Need some multi recommendations

Luca Brasi · 10-12-2008, 01:53 AM

Anyone recommend any good brands/products for multi vitamins ?
The one i am taking tastes and smells so bad , i gag when i take it . Then need to have a meal to take the taste out of my mouth . It smells so bad i can even smell it hours later when i take a piss and even then almost makes me gag. Would prefer a capsule multi as well so i cant taste it at all.

Centrum seems to be the only one that has tested consistently over the years.

Just don't get Vitamin Shoppe anyhting. In one of their womens multi's they found lead. (Yes, lead)

Tried 2 that were equally as bad , tried Animal Pak first = horrible .... then tried ones called Blackmores ..even worse then animal pak by a long way .
Hopefully Centrum is a cap and not a tab so i cant taste it on the way down atleast .

J. Adams · 10-12-2008, 06:16 PM

It's a tab.

I have them in front of me (High Potency Centrum)

Sort of light Pink tabs.

J. Adams · 10-12-2008, 06:17 PM

They don't taste horrible though. They are just quite big.
