A member asked:
How come a multivitamin is the same size of an individual vitamin? in other words, how come my multivitamin, which contains all sorts of vitamins, is the same size as just a vitamin c?

Size: Vitamins ,in terms of mass, are mostly ingredients other than the actual vitamin molecule(s). Things such as binders, preservatives, flavorings, colorings, hardeners, etc.
