A Widely Preferred Multiple Formula, Iron-Free
The amounts and ratios of nutrients used in this MultiThera® formula are based on a long history of clinical use and updated using the newest research findings. The 1:1 calcium to magnesium ratio, high potencies of vitamins E, C, D3, and B-complex, bioactive forms of folate and vitamin B12, extra pantothenic acid for adrenal support, and full complement of trace elements distinguish this formula from ordinary multiple vitamins.
This iron-free formula option is most suitable for the majority of individuals. Supplemental iron is unnecessary for most adult men and women and may be potentially harmful, as excessive amounts have been associated with heart disease, arthritis, and cellular damage. Copper is included because of its importance for SOD antioxidant enzyme activity and to maintain a healthy balance with zinc. This concentrated formula is designed to fit into 6 tablets daily. A clear, water-soluble cellulose coating protects the stability of the nutritional ingredients and makes the tablets easy to swallow. Each batch is tested using USP protocols to ensure proper tablet disintegration to help maximize nutrient bioavailability. MultiThera® 1 is especially recommended for men, postmenopausal women, and women with light or normal menstrual flow who may not need supplemental iron.

Abundant scientific and clinical literature indicates that dietary supplements have an important role to play in promoting health. The need for supplements is ever more apparent given frequent nutritional inadequacies of the Standard American Diet, where low consumption of fruits and vegetables is paired with energy-dense, “empty calorie” processed foods. A growing proportion of the general public now embraces dietary supplements as an integral part of a daily health program. National surveys report that approximately one-half of adult Americans use supplements on a daily basis, and of these, multivitamin and mineral supplements are the most commonly used.
In addition to encouraging healthier food choices, supplementation is often recommended when an individual’s dietary nutrient intake is inadequate or unbalanced. Nutrient intake at the official Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA) may be adequate to help individuals achieve a more complete and balanced intake of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements. However, higher amounts in excess of the RDAs (though well below tolerable upper limits) may be needed to meet individual requirements that vary with age, level of physical activity, stress, genetic factors, medication usage, environmental exposures, or health status. Increased, safe intake of vitamins and minerals may assist
optimal functioning of interrelated enzyme systems, cellular energy metabolism, hormonal regulation, and detoxification pathways critical to maintaining health.
