persagen, I'll elaborate slightly: vitamins have their place; e.g. selenium is important. Too much of anything, including antioxidants is bad.
I eat a pretty healthy diet (v. low to no processed foods; avoid fructose - HFCS, glucose-fructose - like the plague; EVOO & butter not margarine; home-made bread ...).
I take a daily multivitamin for micronutrients, as my diet is otherwise rigorous week-to-week.
High dose supplements, antioxidants likely bad; exception: Vit. D, important hormone; hard to overdose.
geographile, @persagen I take extra vitamin D and calcium on doctors' orders, and a daily multivitamin.
