Multivite
Douglas Laboratories
Overview
Douglas Laboratories Multivite provides a comprehensive array of vitamins and minerals, many of which are included at doses sufficient to meet or exceed daily reference values. However, some key minerals are significantly underdosed, diminishing the overall effectiveness for comprehensive support. The inclusion of some ingredients at notably high doses, such as Vitamin A, also warrants consideration.
The Good
Provides a broad spectrum of essential vitamins and minerals.
Many B vitamins and Vitamin C are adequately dosed for daily needs.
Manufactured by Douglas Laboratories, a well-regarded brand.
The Bad
Very high dose of Vitamin A (10,000 IU) which may pose toxicity risks with prolonged use or in combination with other sources.
Significantly underdosed key minerals including Magnesium (2 mg vs. 320-420 mg RDA), Zinc (2 mg vs. 8-11 mg RDA), and Potassium (8 mg vs. 2600-3400 mg AI).
Vitamin D3 dose (400 IU) is at the lower end of beneficial ranges; many individuals may require higher doses.
