Vitamin pills have healthy role to play

I HAVE noted with interest the frequent articles in many newspapers recently about the dangers of vitamin pills.

As it is now formally admitted that about 300,000 people worldwide die from taking medical drugs pushed by doctors, it is disgraceful that people are highlighting the ‘dangers’ of vitamin pills.

Paté, whiskey, fluoride, aspartame and aspirin, for instance, are far more dangerous than any vitamin pill when taken in huge amounts. But sensible people don’t do that and those products are not under attack by anybody (except occasionally, feebly, by the health conscious).
