Does anyone take these? I've got to the age of 26 and never taken anything of the sort in my life! Are they just a load of marketing rubbish, or are they really beneficial?

I feel like my body needs something. I'm training hard for a triathlon 5 days a week, and i'm starting to feel a bit run down and like maybe i'm missing something.

Do these help? And if so, what do people recommend?

I plop a Berocca tablet into a half litre bottle of water every morning and drink it on the way to work.

Gives you everything you need and also gets half a litre of water into me early on.

Just be careful when using communal toilets later in the morning hehe

I personally doubt the need for them if your diet is varied and healthy.

I do however take them sometimes when I'm dieting hard as my diet isn't very varied so I think it can help to cover the bases.

There is a great deal of conflicting evidence out there about if they are useful or not.
