A member asked:

How do i take my daily needs of food vitamin requirements with out over eating a single type of foods?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Vary it: A cheap multivitamin / mineral tablet is plenty, and there's little wisdom in obsessively counting how much of what nutrient is in how much of what you eat. The rda's are set high and if you avoid extremes (all "junk food" and uninformed-vegetarian) you'll be fine. The common dietary deficiencies in the usa are vitamin d and iron. Life's hard enough without the extra burden of worry. Good luck.
