Fitness Magazine April 2009
What we liked:
How to choose a bottle of vitamins:
The highest-quality products tend to be store brands from major chains (Target, Wal-Mart, and Rite Aid) or big-name companies (One A Day, Vitamin World, Centrum, and Puritan's Pride). In addition, check the label for these three criteria: At least 600 IUs vitamin D. Don't settle for the 400 IUs in some multis. You need more of this supervitamin, which promotes strong bones, boosts immunity, regulates blood pressure and, in one study, was associated with a 50 percent lower risk of breast cancer. 18 milligrams iron. Young women need this amount to make up for what they lose every month through menstruation, yet many multis have no iron at all because men and older women can get too much. 400 micrograms folic acid. Anything less than this daily dose may not be enough to help prevent birth defects.
Suggested vitamins: One A Day Women's and GNC Women's Ultra Mega.
