What vitamins are: most important actually changes throughout life. Many young adults have suboptimal eating habits; a balanced diet can eliminate the need for any vitamin supplements. Nutrients most needed in young women are calcium (1200 mg daily) and vitamin D (15 micrograms). Omega-3 fatty acids are important as well as iron (18 mg), vitamins A (700 microgram), C (75 mg) and E (90 microgram).

Diet: A healthy balanced diet negates the need for vitamins. But if you feel your diet is insufficient, a regular multivitamin should cover the bases. Women should take one with iron to replace that lost with menstruation.
