Your friend Tanya is complaining of fatigue and is asking your advice about taking a multivitamin. How would you respond to her? Justify your position
You might tell Tanya that without a doctor checking her out, she runs the real possibility that taking the supplement would mask a more serious medical problem that needs to be addressed. Additionally, it is more likely that she would actually cause additional health problems by having too much of certain vitamins in her system, leading to a toxicity. Also, many supplements do not actually work the way they were intended, with many not ever being absorbed into the blood stream, making them a waste of money.
