Vitamin Choices: Multi or Separate?

Diet and Nutrition
1

I have a question regarding vitamins.

What would the best choice be, a lifter directed multi vitamin like opti-men OR somthing like multi mineral caps (twin labs to be specific), along with a B-complex and a like 1000mg’s of vitamin C. A few have recommended the second choice to me (as long as I have a good diet)

Which would you chose?

I have to agree with Facko. To be honest, any OTC multi should be part of your regiment regardless. I like to take a multi and then add to what I think it is lacking, such as additional zinc, cayenne extract, grape seed extract, etc. If that is too technical for you, the Animal Pak or Animal Stak are great all in ones.

I would go with the B complex and vit. C…multis are a waste of money.

If I was to take a vitamin supplement, I would make damn sure it was an organic whole-foods based supplement. Most of the stuff you find on grocery shelves is sythenic crap made from petro-chemicals (Isnt that nice to know?) Two high quality ones I would recommend would be Alive Whole-Food energizer or Dr David Williams Daily Advantage.
