Anyone here know anything about Vitamins? I heard that multivitamins

Pills are the best, gummies and powder are shit and they don't work that well compared to pills

But yeah, most of /fit/ is pretty much love-hate relationships with vitamins since already the brotein powder has some of them so you only need a good diet in order to get your daily intake of vitamins
But IMO, i'm a cardiobunny that wants to do HIIT so multivitamins are good for me

it all depends of the person desu, so my personal recommendation is the One a day brand senpai

Anyway, haven't been on /fit/ for a while so there might be some changes on the diet that /fit does and what they take as well so maybe an anon will give you a better recommendations

Multivitamins are mostly overhyped commercially, just buy a cheap one you find and take it. However you should focus on incorporating those vitamins through actual food. Eat your vegetables.
The only vitamin supplement I personally noticed a difference from is Vit D3, helped my mood and energy a bit. Definitely try it out at least, specially if you stay a lot indoors or live somewhere with shitty weather.
For better skin and hair google a skincare and hair routine, specific products will do much more than a multivitamin will, although you can only do so much and will come down to your genetics to get truly great hair and skin

I take a powder multivitamin, that has artificial sweeteners in it - makes me crave sweets less.

But why is powder worse than pills?

this, i take multivitamins x2/week but i always try to get most of mine from foods.

also, the average person is vitamin d3 deficient

Pretty much all studies show that multis don't do anything. Same with taking random vitamins. The vitamin D deficiency is a meme from holick, the recommendations from the IOM are like 600 iu a day, which isn't very much at all.
Just remember that the only thing that vitamins and minerals treat are the deficiencies in those molecules.

The calcium in dairy isn't particularly bioavailable. You're more likely to be deficient if you don't eat any greens or broccoli.
