Neutral: Multivitamins are not usually needed for people in the developed countries except in cases of severe dietary restrictions. There is little proof that they would do much for allergies.

Excluding a food from your diet for a week &amp; re-introducing it can often confirm/exclude the issue if symptoms are minor.
