Vitamins

[witkowsd]

Can anyone suggest a good vitamin to take. Are the paks worth buying or can you just take a multivitamin?

I tend to like the capsules better. i feel they would absorb better. so i use either sport fuel by twinlab (caps, and are an "athelete" formulation)....or mega men capsules by GNC where i work. i also use solgar VM75, a good tablet formula. basically just go with a good company like listed above.......at least you know its good stuff. packs usually contain much more than the usual multi. anything from dhea to womens/mens herbal combos. you just need to read whats in there and see if its something you want, but a basic multi should do the trick.

Multis

*** sorry, the keyboard ***

Multis are OK as long as you stick to good brands
you may a bit more but you will have what is on the label !

I've tried a lot of different multivitamins/minerals over the years (Twinlab, Mega-Man, The Bridge, Animal Paks, etc.), I've found that One Source from Wal-Mart is actually a pretty darn good vitamin. Cheap and works well. I just take one in the morning, one at night.

Is time released formula is more effective than regular when it comes to multi (regardless of dosage)?

Multivitamin

Pick a loosely packed capsule. Most tablets cannot be digested properly, so a capsule would be ideal.

Some formulas have too little of some vitamins and too much of others. I like Twinlabs Maxilife or GNC Megan Man.

agree

caps are better than tabs

and Twinlab, solgar, Solaray, Natrol are good brands

As far as quality goes, Country Life puts out an exceptionally good multi-vitamin but it is very pricy, but i believe that mega mens or the GNC Ultra Mega Gold is the best for your buck.. (remember buy one the second is half off). So anyways, thats my input. also, go during gold card week, buy 2 180 tablets, (not capsules, capsules you have to take twice as much, wont last you as long) and youll get the secopnd half off plus an additional 20% off with your gold card.. btw, does it sound like i am promoting GNC?

Hello sir, i buy multivitamins but i also buy single vitamins like C, E, and calcuim (is calcium a vitamin or mineral yes or no?). What i am wondering is if it matters who i buy my C and E from, or are they all the same. Thank you if anyone responds to this post of mine.
