Multivitamins are not as good as the nutrients you get from real foods. The vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants, water, fibre, phytochemicals and other benefits of vegetables are very important in terms of your overall health (both short and long term) - and will, in turn, impact on your muscle growth.

It is really not that hard to incorporate a few servings of vegetables in to a good meal plan... Why don't you?

forget the muscle growth, .... i would be more concerned with disease & cancers? There is no way in hell a pill is going 2 take the place of real fruits & vegetables? In ur case, vegetables? Vitamins R a Supplement....pure and simple. (a little extra?) ...(an added bonus?)

I'm no Rocket Scientist but I would guess the 1st thing to Fitness IS..... Healthy eating Habits? Not pill popping as a cure all.

You have to remember that science admittedly hasn't found "everything" in food, so you need a wide variety to make sure you're getting all of the macronutrients your body needs.
