Choose carefully pills with added herbs or other nutrients. They typically do not include enough of each herb to offer therapeutic doses. If you stick with the basic multivitamin you will get more of what you need on a daily basis. You can add other supplements later based on your particular needs.

Which Vitamins Are Most Important?

Choose a pill that contains 100 percent of the daily value of Vitamin D, B1 (thiamin), B2 (riboflavin) B 3 (niacin), B6, B12 and folic acid. Avoid fillers, sugars, starch and gluten.

I Can't Take Iron - Is There A Formula For Me?

Vegetarian formulas like Eco Green do not contain iron. However pre-menopausal women need iron. Men and post- menopausal women don't need iron, iron can increase the risk of cardiovascular problems.

I Cannot Swallow Large Pills, What Should I Do?

Many manufacturers sell the chewable form of multivitamins. You can also choose a liquid multivitamin, but these are not as convenient as pills and many people skip taking their daily dose due to storage and time constraints. Keep a small supply of multivitamins in your car or purse and you will have them handy when you forget to take one in the morning.

Is The Expiration Date Important?

Always check the expiration date. This assures you that the manufacturer and distributor care enough to make sure the product remains active.

I See Mega Doses Advertised, Are These A Good Idea?

Avoid pills with mega doses of anything - unless your physician or nutritionist has prescribed them.

How Should I Store My Vitamins?

Multivitamins should be stored in a cool, dry place. The refrigerator is an excellent idea, but not necessary unless specifically stated on the label.

How Should I Take The Multivitamins?

Take the pill with food, which helps the body absorb fat-soluble nutrients. You can take it without food, but by eating something with your vitamins you will promote absorption and this will most likely keep you from developing an unpleasant feeling if vitamins tend to upset your stomach.
