Multivitamin Review

The document discusses a review of prenatal multivitamins. It lists the various vitamins and minerals contained in the multivitamin, including vitamins A, C, D, and E, as well as niacin, folic acid, calcium, iron and zinc. The multivitamin also contains soy. The reviewer takes the prenatal multivitamin daily for its health benefits, both when pregnant and not pregnant, since it provides needed nutrients and the reviewer does not always have time for regular meals. Too much of certain vitamins can reach toxic levels, so it is important to understand recommended dosages before taking supplements.

Multivitamin Review 2

Multivitamin Review
Reading the vitamin label on a bottle oI some prenatal multivitamins and there is a
variety vitamins. These vitamins include Vitamin A 4000 IU, Vitamin C 120 mg, Vitamin D
400 IU, Vitamin E 30 IU, Niacin 20 mg, Folic Acid, Calcium, Iron, and Zinc. The label reads
that it also contains soy. The label in our readings indicate that a person should have an intake oI
up to 90 mg per day oI Vitamin C and my multivitamin has well above that amount oI Vitamin
C.
My beneIit to taking this multivitamin is to help my body inside Iunction better. I take
prenatal multivitamins whether or not I am in any stages oI pregnancy because it has all the
vitamins I would need. The main reason why I do take a multivitamin is because I do not have
time to eat every meal in the day, so taking the vitamin I Ieel does not raise my daily intake oI
certain vitamins to a toxic level but helps me reach the right levels. Consuming too much oI
certain vitamins and minerals can have a person reach near toxic levels which can cause
problems with bodily Iunctions. BeIore taking any vitamins a person should have an
understanding and knowledge oI the recommended dosages.
