> you take those vitamins because someone, somewhere at some time was pushing them as an amazing cure. A couple studies were done, data was likely cherry picked, and now you pay money to some company to give it to you. That company makes very sure that beneficial studies are done as often as possible.
I didn't state my reasons for taking them and you have no idea what they are. This is a strawman.

- thenomad 13y agoSpeaking as someone who takes a few rather carefully chosen supplements, it's possible that some people take dietary supplements in that way, but I don't. So saying that "one" does those things doesn't ring true for me, either.
