MultivitaminCentrum

Centrum Silver Adults 50+

Daily foundational multivitamin support for adults 50+.. Centrum Silver offers a broad spectrum of vitamins, with good doses of B vitamins and Vitamin D3 important for the 50+ demographic. However, it significantly underdoses crucial minerals like calcium and magnesium, and includes only token amounts of beneficial carotenoids like lutein and lycopene. It's a decent general multivitamin but not optimized for clinical benefits in all areas.

6.5/10
GOOD

Expanded Centrum formula for 50+ with broader coverage but same budget forms. B12 at 25mcg is better than base Centrum but still only 3% of optimal. Magnesium at 50mg remains at 13% optimal. D3 at 1000 IU is 25% of optimal. Lutein and lycopene are negligible at 0.25mg and 0.3mg (need 6mg+ and 6mg+). Broad coverage, cheap forms, key gaps for the 50+ population who need D, Mg, and B12 most.
