A Multi With Real Mineral Amounts, and No Iron
I don't hand out multivitamins often. When I do, I want one that carries meaningful amounts of the minerals people tend to run short on, magnesium and calcium in forms the body handles well, rather than a token sprinkle. MultiThera 1 Capsule Formula from SFI Health (formerly Klaire Labs) is the one I reach for when a multi makes sense. It is iron-free, uses activated folate and methyl B12, and includes a full set of chelated trace minerals.
What SFI Health says about it
