If I may jump in here. A good multi vitamin should be all you need, unless you know you are in need of a little more help. You pee vitamins out. The best way to get vitamins is through food.

I know I am a high enery endorphine junkie. Endorphines can be positive or negative. (positive for me, because I'm so vain) so the B family is essential. (supplemental)

D-3 is a nice helper in areas that do not get sunshine frequently and especially in the winter (i/e seasonal depression). People who use total sun block may want to consider taking a d-3 supplement, similar to how plants need water and sunshine for osmosis, so does the human body.

I take GNC's womens ultra mega, and have since the beginning of time. But I recently read an article that rated centrum and Targets' Up and Up brand very high. Huge difference in the price too. I'm considering changing.

Redundant, try to get your vitamins from food. One orange is a third of your vitamin c requirement. In fact, mandarin oranges (the smaller ones)
one of those is half. Please do not drink store bought juice. Loaded with sugar. Eat the fruit instead.
