Well the best answer for this is have your doctor run some basic vitamin test on your blood and this way they will let you know if you are deficient in certain areas and depending on your insurance they can give you a description or if you don't have a doctor or don't want to go through the hassle try multi-vitamins like centrum or other brands that come in low doses of each vitamin that may help your body

Everyone needs to supplement their diet with vitamins and minerals. Over the counter ones may not be enough or are properly assseyed. One should take pharmaceutical grade after determining their true needs as mentioned above.

A single multi-vitamin is usually good enough, unless your doctor says otherwise.

I usually buy the cheapest store brand available at Wal-Mart, usually a bottle of 300 for around $12.00.

Answer 9

Just go for the regulars:
Calcium, especially if you're getting older.
Vitamin D, to help absorb your calcium
Vitamin C, to boost your immune system and help fight heart disease.
Lastly, Iron to keep your blood full of oxygen to give you more energy.

Most of these you can find in a multivitamin or you could take them seperatly if you wish.
