Spectro Energy Multivitamin
Solaray
Overview
The Spectro Energy Multivitamin provides a broad range of vitamins and minerals, but many of the ingredients are included at such low doses that it's unlikely to provide significant benefits beyond what a typical diet would offer. The presence of various proprietary blends makes it impossible to evaluate if certain ingredients are included at effective levels. While some of the key vitamins and minerals are present at good levels, many of the phytonutrients and additional compounds are likely underdosed and provide little to no benefit.
The Good
Provides a broad spectrum of vitamins and minerals
Includes some phytonutrients for added antioxidant potential
Offers a simple one-capsule daily solution for basic micronutrient supplementation.
The Bad
Multiple ingredients at ineffective doses
Risk of exceeding upper limits of some nutrients at high dosages.
Potential interactions with prescription medications.
