Consuming a multivitamin as a nutritional supplement intake is recommended. However, what happens when a multivitamin consumed every day? This question which then provoke the investigators to find out.

Research results published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition mention of women who drank a multivitamin every day to prevent disease, it can increase the risk of developing breast cancer.

Researchers also found that middle-aged women and older who regularly consumed a multivitamin supplement, nearly 20 percent more likely to develop tumors. Even worse multivitamin supplements can trigger tumor growth by increasing the density of breast tissue which is known as a risk factor for cancer.

Research results also showed that supplements containing vitamins and minerals can increase breast tissue more than 5 percent. Researchers believe that folic acid may be found in a multivitamin pill can also be a factor, and according to research high-dose folic acid can enhance tumor growth.

In the UK, approximately 40,000 women annually diagnosed with breast cancer or equal to more than 100 days. Of that number, every woman in the country has one of the nine opportunities to develop the disease in some point in his life.
Yet researchers also suggested an increase of cancer cases caused by consumption not only multivitamintetapi there other factors that might support such an unhealthy lifestyle in women. They also warned that the findings need to be carried out extensive research to determine whether a multivitamin is safe or not to be consumed every day.

Science Information Manager Cancer Research UK, Kat Arney argues like previous research, a multivitamin may not be truly beneficial to health. "All the right nutrients to the body we can get from a healthy diet, rich in fiber from fruits and vegetables," he said as quoted from Dailymail.co.uk, recently.

Previously, researchers from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, has studied more than 35,000 women aged between 49 and 83 over 10 years. They note the people who regularly consume multivitamins, 19 percent more likely to develop breast tumors.

Even when researchers took into account a number of risk factors such as women who smoke, too much exercise or have a history of cancer, they found no significant association with pengonsumsian multivitamins.

Research results in the year 2007 recorded almost 300,000 people were found to consume supplements more than once a day, 32 percent more likely to develop aggressive prostate cancer. Later in the year, research at the University of Copenhagen found that high doses of vitamin A, vitamin E and beta-carotene seem to increase the chances of early death.

Responding to a number record the results of existing research, Gilbert Ross, Medical Director, American Council on Scinece and Health said that if individuals feel the need to consume more vitamins this research should be ignored. On the other hand, there are no recommendations to consume a multivitamin including the relevant experience problems in nutrition.
