This is a good idea but you have to be carefull here. Many vitamins and minerals put into some foods, and even some multi-vitamin supplements, have inferior, or even biologicaly worthless forms of a given mineral(s) or vitamin(s).multivitamins (can be all covered by drinking a meal replacement drink or two)

Sure. I have a whole list of 'em that I've loaned out but two that I can think of off my head are magnesium oxide and zinc oxide. They are very commonly used. Throw 15mg/serving of zinc oxide into a product and you can put 100% RDA on the lable. However, it's near worthless in your body. the aspirates, alpha ketoglutarates, and "amino acid chelates" are usualy very good forms to see a given ingredient.quote:
