Mulvitamins are intended to help individuals achieve a normal level of nutrition as defined by doctors and scientists. Through proper application of vitamins and minerals from their various sources, better health can be achieved. Although some people argue that there are no real benefits to taking multivitamins, the benefits of multivitamins are most often subtle and supplement the benefits individuals gain from good health practices such as eating healthy foods and follow an exercise program. The benefits of multivitamins do not translate into a rapid and apparent increase in physical strength, endurance, or a decrease in body fat percentage. Rather, the subtle effects of better health in terms of skin, teeth, nails, bones and an improved immune system work together to provide a better baseline level of health. Once the body has had a chance to adapt to these changes, they may not even be noticeable at first. However, better health for various parts of the body is always beneficial, and the increased amount of energy an individual will benefit from may allow them to exercise more often with less energy.
