Q: What does timed-release mean on multivitamins?
A: Timed-release caplets are slowly broken down as they travel your digestive tract. This allows the vitamin to release it’s nutrients evenly throughout the course of its digestion. The benefit to you is that many vitamins are water soluble and are absorbed and wasted (through your urine) at the time you take it. In a timed-release situation it allows your body to pull what it needs from the multivitamin over a longer period of time as the pill is broken down.

Q: What are the consequences of lack of vitamins and minerals?
A: Not having enough vitamins and minerals in your diet may be the cause of fatigue, loss of bone density, hair loss, and increased predisposition to injuries and diseases. While many people tend to think they are getting enough vitamins and minerals from the foods they eat, the reality of the situation may be very different. Taking a daily multivitamin is your insurance policy - it fills in the blanks in your foundation of health!

Q: The taste of vitamins turns me off from taking them. Anything to help with this?
A: Yes! The coating on the caplet contains ethyl vanillin. Vanillin helps masks any unpleasant flavors that come from the proprietary blend, especially the B-vitamin complex.

Q: I’ve heard you really don't need to take a multivitamin. Do physicians recommend I take one?
A: Although there is no substitute for a healthy, well-balanced diet and adequate exercise, many adults are deficient in key vitamins, minerals, and nutrients. Many physicians and dietitians recommend a multivitamin supplement to help bridge nutritional gaps and support a healthy and strong immune system.
