A VERY POWERFULL ARTICLE In resumé, the reason why we should not take vitamins daily is that when mitochondria turns food into energy, it uses oxigen (oxidation) and that creates free radicals. Those free radical are the cause of gene and vascular damage. They noticed that people who ate fruits had antioxidents that prevented that damage hence the big hype but the unforeseen consequence of taking to much vitamines and antioxidant supplements is that the imune system uses these free radicals to kill viruses and fight cancer. Hence why all the studies mentioned here (done on 39 000 to 136 000 people) show that the intake of the varied food supplements actually increased cancer by up to 29%. Of course, these were large doses and if you have a lower count of certain vitamines you should keep them balance but thr overall claims that large dose of food supplements could help you have been basically all nullified.
