Stores such as GNC and Vitamin shoppe sell a multivitamin pill and if you take it daily, it should meet all the requirements.

I am an athlete and since I usually don't get in the proper nutrition daily because i am a college kid I take a multivitamin. I currently take Mega Men sport which is a dietary supplement. Its a premium performance multivitamin for active men. I take this with a meal and I take 2 tablets daily. I also take another type of multivitamin which is called From the earth Green
Phyters. I get all the phytonutrients from green foods such as green beans and vegetables taking this dietary supplement. Both of these supplements are no more than 20 dollars and can find them at any local store.Reference: http://magazine.stack.com/TheIssue/Article/5776/Best_Multivitamins.aspx

This was a very interesting blog. I didn't know you could really die from not getting enough vitamins. I personally take Flintstones vitamins still because the adult ones are too strong. I am curious if they help adults the same way they help children. Great job.
Yes, I'm also taking multivitamins… it's an indespensable part of my daily routine.
I take a multivitamin every day myself just to help my body out. I should maybe look into something like that Green Phyters that you said. Sometimes I get caught up and can't get enough vegetables in my diet. Good info.
