Where do the vitamins come from that are used in vitamin supplements. Are they manufactured chemically or from natural sources such as plants?

most come from natrual extracts, some are chemicaly made. You can read the bottle to make sure you are getting natrual. Also buy from a holistic shop, they sell all natrual.

Vitamins happen to be a thing of nature, just like everything else, they're just the combination of atoms that make stuff that happens to be really useful to us in certain doses. But vitamins in a bottle are manufactured by human hand. It is as simple as knowing the correct chemical composition and being a really good scientist!

sorry to say but nothing made by humans are from natural source.........though they seem and function so but actually people use chemicals which are as or more useful than the naturals.................the vitamins made by humans use ester...[an organic often fragrant compound formed in a reaction between an acid and an alcohol with the elimination of water] but they are not harmful..........

I think it depends on the brand. There's one called Nature Made- I think it's from plants.

I think most are chemical synthetics, which is the reason you should not bother with them and stick to a healthy all round diet
