Teenage Worries - Vitamins…?

I take daily vitamins, but I was just wondering, if I stop taking them, will I not grow as much. The vitamins are just normal ones for children, but will I be as tall as I was? Thanks x

Answer:
You certainly won't shrink if you stop taking them. However, some vitamins and minerals do have an important part to play in healthy growth of bones and tissue. We all know, for example, about calcium being required for healthy bone development, but calcium alone can’t be utilised by the body without sufficient Vitamin D also being present. There are lots of other interactions between vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that can affect healthy development. If you're at all worried I would state keep taking the multi-vitamins as a sort of insurance policy. If your diet is lacking in anything at all (and let's face it, who eats perfectly healthily all of the time?) the vitamins will then help to fill in any gaps that there might be.
