Many studies have been conducted to verify the assumed beneficial effects of vitamin and mineral supplements. Although the results of epidemiologic observational studies almost uniformly have been positive, the results of individual randomized clinical trials undertaken to corroborate this hypothesis have remained largely inconclusive. Only through the systematic review of several randomized clinical trials have we gained the power and the precision to detect clinical harms and benefits.
