Stick to a generic multivitamin that provides 100% of the US RDA for vitamins and minerals. Don't waste your money on expensive brand name vitamins--the raw vitamins used for formulations come from the same sources anyway.

Supplement with extra vitamin E, C, and Selenium if you need extra antioxidants, but for the most part you should be fine with a balanced diet that includes plenty of complex carbs, complete proteins, vegetables, and fruit.

If you eat a well balanced diet, then all multivitamins will do is give you expensive urine, since you will excrete out everything you don't need.

It's when your diet is lacking that you need the multivitamins, and pretty much any one of them out there will suit you.
