Do they do anything at all? I've tried them with "weak" people, but nothing happens. Is there a "good" time to give them?

I've tried them with weak people, sick people, healthy people -- can't find that they ever do anything. Maybe the game developers were trying to teach people to get their vitamins from organic foods. You know, basically saying that taking vitamins doesn't help, but eating healthy does.

Once, one of my peeps has the "Weak" Status and I gave her Vitamins. Her status then changed to "A bit weak".

If their statuses consistently show that they are weak, you might want to purchase a Doc's Consultation from the store, to see if they have any infection smile

Really frease? I've never noticed that, but too be completely honest, I've rarely had "weak" peeps in my games. So, maybe when I did, I simply didn't notice the difference. Or maybe it only works like that when your peep is barely into the "weak" status and when I did try using the vitamins, mine were "weaker" than when you used them. I'll have to keep trying when I see that status.

Like the antibacterial soap and the fruit, vitamins do raise health, but sometimes it doesn't make enough of a difference to be visible. Also, if they're actually sick, it doesn't seem to help; you have to heal them first. I have mostly only seen a difference with peeps who were neither sick nor weak. They just had a little bit missing off their health bar, and the vitamins helped fill it back up.

I just give them to pregnant peeps because it's realistic. LOL

Simsane: - You can also try the vitamins or anti-bacterial gel on your peeps with lower health bar. I noticed a slight increase in the health bar whenever I use it on them smile

Well, I tried it on a peep who already was "elated" and it made her move a whole lot faster. Not as fast as "hyper" but close!

Hi, I've experimented with the vitamins a bit more and yes, they do increase health as you say, frease. It's just less noticeable than the increase you get from giving them fruits. smile I've also notice the same with the antibacterial soap too.

ajuma, my peeps seem to go through spells where they are walking around at a nice pace (but not rushing around) and their status is elated and then suddenly, for no reason that I can find, they will start rushing around too -- even though their status still just says elated and I didn't give them anything. I assumed it was just a game thing that kind of goes in a cycle, but maybe not. hmmm...
