people with more health problems (and especially older people) tend to take more vitamins.

Confounding things further but in the opposite direction - people who are health conscious (and wealthier) take more vitamins too.

My approach regarding this topic is that I plan on going and doing/funding research on this kind of thing myself and are actively re-educating myself and acquiring resources in order to do so. In the mean time I'm just not going to take excessive doses of fat soluble vitamins - because that'd just be a stupid idea in the first place!

I'd be extremely grateful if you do investigate this.
