Long but interesting article from the NY Times Sunday magazine of 1/28/07. Would be interested in your take on it, Charters (in places it echoes some of the comments I've seen you make on this thread). nytimes.com One brief quotation from the article (which doesn't really give the flavor (pun intended) of the whole article): "People who take supplements are healthier than the population at large, but their health probably has nothing whatsoever to do with the supplements they take — which recent studies have suggested are worthless. Supplement-takers are better-educated, more-affluent people who, almost by definition, take a greater-than-normal interest in personal health — confounding factors that probably account for their superior health."
