Maybe Vitamins Aren't Good For You(?)

 The article I took this from was 'in conversation' with a Dietician.  Now of course Dietician is not a proper job title, ranking instead alongside such path-breakers as Feng-Shui advisors, Interior Designers, Life Planners and Psychotherapists as first ones to be chucked off the life raft in emergency situations.  Or possibly eaten.  Anyway, this dietician is loathe to give any concrete answers to questions rather than intimating that, yes, too much of certain types of vitamins may pose minor health risks to certain people.  And don't rely on multivitamin pills because we are all special little snowflakes with different vitamin requirements.  She concludes with the revelatory news that it's a good idea to follow a healthy and balanced diet incorporating fruits and vegetables!  "We are capable of healing in a natural way", she says, (in my mind she's probably making some earnest hand-cupping gesture as she says this, head tilted to one side), "if we give our body what it needs to heal".   


I have nothing more to add.
