no it's not too young. Centrum has certain percentages of the RDA of most of the vitamins and minerals that you need. Take it it will be fine.

I wouldnt take centrum, or any man-made vitamin. The body was NOT meant to take it, so probably less than 1% of it actually gets used by the body. The rest is either mistaken for a poison and washed away by liquids, just eat lots of vitamin enriched food and fiber. I blame it all on the government. Do some research... lol i pity the fool who relies on those...

CENTRUM IS A CRAP VITAMIN!!!!!
A good test for a good vitamin
1>You should be able to smell it and very strongly
2> if u take a good vitamin on an empty stomach u will usually get nauseous or sickly.
These both often mean a real strong/good vitamin
Once daily, centrum, and most other commercial brands SUCK!!

No it is not. You can take a good multivitamin even as a kid. The nutrient needs usually change as you grow older hence the things like Centrum Silver for thoes over fifty and the like.

Centrum is just a multi vitamin, you can take any multi-vitamin as long as it does enough to supplement yout nutrition.

No! Take the High preformance if you can. I've been doing it for years now and it has saved my life in a lot of ways.
Wal - mart has the 'One Source' available which is the equvilant ot Centrum Preformance but at half the cost.

You are old enough to take adult vitamins when you have the physical signs of adulthood for your gender (armpit hair, deeper voice as examples in a male)
They are just fine as far as over the counter vitamins go.

No. It is best to eat a balanced diet, but a multivit a day wont hurt.
