Vitamin E is higher than in the other Multi Daily formulas, at 100.5 mg AT (150 IU), and beta-carotene is 3000 mcg alongside 1500 mcg RAE of vitamin A palmitate.
B vitamins include methylcobalamin (249.6 mcg of B12), pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (39.9 mg of B6), niacin and niacinamide (24.9 mg each) and 600 mcg of folate as Quatrefolic (6S)-5-MTHF.

How it compares
Compared with Women's Multi Daily, the 50+ formula drops iron from 15 mg to a trace, raises vitamin E, beta-carotene and manganese, and swaps cranberry and L-carnitine for blueberry, grape seed and CoQ10. If you prefer a tablet, Pure Food Women's 50+ Multivitamin and Mineral is the same family in tablet form.
How to take it
Adults take 1 to 3 capsules daily with food, a few hours before or after other medications or natural health products. For prolonged use, consult a health care practitioner. The label asks you to check with a health care practitioner before use if you are on hormone replacement therapy, birth control medication or blood thinners, among other listed conditions, and says: "Stop use if hypersensitivity/allergy or a laxative effect occurs. Keep out of the reach of children." The full directions and cautions are under How to Take.
Who it suits
It suits women over 50 who want calcium, D3, K2 and boron without extra iron, in vegetarian, non-GMO capsules.
