Multivitamins for Older Adults: how to choose
When shopping for multivitamins for older adults, start by comparing products on their actual label details rather than choosing on name or pack design alone. Products in this category can vary considerably in strength, nutrient form and delivery format. Depending on the product, you may find tablets, capsules, softgels, liquids, sprays or combination formulas.
Useful points to compare include:
- Nutrient form: Check the specific form used and the amount supplied per serving.
- Format: Choose a format that suits your routine, from capsules and tablets to liquids or sprays.
- Serving details: Compare the suggested serving size, pack size and number of servings.
