Daily multivitamins don't increase longevity, may raise mortality risk

A study of 390,124 adults found that daily multivitamins do not increase longevity and may raise the risk of early death. Researchers discovered a 4% higher mortality risk among users. The study, published in JAMA Network Open, suggests micronutrients are best obtained from food. Despite a global multivitamin market worth billions, researchers caution against their use due to potential harm like increased cancer and heart disease risks.
