Hi Elana! I used to take a multi-vitamin, but when I was tested for Vitamin D it turned out my levels were super low, so that really made me think the multi-vitamin I had been taking was worthless. Now I take specific individual vitamins at a much higher dose than you would find in a multi-vitamin. I take several supplements and sometimes I do wonder if it's just a waste of money. I just don't know.....Some people swear by supplements, but I can't honestly say that I notice a big difference in how I feel, even though I do take a bunch of stuff. But I keep taking it anyway!!

Maybe you could get some blood tests to see if you are low in anything, for example, Vitamin D or B12, and if you are, you could take those supplements??
