MULTI vitamins are exactly what they sound like...
It is usually one or two pills taken daily that have multiple vitamins in one pill. No matter what kind of diet you are on you are not getting the recomended dosage of each vitamin out there (especially if you are on a low carb diet). Everyone should take a multi daily.

Here is some more info about the multi I take: http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=87483&catid=59626&trx=GFI-0-PLP&trxp1=59626&trxp2=87483&trxp3=1&trxp4=1&btrx=BUY-GFI-0-PLP

Sure it does man. If you haven't realized already that diet is the most important thing to a lifter then I suggest you keep reading until you do. A multivitamin allows you to get in a good supply of vitamins and minerals that your body can use to maximize growth.

Vitamins don't really help you build muscle so much as a deficiency can really harm your gains.
