Multivitamins Reduce Heart Attack Risk

A recent paper in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (Multivitamin use and the risk of myocardial infarction: a population-based cohort of Swedish women) demonstrated that women who took a daily multivitamin/mineral had a 27% lower risk of a heart attack over a 5 year period. I think it is prudent for everyone to take a quality multivitamin/mineral and a quality fish oil to increase the likelihood of having optimal levels of important nutrients, including Vitamins A, C, D, folic acid, magnesium, potassium, and omega 3 fats.
