What is the best multivitamin for men over 50?




From the age of 50, the needs for nutrients in human bodies begin to shift a bit. Therefore, there arises need for a supplement source of nutrients since food alone cannot produce enough. One can take multivitamin tablets as a dietary supplement which will help to meet the high demands for nutrients in the body. After a scientific research which showed that some of the multivitamin brands produced low quality products, Bestlife brand came up with multivitamin tablets to curb the problem.
Bestlife produces multivitamin tablets for adults which are formulated to provide a good quantity of nutrients.  This brand uses only the scientifically proven substances to be good for human consumption, as ingredients. It does not involve herbs or other unproven substances which are assumed to be rich in calcium and magnesium nutrients. It is well formulated to ensure;
1.      Brain health
It contains adequate quantity of vitamin B12 which ensures a good brain health. Bestlife multivitamin tablets use the crystalline form of vitamin B12 which is well absorbed in human bodies. They provide the vitamin in a simpler form which is easy to absorb since the aged face difficulties in obtaining it directly from foods.
2.      Heart health
Heart health is maintained through ensuring moderate body weight, normal blood pressure and ensuring that blood cholesterol does not exceed the normal level. It can also be maintained through having adequate body exercise and eating a healthy diet. However, the aged may be limited to very few body exercises since their bones continuously become fragile. Therefore, Bestlife multivitamin tablets ensure adequate content of Vitamin E and Magnesium nutrients for such people. Vitamin E is an antioxidant while Magnesium ensures good muscle functioning which includes the cardiac muscles of the heart. These nutrients work to ensure a good performance of the cardiovascular system.
3.       Antioxidant Use
This product has adequate amount of beta, selenium, carotene, vitamin E and C which help to disable the free radicals in human bodies. Though you may find that the level of selenium is lower in Bestlife product than in other brands, it does not mean that the product is of low quality. This was done to avoid the negative effects it has to the body when taken in high amounts.
4.      Adequate Folic acid
Folic acid helps to maintain normal blood cells in the body. Since it is a B vitamin, it can be obtained easily through taking of vegetables and fruits such as spinach and oranges. However, men above the age of 50 may have decreased performance in their digestive systems hence making them unable to absorb the required amount of the vitamin. This creates the need for taking the multivitamin tablets in order to supplement the quantity obtained from the foods. According to a scientific research, moderates amounts of vitamin B are more beneficial than when taken in large quantities. This is why Bestlife brand has ensured relatively lower amount of folic acid in the product than many other brands.
How to use Bestlife Multivitamin tablets
One is only supposed to take one tablet in a meal daily. This is because the tablet is used as a dietary supplement hence should not be taken in high amounts. In case of any need to use more, prescription should be done by a health care professional.
For the purpose of knowing this product better, I’ll brief you about its ingredients. Apart from the ones discussed, the product also contains magnesium stearate, food glaze, stearic acid microcrystalline cellulose, silica, and croscarmellose sodium. It does not contain any yeast, corn, milk, artificial colors or preservatives.[1]
