Essential for Men 18+

Daily foundational nutrition for men 18+.. The product uses an impressive array of premium, branded ingredients. This is a major plus for quality and bioavailability. However, the dosing is inconsistent. Several important nutrients like magnesium and choline are significantly underdosed. Iron is potentially too high for general male use.

7.5/10
VERY GOOD

Premium-sourced men's multi with excellent forms (Quatrefolic folate, Vitashine D3, K2VITAL, Ferrochel iron, Algarithm DHA). Folate at 1000mcg DFE is at the optimal ceiling. D3 at 2000 IU is adequate. K2 at 90mcg is near optimal. DHA at 350mg is a solid bonus. However, B12 at only 8mcg is far below the 250mcg minimum. Magnesium at 32mg is 8% of optimal. Iron at 18mg is unusual for a men's multi (most men don't need iron). Choline at 55mg is 10% of optimal. Premium forms, inconsistent doses.

What We Like

  • Uses many premium, branded ingredient forms for superior bioavailability.
  • Contains a good dose of vegan DHA from algae.
  • Includes well-dosed Vitamin D3, Folate, and K2.

Watch Out For

  • Several key ingredients like magnesium, choline, and vitamin E are significantly underdosed.
  • Iron dose is high for most men and could be problematic without a deficiency.
  • Biotin dose is unnecessarily high for a general multivitamin.
