As if there's not enough scare tactic health causes out there, GNC now sells unmarked packets of vitamins to be consumed like gushers or fruit snacks.  No mention of what's in this packet of pills, just that it's "everything you need".  f**king people...

Eh, it's the same idea as Centrum, except with more than one pill. Really the same as any multi-vitamin. I assume the ingredients are listed on the box. If they're not, then shame on them, that's bad. And they should be on the packets themselves, too. The idea doesn't bother me, though. There are different versions depending on your age and gender. Hey, if my pharmacist whipped up some of these little packets with my daily meds, I'd be thrilled.

On the other hand, the packaging might be kind of confusing - there's a reason we put child safety caps on stuff, after all (although hopefully consuming adult amounts of Vitamin E and Iron and such wouldn't have terrible effects)- and the way people take them in the ad is kind of ridiculous.

Yeah, it's not so much the product as much as the presentation.  Vitamins aren't so difficult to take, it seems silly that people need them packaged like gummi fruit snacks.
