Unhappy Vitamin question

This question may have been answered before but I've been lookin' and not findin'...
Firstly, do I really need to supplement? Dr Atkins says that on his diet (WOE) one should receive all necessary nutrients. Huh?
I know he then says supplementation is to make up for previous dietary deficiencies but my diet wasn't previously lacking in anything, there was just too much of everything!
Anyways, partly because I'm feeling very low in energy, I bit the bullet and bought a multivitamin yesterday.
Alas! I read the label and it seemed to provide lots of goodies but it was only after I got home that I read the little zinger in fine print at the bottom.
"This product contains glucose and sucrose."
So my second question is: Is that teeny bit of sugar in each tablet acceptable (my SO can't see a prob) or should I stick to sugar free?
