Men's Multivitamin

America's most popular multivitamin. America's cheapest ingredient forms. 50mg magnesium oxide absorbs about 2mg. Zinc oxide, synthetic vitamin E, cyanocobalamin. Doctors recommend it because they don't study supplement bioavailability.

6.0/10
GOOD

Budget men's multi using the cheapest forms available. Magnesium oxide (4% absorption), zinc oxide (poorly absorbed), synthetic dl-alpha vitamin E, cyanocobalamin B12. Vitamin D3 at 1000 IU is only 25% optimal. Key minerals like magnesium at 50mg (13% of optimal) are functionally useless. Covers RDAs on paper but real-world absorption tells a different story.
