Multivitamin

Key points

• A multivitamin does not replace diet — it fills the micronutrient gaps that diet misses
• Most valuable for older adults, urban dwellers, and those with restricted diets
• Look for methylated B vitamins (methylfolate, methylcobalamin) for better bioavailability
• Centrum Adults 50+ is specifically formulated for older adult nutritional needs — different from generic formulas
• Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) accumulate — do not exceed the stated dose
