Ultimate Man
The Vitamin Shoppe
Overview
Ultimate Man provides a broad spectrum of vitamins and minerals at generally effective doses, addressing common micronutrient deficiencies. The inclusion of Vitamin D3, B vitamins, and Zinc is well-supported by research for their respective benefits. However, the efficacy of some proprietary blends (Tri-Scorb, Fruit & Veggie Blend, Amino Acid Blend) and specific ingredient amounts within them cannot be fully assessed due to undisclosed concentrations. Ingredients like Saw Palmetto, Lycopene, and Alpha Lipoic Acid are present at doses that may offer benefits, but their overall impact within a complex multivitamin formula can be limited.
The Good
Comprehensive vitamin and mineral profile supports broad nutritional needs.
High doses of B vitamins to support energy metabolism and nerve function.
Optimal dose of Vitamin D3 (1000 IU) for bone and immune health.
The Bad
Proprietary blends obscure dosages of specific fruit, vegetable, and amino acid components, limiting transparency and precise efficacy assessment.
The 'Active C' and 'Tri-Scorb Proprietary Blend' for Vitamin C complicate understanding the exact forms and amounts of vitamin C derivatives.
Some ingredients (e.g., Manganese, Molybdenum) while essential, are unlikely to provide significant additional benefit beyond a balanced diet.
