What is your age? Generally you may want to take a multivitamin pill a day will be ok (Try Centrum).
Note that word Vitamin came from Vita: Vital and amin:amines. You need both water soluble and fat soluble vitamins and essential minerals. By having a variety of foods you will get them. Taking a lot of proteins will lead to a lot of nitrogen wastes from the digestion of protein intake. You make your liver & kidneys work more if you eat too much proteins.
