Frequently asked questions
Most people should get the vitamins they need from eating a balanced diet, but some people may need extra supplements. The supplements you should take daily will depend on a few factors, such as health conditions, age, or whether you can get particular vitamins through your diet.
The only exception to this is vitamin D. The body makes vitamin D directly from sunlight on the skin when we’re outdoors, but between October and March in the UK, we do not make enough. As a result, a daily supplement of vitamin D is recommended during this period.
Take our vitamins quiz to see which vitamins and supplements are recommended for you.
Vitamins lose their potency after their best before date. They are generally not considered unsafe to take, but the more time that passes after the expiry date, the less effective they are likely to be. It is not recommended to take out of date vitamins.
There are considered to be 13 essential vitamins that your body needs. These are:
- Vitamin A
- Vitamin C
- Vitamin D
- Vitamin E
- Vitamin K
- B vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, biotin, pyridoxine, B12, folate)
You should be able to get enough of these vitamins by eating a healthy and balanced diet, although supplements can help you reach the recommended amounts. However, a daily supplement of vitamin D between October and March is recommended, as it is very difficult to get sufficient levels of vitamin D from diet alone.
During pregnancy, you can get most of the vitamins you need by eating a healthy and varied diet. However, it is recommended that you take 400µg folic acid daily from before you’re pregnant until you’re 12 weeks pregnant, and 10µg vitamin D daily between September and March and throughout your pregnancy if you are at particular risk of deficiency. Do not take cod liver oil or vitamin A (retinol) supplements as this could harm your baby.
Vitamins that can contribute to a reduction in tiredness and fatigue include B vitamins, vitamin C, magnesium & iron. Take a look at our ‘Shop by goal’ section to see which supplements we offer that may support you.
Always make sure to see your GP if you are suffering from tiredness & fatigue that is not getting better, as it could be a sign of a medical condition that vitamins will not treat.
