Question 3

do multivitamins help gain weight?

Accepted Answer

Probably NOT: Multivitamins aid in metabolism but will not cause weight gain per se.  Weight gain is governed by extra calories taken in minus calories needed for the body to function. However, one medical condition =hyperthyroidism causes a 'hyper-metabolic state' causing weight loss and other symptoms. Thyroid blood tests should be checked if unexplained weight gain/loss is noted.

Accepted Answer

Possible : Chronic intake of diazepam has been associated with some weight gain.  However, the precise reason behind why this happens is not really fully understood.
