[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 114679, member: 15043"] Also, how do you guys know you're not getting enough nutrition? My insurance covers my labs 100%, so I test for certain vitamins and minerals. And not just serum tests, which are useless. I test the amounts in my RBC's, which is more accurate. I also test for b12 and ferritin. And so far between what I'm doing and diet, everything comes back good, some even on the higher end like zinc, copper and b12. Im just saying be careful. Between synthetic vitamins causing disregulation in the body, and some of the doses of vitamin and minerals in a multivitamin either being too high or too low and not being able to control each nutrient individually, it's just not a good solution if improving your health is your goal. But again, I've been a health freak since I was 14, and just realized all this recently. So I don't expect anyone to be at the same stage of their health journey as me and understand/ accept any of this. I know everyone is going to just do what they want and disregard the info above lol, so my second best advice would be to not skimp when it comes to a multivitamin. If you're going to get one, get a very high quality one, even if the price is a little up there. Also consider using a high quality Whole Foods greens supplement instead a multivitamin. A good example of one is green detox by thomas delauer. It's a bit pricey imo, but that dude knows his stuff, and the product is top quality. [/QUOTE]
