Powdered multivitamins sold in large canisters or tubs may not be the best delivery system. Not only can the powder become oxidized each time the tub is opened and exposed to air and light, but it's nearly impossible to guarantee which micronutrients you will be getting in each daily serving. This is because most vitamins are light and fluffy, whereas most minerals are dense and heavy. Over time, if stored in a large tub, the heavier micronutrients will naturally sink to the bottom, making it difficult to know which ones you're scooping into your daily multivitamin drink. [2019] - Mira Calton

Only reducing the incidence of late-stage disease is useful, and these are not necessarily the same thing due to the occurrence of early metastasis.

Finding and treating cancers that don’t need to be treated is not a useful strategy. [2020] - Jason Fung
