This multivitamin hits clinical doses where it counts most for your daily foundation. Your B-vitamins are well-dosed — 75mg **Thiamine**, 75mg **Vitamin B6** (partly as the active P5P form), and 680mcg **Folate** as methylfolate, which your body can use directly without conversion. **Vitamin D3** at 2,000 IU and **Selenium** at 200mcg both land squarely in their clinical ranges.
You're also getting 470mg **Vitamin C** and 67mg **Vitamin E** in its natural d-alpha form, plus extras like **Lutein** (5mg from marigold) for eye support. The formula uses multiple bioavailable forms across several nutrients — partly active P5P for B6, methylfolate for B9 — which helps your body absorb more of what's on the label.
The main gap for you is **Zinc** at just 2.5mg — only about 17% of the minimum clinical dose. **Magnesium** is 100mg in the oxide form, which is the least absorbable option. And the antioxidant add-ons like **Alpha Lipoic Acid** (25mg) and **Quercetin** (5mg) are dosed far too low to deliver the benefits they're studied for.
