I'm taking GNC Mega men, I thuoght I saw someone comment on this stating it wasn't worth the bottle it was packaged in, is this true or I am getting what I need from it? If not what multi-vitamin do you suggest?

Thanks as always people.

Well, I personally don't do GNC for many reasons. I am not going to say it is not worth the bottle it was packaged in, but they did and do have a rep for selling junk. I think they have tried to fix that a bit, but to me it is too little too late. I buy mine from the health food store, always have, even before I ever started working out. Some good brands are Solary, Source of Life(my fav), Natures Tree, and on and on. Besides a multi, I am NEVER without Vit. C 1000mg., Vit E 400 IU(d-alpha tocopheral, not dl-alpha), and B-Complex 100. These are essential, not only to the bodybuilder, but overall good health.

Thanks bb1, looks like I need to make a trip to the health store, GNC only has 300mg vitamin C & 100iu vitamin E(as natural d-alpha tocopheryl acetate) in its daily serving.

bb1, I am taking your advice on the GNC, to be honest with you everyone I've been in seems the same, the help acts as if they're working on a commission(are they?). Anyway, I've looked into source of life, I'm taking it thats one of the multi's you recommended, I was advised their are many different types though, can you be more specific with this one? Is one better than another for working out or is it just a matter of what I prefer? I will also be grabbing solary Vit. C 1000mg, Vit. E 400iu and B-complex while I'm there. Is there anything else I need to know before I go? As always thanks for your help bb1.
