By Nancy Clark

Dear Nancy,

I am a 24-year-old grad student who runs 6 miles a day. I take many, many vitamins each day, and am wondering if this is all a big hoax. I follow what books and doctors have told me along the way and am just trying to maintain my health. The pills are not only a hassle to take but are also expensive. Do I really need all of these?
