Don't be fooled by their dull appearances. It's a quality brand.

Pretty much
My opinion of NOW is right here:
\/ \/ \/ \/ \/ \/
They are using ergocalciferol (D2) instead of cholecalciferol (D3), which makes no sense considering D3 is 3-10x more effective, and dirt cheap.
They also use a single form of vitamin E (D-Alpha Tocopheryl Succinate)... and when taken solo can actually cause deficiencies in the gamma and delta tocopherols.
As I mentioned before, I don't like to use Iodine daily
Also, using saw palmetto isn't the best idea either. Why anyone wants to block formation of DHT is beyond me... unless they had some sort of medical condition.
Like most multis.... it's very unimpressive.

True, but its still on par with 98% of multis available here. There are only a couple multis that offer a complete E here at bb.com. At least coming from NOW you know that there's some quality behind it.
I wasnt directly speaking towards the adam product, moreso towards their complete line. They offer almost everything at great prices and with great quality.**Fav Sup Companies**
