OT: nutritional supplements

I was wondering about people's advice on taking vitamins and/or other nutritional or herbal supplements. For years I've been taking Centrum, or rather, the CVS or Target private label knock-off which is the exact same stuff but a bit cheaper. I used to take 400 I.U. of Vitamin E (all natural, mixed tocopherol gel tablets), but in 2004 read about studies that said that not only did it not do any good, but actually caused increased likelihood of mortality!
Also, I've never taken herbal supplements before. Some people have mentioned to me that they take gingko biloba to improve memory and echinea to prevent colds. My brother takes some type of garlic tablet which supposedly helps reduce blood pressure.
If it makes a difference, I'm mid-thirties male in pretty good health. Family history does have some tendency towards high cholesterol and blood pressure. I've heard about this Co-Q-10 or something that supposedly helps out with heart healthiness as well....
Thanks in advance for your comments/advice.
