We found the best information at ConsumerLab.com, which does extensive laboratory testing of multivitamins for dosage accuracy, dissolvability and contaminants. One-A-Day Men's Health Formula is not tested, but One-A-Day Women's Health Formula is. The free section of Consumer Reports' coverage of multivitamins contains all the information most people need to know - that you can count on acceptable quality with brand-name or store-label multivitamins. User reviews are unscientific, but helpful for input on how easy it is to swallow the pill and how many people experience nausea.
Experts say most men can get all the iron they need from diet -- no more than nine milligrams per day - and reviews recommend One-A-Day Men's Health Formula multivitamins because they contain no iron. Studies are ongoing about the value of selenium and vitamin E in preventing prostate problems, and One-A-Day Men's Formula has 150 percent of the recommended Daily Value (DV) of both. Some user reviews note difficulty swallowing One-A-Day Men's Health Formula. The amount of iron is a major difference between men's and women's vitamins; premenopausal women lose iron during menstruation cycles, so for women, reviewers prefer Centrum from A to Zinc (*est. $13 for 180 tablets) which does contain iron. The major differences between vitamins for men under age 50 and older men are the levels of B12 and Vitamin K, the latter being helpful in avoiding hip fractures. If you're over 50, reviews recommend Centrum Silver (*est. $15 for 150 tablets).
