It actually looks decent. Hows absorption? I know some pressed tabs multi's don't disolve very well.

I ALWAYS take my multi...if I don't take anything else. It makes me feel better and more energized. I have used GNC Mega Men, Optimum Opti-Men, Now Foods ADAM, Beverly Super Pak, Universal Animal Pak and MHP Activites. IMO - Activites beats them all (albeit not by much - close seconds is Opti-Men & ADAM). It's a nice blend that you can actually "feel."

I take American Health, more than a multi...one of the best multis I've used! That or the Super Nutrition, Opti Pack...I'd stop taking everything else before I stopped my multi.

I've used Gnc Mega-men sport and I was using ON Opti-Men right now but stopped.

I find that the days I take it; im tired, the day just drags on, then the very next day if I do not take it Im full of energy.

I want to take a multi, but i don't want that problem any longer ....


yes i use multi, not more energy but less sick less often, and brand is colossal labs vitamonster....

I just use NOW's vit-min. My diet is pretty well rounded, so a MV is not really all that necessary for me.. I just chose a cheap but still decent one - 180 caps for $20, lasts 6 months.

I use one a day womens (or the generic equivalent sometimes). But the calcium content in that is crap! at only 45% DV. I'm thinking of switching to one a day weight smart. Someone told me it helped them. And to answer your last Q, neither. Been taking them for 15 yrs.

I always take a solid multivitamin/multi-mineral as I think they are vital given the lack of their presents (or lesser contents) in our fruits and vegetables grown in an ever decreasing nutrient rich soil and dowsed in pesticides.
Right now I'm using NOW Vit-Min100 and would say any multi is better than not taking one even if it wal-mart brand or some sh!t. Look into a high potency B-complex if your having energy problems would be my advice as that seems to help me.

I was at Walmart the other day, and even though the pressed equate brand MAY have been upsetting my stomach, the label clearly reads, "Oil- and Water-soluble Vitamins with Minerals Tablets USP" also it says, "Made to U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP) quality, purity and potency standards. Laboratory tested to dissolve within 60 minutes."
So, maybe Equate isn't as bad as the rap it's taken? Who knows?
