What kind of vitamins should I be taking?

Well About a month or two ago I started an exercise routine and i've been able to stick with it but my problem is I rarely eat fruits or vegetables so is there a certain type of vitamin that would help out with that? My dad said just to get multi vitamins but i thought i'd get a second opinion

Does long hair rob your body of vitamins and minerals?

My dad and grandma keep insisting that it does. I disagree, AFAIK the hair outside of your scalp is dead, and therefore not using up vitamins. The hair generating inside of your scalp grows and uses vitamins regardless of length.
I can't find anything about it online, figured I might as well be the first to ask it.

I want to help my Dad lower his high blood pressure. Where can I find recipes that will help him lower his bp?

I really want to help my Dad lower his blood pressure. I know that he needs to avoid excess salt or anything that contains high salt content but he's a single Dad now and he and my brother live alone and since he doesn't ever have time to cook, he makes unhealthy food choices that are quick to prepare (mostly heat and eat stuff). These are usually really high sodium too which isn't helping his condition so I want to help them out by preparing some healthy meals for them. Especially for helping my Dad get his blood pressure to a safe range. Can anyone please give me some recipes or a link that contains recipes that are healthy for someone who has high blood pressure? I really wanna help him / them.
