Advanced Women's Formula Multi Vitamin Energy Plus
Futurebiotics
Overview
The supplement provides a broad spectrum of vitamins and minerals, many at or above daily recommended values, which can effectively address common nutritional deficiencies in women. The high doses of B vitamins are well-suited for supporting energy metabolism. However, the proprietary 'Energy Plus Blend' is significantly underdosed, making it unlikely that the individual herbal components like Dong Quai, American Ginseng, Chlorella, or others within this blend will confer their purported benefits at effective clinical dosages. Therefore, while it may act as a reliable multivitamin, its effectiveness as a specialized "Energy Plus" formula is questionable.
The Good
Comprehensive B-vitamin complex at high doses to support energy metabolism.
Contains a good range of essential vitamins and minerals.
Adequate doses of Vitamin C, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Folate, Vitamin B12, Biotin, Pantothenic Acid, Zinc, Selenium, and Chromium to prevent deficiencies.
The Bad
Proprietary 'Energy Plus Blend' (74mg total for 9 ingredients) is severely underdosed, likely rendering individual herbal components ineffective.
Lack of transparency for individual ingredient amounts within the proprietary blend makes assessment of benefits impossible.
Contains 'Folic Acid' instead of the more bioavailable 'Methylfolate', which can be an issue for individuals with MTHFR gene variations.
