Due to pollutants, stress, and environmental toxins, antioxidants are no longer a luxury, they are a must. That's is another individual question. However, the ranges I have given you are safe and after a certain amount they will be eliminated in the urine. We are all subjected to so many air born and water born toxins, chemicals, environmental estrogens, etc. that these nutrients will be put to good use in helping your body detoxify poisons. And so, I suggest an iron free multiple be taken.
Most individuals get their iron from multiple vitamins so iron free is the way to go.
Let's talk a little bit about heart health. My main concern with regard to heart health is that more than 350,000 men will die this year of a heart attack. One of the newly recognized factors for heart attack risk is homocystein, a potentially toxic amino acid that has been dramatically connected to heart attack. This substance can be eliminated in the body by taking vitamin B6, vitamin B12, and extra folic acid. I therefore suggest that most men supplement with a vitamin B formula on a daily basis.
