multivitamins are a waste of money. You cannot take all those micronutrients at the same time. Why? Because some block the absorption of others.
You should only take stuff that works in SYNERGY. Multivitamin makers are scams. They are aware that some combos do not work together but they still include them together. I took a look at the label and that is what is happening in yours as well, of course. Not to mention, some dosages are too high while others are too low.
The correct amount is 1000% DV for minerals and water-soluble vitamins, and 400% DV for fat-soluble vitamins. This is the total daily amount. From this you subtract what you ALREADY take from your own diet (foods, drinks...). Chances are, if your diet is COMPLETE and ORGANIC, you already hit the right amounts of everything.
When you already have the right amounts of everything from your diet, the only reason to go above the recommended amount is if you have a deficiency, until such deficiency is solved, or if you need to treat certain conditions such as oxidative stress. Most people are deficient in vitamin C, D and others because they do not eat a complete organic diet.
