Multivitamins: Most multivitamins are basically the same, so it doesnt matter which one you purchase. The question is whether these multivitamins actually work or are they just urinated out with little benefit.

Many considerations: Good question. There is a tremendous variation in the quality of multivitamins. Some (usually the cheap ones) have poorly absorbed and even toxic forms of nutrients (like synthetic vit e) & dangerous additives like titanium dioxide and artificial colors. http://www.multivitaminguide.org/ has independent ratings of 101 multivitamins. Any of the top 30 are good choices. See my comment for more info:.
