Rate your vitamin

When there is a question about anything, people will go to the internet.  The internet is trustworthy. Right?  Well although it is a great resource of information, be cautious about what you read. 

If you are looking for the best supplements (vitamins) on the internet, then question the source.  There is a website, Multi Vitamin Guide.  This website has a rating of vitamins.  But they don't state who they are, how the rating was created, and there aren't any links to the specific companies so that you, the buyer, can see what is in each vitamin.  The website says it is the result of over 6 years of scientific research and analysis.  But they don't reveal who "they" are.  Also, the top rated vitamins are from companies that many haven't heard of. 

Be cautious of what minerals/vitamins are in a multi-vitamin.  For example this website's recommendation of Vitamin A is 7500 IUs.  The Daily Value recommendation is 5,000 IU.  Most experts recommend that half come from beta-carotene to avoid the risk of bone fractures cause by high doses of Vitamin A.
