Default What vitamins are best?

Hi I am a newbie. I am ready, willing, and able to start low carb, but have not found out what the right vitamins to take. I want the basic essentials that isn't going to cost me a bunch. There are a lot of multi vitamins out there and supplements. Please help me. What are the essentials and an inexpensive brand to buy? Also, I heard potassium and magnesium were important, but some say double or triple the daily dose is this true? Thanks for your help

I like the Twin Lab Twice Daily without Iron.

I also like New Chapter brand but they are very expensive.

I buy the industrial sized Members Mark brand at Sam's. Used to buy prenatals "just in case" but have switched to the multi.
