Vitamins

So, I have been doing my best to get in the regular habit of taking vitamins and fish oil supplements. I figured this was a good thing. Then today I read two different articles on Yahoo Science. One says that the health benefits of Omega-3 fatty acids may not be as great as previously thought and that the supplements may not have the same affects as actually eating the fish. The other article says that long term use of multivitamins may increase a woman's risk of dying. Although it looks like their study may have been pretty dumb and the data are not that strong, it just bothers me when ideas like this come about after always assuming that this was something good for you. This is another reason I am trying to get away from processed foods, etc. I have no doubt that many, many years down the road they will begin to link all sorts of ailments to just that. As great as science can be, we have created so many "things" that are going to come back and bite us in the ass long term (many things already have). I am saying this, of course, after devouring some delicious pork chops that were probably full of antibiotics and hormones, some fresh squash likely contaminated with pesticides, and some canned baked beans with a million ingredients that are difficult to pronounce. I guess I will have to try the all natural thing another day....
