Vitamins & Supplements

The unpleasant, expensive little pile of chemical vitamins and supplements that I take each day are artificial, do they even work? I already have a daily diet that includes ample fluids, fresh fruits, vegetables, and a wide variety of proteins and carbohydrates, plus treats; so do I really need vitamins and supplements? I have asked but I have gotten no credible answer, except confusion from friends, browbeatings from doctors, and my own uncertainties. So, for now I take them, but I do not like them.
