I really don't know what to look for in a multi-vitamin other than it containing all the vitamins and minerals and the quanity. I have been taking a knockoff of GNC's Mega Men, but I have no idea how high a quality Mega Men is. Is it too compressed, is it a quality form of the nutrient. I also like the fact that Mega has herbs in it. If you answer this thread, don't just tell me what you use. Tell me why you use it and why it is better than Mega Men.

mega men is good i use it
but it is the not very good, but there are no very good multi vits
one way to see if its a quailty multi vit is to see what type of each vitamin it is, lots of vitamins have different types tat are more bioavailable for example zinc oxide and magnesium oxide are shiet compared to zing asparte and magnesium asparate, 5 times worse

Animal Pak.
Higher doses of all the vitamins and minerals (bodybuilders require more than sedentary individuals), all the amino acids (including BCAAs), desiccated liver, digestive enzymes, herbs, coenzymes, etc.
I've looked at animal pack and it is quite expensive. Right now, I take one Mega man, 1gm of C, 400 of E, 1 Myomax shake, and one Lean Mass Matrix. I am thinking about taking an extra Mega men, but I thought even that might be too much of a good thing, combined with my whole food and supplemental vitamins. Is the only thing that makes Animal Pack better in your mind the sheeer volume or is it something else? I thought it looked good because it separates some of the stuff out, hence you could take certain pills at cetain times for proper absorbtion.

Animal Pack is huge though, its like 10 or 20 pills per day. One of the better ones is natrol's "my favorite multivitamin", they get their minerals from best sources from what I heard. I doubt bb has it, so type it in google.
