A multivitamin a day may keep heart attacks away Readers will be familiar with my evaluation that supplementing one’s diet with good multivitamin is smart in today’s modern world. According to new a study published online in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, women who took a one-a-day supplement were 40 per cent less likely to suffer a heart attack than their peers who didn’t use multivitamins. A Nurses’ Health Study reported that regular multivitamin use was linked with a 24 per cent lower risk of heart disease. A study of more than one million healthy U.S. adults, demonstrated that multivitamins were associated with a 25 per cent lower risk of dying from heart disease. Another study included 33,933 Swedish women aged 49 to 83 years, the vast majority (93 per cent) having no history of heart disease. At 10 years of follow up, women who were free of heart disease upon enrolling in the study, taking a daily multivitamin reduced the risk of heart attack by 27 per cent. T
