whats the best multivitamin for men/women

[BigNasty88]

Im trying to find out which is the best multivitamin for men/women. Ive been taking megamen-extreme athlete and used to take animal pak. My girlfriend takes "womens one a day" Theres gotta be something better than that.

NOW adam & eve are both good and fairly priced. Animal pak and met-rx packs are good too but more expensive. There are a lot of good multi's out there but most are way overpriced.
The most important thing for me, atleast, is that the minerals are in a non-oxide form, such as amino acid chelate, malate, aspartate etc. This way the body recognizes them as organic and they can make it to the muscle and actually be absorbed.
Also look for one with a pretty hefty dose of b6 and vitamin c...

I like animal pak the best, but like he said it's not cheap. I've been taking optimum nutrition's opti-men instead. You can find a months worth for $11-12.

If you are eating a well balanced diet with a lot of variety, you do not need a multivitamin. You obtain vitamins and minerals from the food you eat. Water soluble vitamins are quickly excreted if they are not used, and fat soluble vitamins can be easily overdosed if you are taking in too high amounts. Eat the real shit and save your money for other supplements.

Now, if you are restricting food sources or calories, then yes, you probably need a multi. However, just because the vitamin is marketed as being bad ass doesn't necessarily mean that your body will use it any better than the Kroger brand (my choice, since I can use the few extra bucks to buy Kroger Fish Oil and enzymes if I want.)

A supplement is a SUPPLEMENT.

I like a few from Orbit Nutrition, and tend to change them up here and there every couple months:

Vitamins and Minerals :: Sports Nutrition :: Vitamins - OrbitNutrition

the top two being my favorites, then the Opti women

Personally I like the animal pak by animal nutrition.Its a ton of pills, but you get everything you need. good stuff.B vitamins and vitamin C help to fight the increased stress levels associated with an active lifestyle in men.

animal pak is good but an old formula,
the Orange Triad Supports Optimal Digestion, Immune System, And Joint Health

A little bit off topic here, but I just read in the Sept 2010 (wierd it's not even september yet lol) M&F that fish oil can/will actually hinder your muscle growth! It contains cortisol which is a muscle eating hormone... Just thought I'd throw that out there next time considering taking fish oil. Wierd just like the milk thistle hinders gains thread right?

I appreciate all the help guys. I decided to stick with the Extreme Athlete by Mega Men. And you know, i been taking omega 3's every night before i go to bed. Im definitly gonna reconsider that. But, now i need to find a good multi vitamin for women. My ol lady wants to take something other than that damn one a day shit. Any recomendations?
