When choosing a multivitamin it is important to remember that not all supplements are created equal.

These 5 tips should help you in choosing the best multivitamin for you:

1) Study the “USP” number on the label. This number will indicate the percentage of the product that will dissolve after one hour in your stomach, the higher the percentage the better, it varies from product to product.

2) Make sure that the iron in your product is either ferrous fumarate or ferrous sulfate because they are the most absorbable.

3) For best absorbtion take your supplement with meals, on an empty stomach it may cause nausea.

4) Make sure to take your multivitamin with a meal that contains a little fat. Vitamins A, D, K and E need a little fat to be effectivley absorbed by your body.

5) Make sure that your supplement only provide 100% of the RDA.

It is still better to get your vitamins from fresh food, since it remains the perfect nutrient but seeing that we don’t live in a perfect world it is wise to supplement your diet with a good multivitamin.
