Künstliche Vitamine sind ein Milliardengeschäft. Ob gesunde Menschen sie wirklich brauchen, ist umstritten. Sind Vitamine überdosiert, steigern sie in den schlimmsten Fällen das Krebsrisiko und können sogar lebensbedrohlich werden. In Entwicklungsländern oder bei bestimmten Mangelerscheinungen hingegen sind Vitamine dringend notwendig. (arte)

Englisch Interesting documentary full of information about vitamins. Unfortunately, more than half of the film consists of personal stories of different people about how large or small amounts of vitamins have affected their health. Each story could have been told in five sentences, not 10 minutes, which wasted time during which new and more important information could have been conveyed to the audience. The other sticking point is that only a quarter of the vitamins are discussed in detail in the film - not a bad thing, but a shame. The narrative of how vitamins evolved was interesting and the film explored the history of vitamins in depth. On a positive note, the musical interludes sweetened the film nicely. In the end, the film has an excellent theme, but the actual craft is a bit worse. ()
