While I agree with the need for supplements, as we're typically not getting enough of the essential minerals we need from our foods and for whatever reason, I think flaxseed oil can be beneficial to anyone, not just vegetarians, for the omega-3 fatty acids. Or, use flax seed or ground flax seed in your baking or on your cereals.
Regardless, I think we could all benefit more from learning to eat real food, taking a good supplement if need be. Were we to take the myriad of supplements suggested by one "expert" or another, the number would be ridiculous.
JMHO - a single multivitamin should be sufficient, for most, I think.
