yes. taking too much of one can stop uptake of another.

the rule of thumb in pharmacy is that vitamin tablets "can hurt, cant help". and no i didnt type that wrong

multivites are really a waste?

for the average person, according to the advice put through to me through the board as per pharmacy newspaper, yes

(pharmacy newspaper = bunch of academic pharmacists reviewing research in teh context of what we should tell people as professionals, funded by government with actual health (not sales) as the objective. trustworthiness A+)

I know you all probably heard of AST Multipro 32x...
why are these so popular when taking the recommended amount (2 a day) is very close to overdosing on a lot of the vitamins?

for the average person yes ....eating balanced diet is the best way to go ...but since thats nearly impossible ...i "supplement".
