Random But Useful Nutrition Fact #29

If you take a multivitamin, Don't always go and buy the one that has 1000% daily values. Your body can't absorb that much. Bioavailability essentially means how efficient you body can absorb a nutrient. Also, stay away from brands like CENTRUM. First, Centrum multis are made by Pfizer, the pharamachuetical giant. They use terribly low quailty nutrients and are more chemicals than vitamins. Do yourself a favor a research a company that actually cares about your health, like Natural factors. They make a Whole Earth & Sea multi which is perhaps one of the best in my opinion. However, my honest opinion is if you want the most bioavailable multivitamins, eat the ones that mother Earth gave us. Fresh fruits and veggies. Nature's multivitamins.
