Do you know if the RDA amount is kept up-to-date with current research?

For those of us who want an insurance policy, have you got any recommendations on what multi-vitamins to aim for (a particular brand, maybe that you take?) Are all brands equal?

All brands are equal insofar as you are most likley better off if you avoid them all. For example: http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2013/07/the-vitami...

best insurance policy is to eat proper food. thats not snark, its just true. get a spreadsheet built in excel, and actually model a decent diet for ~7 days. its a very eye-opening experience. you can track calories, fat, carbs, protein and whatever else quite readily with online tools. While resturant food will be excluded (you would need basic recipe or key ingedient lists), soon enough you will understand just how much nutrients are in "real food".
