Best Multivitamins

Choosing the right multivitamin can be daunting with the plethora of choices available today.Unfortunately the vast majority of multivitamins are not properly absorbed by the body. Lyle MacWilliam, a former Canadian Member of Parliament and Member of the Legislative Assembly for British Columbia recently served, as the authoritative command to Canada's federal Minister of Health, on the the Transition Team for the Office of Natural Health Products. He is also a Canadian biochemist, kinesiologist and the author of the Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements A Compendium of Products Available in the United States and Canada. Remember that multivitamins cannot substitute for a healthy diet. Eating a varied diet, choosing from a rainbow of fruits and vegetables. A multivitamin doesn't contain protein, fats or carbohydrates, nor does it contain fiber or the many antioxidants found in plant foods, all of which contribute to health. Use a multivitamin as insurance against missing a particular vitamin but not as a substitute for a healthy diet. MacWilliam surveyed over 1000 multivitamin/mineral products available in Canada and compares 504 products to the optimum daily vitamin recommendations given by globally renowned nutritional experts. MacWilliam drew an average from their recommendations to create a blended score.
