Multivitamins

Multivitamins are specifically designed to provide a variety of both essential and/or non-essential nutrients for the body.

The primary purpose of multi-vitamins is to allow individuals the option of taking only one or a few dietary supplements that provides many nutrients to the body. Multivitamin supplements can help to prevent both vitamin and mineral deficiencies, and are used by many to increase essential nutrients in the body to achieve additional health benefits.

While some one-a-day multivitamins contain high levels of vitamin A and vitamin D, many multivitamins do not. As the body does not require as many minerals as vitamins, most multivitamins.

Multi-vitamins usually contain at least 100%, if not more, of the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) of essential vitamins.
