Frankly, I really don't know whether they significantly help down the road or not. I do feel like I have more energy, particularly with the multiple. One thing I really notice with the multiple is the increased libido!!

I really wish I knew and have wondered since I started reading some articles from very qualified individuals about how unnecessary they are with a good diet. Some nutritionists argue yes and others argue no. Clearly a consistent balanced diet with the appropriate nutrients is much more effective than anything else, yet I really don't see vitamins as detrimental unless you are taking them in excess and emptying your wallet at the same time.

One reason I do take them is my Grandfather is 95 and healthy as an ox. He swears by the vitamins and takes them religiously. He has been taking vitamins, along with a very well balanced diet for many decades so who knows how much of a role the vitamins have had.
