Men's Complete Multivitamin
iwi
Overview
The iwi Men's Complete Multivitamin provides a broad spectrum of essential vitamins and minerals, with a notable inclusion of algae-based omega fatty acids. While many vitamins (C, D3, E, B6, Folate) are at or above recommended daily values, several key minerals (Magnesium, Zinc, Selenium, Copper, Manganese, Chromium) are significantly underdosed, diminishing their potential effectiveness. The omega-3 content (280mg DHA+EPA) is a good starting point for general health but may be insufficient for therapeutic benefits. The effectiveness of fenugreek for testosterone support is at the lower end of common research doses, and the presence of chlorophyll is likely too low to provide significant benefits.
The Good
Vegan-friendly omega-3 source from algae oil, a sustainable alternative to fish oil.
Comprehensive blend of vitamins and minerals in a single softgel.
Contains a good dose of Vitamin D3 (800IU) and Vitamin C (111% DV).
The Bad
Several key minerals (Magnesium, Zinc, Selenium, Copper, Manganese, Chromium) are significantly underdosed for optimal benefit.
Omega-3 fatty acid (DHA+EPA) content (280mg) is relatively low for significant therapeutic effects in cardiovascular or cognitive health.
Lack of transparency regarding the specific forms of some vitamins (e.g., Vitamin A) and minerals.
Is it for you?
Best For: Men seeking a multivitamin with plant-based omega-3s, those looking for enhanced omega-3 absorption
