
