I read similar articles that came out last week...primarily attacking the "HYPE" put out there by the Vitamin companies....and I agree, many if not most are false marketing, and being scrutinized by the FDA.....

When I was a diabetic, I took a lot of Cinnamon...did absolutely nothing....

The big argument is that all the essential Vitamins we need can, and are obtained naturally through normal eating.....the thought to ponder though is that with WLS, What is normal eating??? Are we getting what we need naturally?

So, IMO, I would not be looking for Cancer Cures or anti-depressants, but I am concerned about getting my "Normal" needs met, while maintain a very limited food intake....

It is good to see the vitamins and supplements I do take daily are at the top in the large balloons, the Omegas, Vitamin D, Green Tea, and others, All of which were recommended by my Dr.'s, and some, such as the fish oil I take (LOVAZA), is an Rx and not over the counter....

My morning smoothies are full of anti-oxidants, that I know for sure....
