  • Honestly, not US/World politics. That kind of content is permeating everywhere on the internet and gets annoying quickly for non-US people. I have nothing against the content itself. Keeping some communities clean from politics content helps engage people around the world of diverse ideologies. Thanks for being civil with this discussion.

    Edit: I now realize that you are a mod of this community and maybe it is me who is wrong about my expectations about what content should be here. I was maybe misled by the name “funhole” which I associated to Reddit’s “funny”








  • I think this is the best take. OP, multivitamins do work. Of course you need to fix your diet, of course it’s better to ingest the vitamin with the food so it can be absorbed better. Of course you should talk to a doctor. But if you have a deficiency of an important vitamin such as C or D, you will notice the difference.

    Regarding overdoses, it is almost impossible to hurt yourself by taking a typical OTC multivitamin pill.

    Consider some specific foods which give you a boost of the vitamin, such as canned tuna for Omega-3, Brazil nuts for selenium, etc.

    But, at the end of the day, the general recommendation is that multivitamins are safe and pretty decent. I wouldn’t recommend any drug to a random person on the internet but multivitamins are fine.
