Vitamins are essential nutrients our bodies need to function, supporting immune health, energy production and even brain function. But with entire aisles dedicated to multivitamins, immune boosters, gummies and supplements, it’s easy to wonder: what should you really be taking, if anything? On this episode, Chuck Gaidica is joined by Dr. Angela Seabright, Care Management Physician at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan. Together, they discuss multivitamins, what’s in them, and who, if anyone, should be taking one.

In this episode of A Healthier Michigan Podcast, we explore:

What are multivitamins?
Who should consider taking them?
Why are they so popular?
Are there any risks?
