AP - About a third of U.S. children and teens take vitamins, even though most of those taking the pills are healthy, active kids who probably don’t need them, a new study suggests. Youngsters who could benefit the most from vitamins — kids in fair or poor health with the worst eating habits — were the least likely to take them, researchers reported.
