Twenty-seven years bring no deaths from vitamins but three million from pharmaceuticals. (NaturalNews) Despite mainstream medical establishments and media outlets portraying multivitamin supplements as worthless and oftentimes toxic, vitamins have led to 0 deaths over the past 27 years.

Sure, $3 billion might sound like a lot of money to most people. But GSK raked in roughly $43 billion in revenue just last year. "Who at Glaxo is going to jail as a part of this settlement?
