Who needs multivitamins?

Whilst a 'balanced' diet will supply all the necessary nutrients we need, our busy lifestyles can mean that people do not receive all the nutrients required in the right quantities every day to maintain good health. Nutritionists recommend eating at least five portions of fruit and vegetables every day. This is often difficult to achieve.

There are many groups of people who may benefit from additional vitamins:

• Infants and children
• Adolescents
• The elderly
• Women of child-bearing age
• Those individuals with limited exposure to sunlight, as they may be at risk from a lack of vitamin D
• Individuals who are following a slimming diet
• Strict vegetarians and vegans
• Food faddists
• People with busy lifestyles who find it difficult to eat a balanced diet every day
• Athletes in training
