Once Daily High Energy Iron Free Multivitamin
Solaray
Overview
This multivitamin provides a comprehensive blend of vitamins and minerals, but many are at doses unlikely to have a significant impact. Some of the B-vitamins are dosed at high levels, while most minerals are at low levels and are likely ineffective. The inclusion of a 'Whole Food And Herb Base' does not provide transparent or evidence-based benefit. Therefore the effectiveness of this multivitamin is questionable, and most nutrients are likely obtained via a healthy daily diet.
The Good
Provides a wide range of vitamins and some minerals.
Timed-release formula may offer prolonged nutrient absorption.
Iron-free formula is suitable for those who don't require iron supplementation.
The Bad
Inclusion of oxide forms of some minerals with poor bioavailability.
Low doses of minerals such as Calcium, Magnesium, Selenium, Copper, Manganese, and Chromium, and Potassium providing minimal benefit.
Some vitamin doses are excessively high without clear benefits.
