Vitamin Supplements, should I take them?

[TiagoHondo]

I've seen some people in the forum saying that I shouldn't take them, which left me confused because in the fitness community they're seen as a good thing, also, are ZMA's and Omega 3 worth supplementing?

I have a iron defieciency, i did some blood work like 2 months ago and thats the only thing that I'm lacking

u should probably test If u actually are deficient in any micronutrient. If you're not deficient, excessive intake of zinc or magnesium could cause side effects like nausea, digestive issues or interference with other minerals.

I mean, taking 1 multivitamin a day should work well for like 99.9% of people no?

low dose iron then combined with vitamin C for absorption

But eating organs like liver once a week can help too

edit : and after a 2 months cure, do a blood test to see if it is absorbed, and to see if your body didn't deplete his copper and zinc micronutrients
