  1. 14:30 No, not always. About a third of people are deficient in Vitamin D, and vitamin D is harder to get because you either need sun or a large supplement dose, because our bodies are terrible at absorbing it. You also don’t want to just take it in a multivitamin, you want to get it in oil capsules and ideally take it with a meal, which promotes absorption. I say this as someone who literally got blood tested and prescribed Vitamin D by my doctor, and this info came largely from him (with follow up literature review to double check). Point is, deficiencies are more common than you think. Also, you can be deficient even if you have enough in your diet. For example, you can deplete your thiamine if you have a lot of carbs in your diet, and that can contribute to fatigue symptom.

  2. 13:00 Be very careful here, what the study said is that there is no evidence as of yet. Not that vitamins do not help with these things. You need to consider that doing research to get quality evidence to prove that is really hard. You can’t perfectly control and monitor the diets of tens of thousands of people for their whole lives. And it’s also difficult to control for genetic conditions. Common misconception with science is that no evidence is the same as something being wrong
