Do ya'll over 50 take a daily vitamin, and if so, which one and why?

Mens Multi Vitamin just because.

Vitamin D because a blood test determined I was deficient in it.

I'll take some zinc here and there if I'm around others that are ill.

I take lots of supplements every morning and evening. I just go off what my blood tests say I am deficient in and whatever my Dr recommends

@V2Pnutrition Valley to Peak has some great informational podcasts on the subject.

Bloodwork looks good, so I take none

For those that are taking a MV, is there a brand your PCP recommends, or do they just say find the cheapest one on the shelf? I've heard quality and absorption can vary, but not sure if that's just marketing hype.

I like Thorne or Pure Encapsulations

I looked into taking something and came to the conclusion that unless my blood work says I need something then I am getting enough through my diet.
