I was actually in the vitamin business for many years. Both as an employee of one of the major health food brands, and a distributor for one of the best multi-level marketing companies who had a tremendous product. In both cases there was a lot of education on the subject of nutrition and vitamins. There are several very important things you have not mentioned about multivitamins or any vitamin. The first one is solubility. How likely are the vitamins going to be absorbed by your body? Many of the big ones on the market such as one a day, have very little solubility. The next one which most people don't even think about, is what's on the label actually in the product? If the company does not guarantee they will pass a lab assay that the amount on the label matches what's in the tablet, very many times it's nowhere near what you think you were buying. Lastly and perhaps most importantly, if the nutritional profile shows mostly 100% of the minimum daily requirement, it is not what you want. Why? Because it's just that , the MINIMUM requirement. Best example that everyone would be familiar with is the minimum daily requirement for vitamin C, which is just enough to make sure you don't come down with rickets. What you do want is a vitamin that is tailored not to the minimum but to the optimal dosage for whatever it's intended uses. if you are looking at the label and most of what you see is 100% MINIMUM daily requirements, don't waste your money.

Used garden of life multi for women and had a chronic uti for the few months using it. At 40 something, "at that time", never had one before, but their customer service was great and gave me my money back. Just because things are supposed to be healthy for you doesn't mean they won't react in certain people so everyone has to be careful. As always thank you for your very informative videos!

This video is perfect for those who are just starting on their health journey. It’s sooooo important to read ingredients on everything from food to vitamins to even your beauty and cleaning products. Less is best!!!!

As a trucker, I use the garden of life man vitamins honestly, when I first took it, I can feel the difference in my body. it really helps sustain what my body is lacking also energy wise keeps me rolling because you don't really eat healthy out there too much junk.

I'm 55 and my hearing isn't what it used to be but luckily not badenoughfor an aid (yet) and I really appreciate that most of your videos have captions, I really wish this one did, too

I feel like you did a very good job explaining because someone once told me if you do not get the good stuff just do nothing at all

Every time I go to the store first I go to your videos to decide what to buy for me and my family!! Thank you so much ❤

When it comes to advice on ingredients I ALWAYS go to Bobby’s videos. I have no shame! I’ll be in the aisle watching him lol

Thank you so much for this video. I would love to see a probiotic review and also a video on digestive enzymes.

Thank you so much for this video 🙏❤️, it’s very helpful. could you do a video about vitamins D please

I adore your channel because my husband & I research everything but we simply don’t have the time anymore (COVID-19 lockdown over). I love that I could just turn in for everything. God bless you ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Just ordered Garden of life. Thanks for the rundown.

Thanks Bobby, I'm grateful for all of the things you guys are doing to keep our family's healthy. Much love 🌹💖

I just recently realized that even though my toothpaste is fluoride-free, it has carrageenan in it. It's a "Tom's" brand. Can you do a video for the best hygiene products to buy (toothpaste, soap, shampoo/conditioner, lotion, etc)? Do you have any DIY toothpaste recommendations?

I would love a prenatal vitamin review! Idk if you have one already (couldn’t find it on your channel) love your channel, has helped me so much after only watching for 1 month!!

Ugh, I had been taking gummy vitamins and when I started eliminating sugar from my diet I switched to a One-A-Day tablet. I wish I had seen this video a month ago but now I know how to read the labels or will just bite the bullet and order the ones you reccomend. Thank you Bobby for educating those of us who are trying to improve our health.

I actually stopped taking vitamins in January and just used a good probiotic I’m on a hunt for a good woman’s vitamins I got tired of taking 7 pills a day thanks for this Bobby

Ordered my multi vitamin back in February from seeing one of your other videos. Ancient Nutrition. Almost done and gonna re order. Thank you for your videos.

Would really love to see a review on the probiotics and nutrient deficiency, that would be wonderful. Thank you for all your videos

Thank you so so much for your video... and comparing between Synergy vs Garden of Life ingredients.... Garden of life blows it right out of the park!!!! LOVE IT! Thank you! I am a woman over 50 and looking for healthier, natural vitamin and with your help- I feel I have found an excellent ONE! THANK YOU AGAIN!!! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY! :)

I watch every video! I’m a huge fan!!❤️ I can not Express how much knowledge I’ve learned from you over the past few months!!! I would love to see a probiotic review 🙏🏾🙏🏾

Thanks for the walkthrough. I wonder if there is any study that confirms how much of the vitamin ends up getting used vs flushed down the toilet.

Hey Boddy, thank you so much for all the great information you share. I would love for you to do an updated version of this video with best multivitamins and also collagen or just supplements in general. 👍💕💕💕

Garden of Life Women’s 50+ is great while I also get many nutrients from Garden of life organic protein “Fit”

Thanks Bobby, I'm currently taking the Ancient Nutrition multi that you reviewed several weeks ago. What I like about these is you only take 1 a day. So many vitamins have their serving size as 3-4 a day. If you are taking other supplements and meds it becomes quite a handful even if you break the dosage up through the day.

I am kind of proud of myself after watching your video.🙈. I've been taking Garden of life for years. Loved prenatal. Also, once I bought Mary Ruth for kids, also organic, but definitely pricey. Read the labels, people 👍

Bobby! I just went to buy The Garden of Life vitamins and see they were bought out by Nestle and are no longer organic. Did you know???

Thanks so much for this video! We take so many different vitamins that aren't as high quality as these. I looked carefully at all the ingredients in the Vitamin Code for men and women and they look great! The only thing I couldn't find was magnesium. Would we still have to buy those individually? My husband and I are on keto and doing great over 65 because of you!!

Hey Bobby I know you can't film in the stores now. Keep your receipts and take back what you don't want. You're not wrong if you do. Everything can be returned. Some stores are not allowing some returns because of Covid 19. Just hold on to your receipts and return them when the stores start to accept returns again. Thanks for the video. I'm throwing out my junk vitamins. It's a shame they even screw us over with vitamin ingredients. My son has been taking Vitamin Code for a while now.

I bought the Garden of Life Women’s Multivitamin off of Amazon and didn’t heed the advice of people’s reviews beforehand, thinking nothing would happen to me. I broke out in a horrible rash all over my arms just like everybody else did. Some people said it was from the niacin in the pills but I just stopped taking them altogether. It happened only after 2 days of taking them. Just a heads up to those who might be sensitive to that and considering purchasing!

Can you do an omega 3 review and the whole saturated fat LDL issue please?

i am hooked on your videos, now am very conscious of what goes in my body. thanks to you and your friends for all the goodwork.

Vitamins for seniors are different; requirements change as we age. And when getting groceries via pick-up, we can’t always get ‘the Best’; we have to make+do with what’s available. Also what we can afford. Can’t always be so picky, not during this virus time.

I've taken multi-vitamins for years. The latest one is the Melaleuca "Peak Performance" packs that have AM and PM packs. The best I've taken.

Vitamins have always been tricky because of the prices and if they actually worked. I did Nutrilite that Amway sells for a while and I did feel like it was working but I didn't want to pay $120 a month for their multivitamin and it was like twice a day dosages. Nature Made is what I use now and they are reasonably priced and I do feel them working

Thank-you. Helpful. Please mention that most of the "better brands" recommend 3-4 tablets a day vs. a one a day. This, of course means you will need to spend much more per month than many people can afford. What would be your take on only taking 1 or 2 a day to extend the product? Be well.

Glad to see you hit a million subs you definitely deserve more subs thank you for what you do I’ve learned so much 😁

Bobby, can you please do probiotics? I know you always talk about the ones in the refrigerator section being the only ones to buy and it would be helpful if you could explain and give your recommendations. Thanks!

Thank you! I am new around here and I cannot believe that you are on you tube for so long and I just found you, but it’s never to late! 😀 I am so exited that you exist! Thank you for your videos! Thank you for sharing! I am going to Costco soon to buy your book. I love to see Rose! She is a sweetheart! God bless you all! 🤗

Thank you for your time Bobby. I have someone close to me that is opposed to eating and it's affect her health. These vitamins might be what helps! Thanks again!!!

I've been waiting for this!! ❤️ 💕 Woohoo!! Thanks so much.

I’ll stick with Ancient Nutrition for all supplements including their probiotic. I’m surprised more time was not spent reviewing the ingredients of this brand vs. a quick mention.

Just a thought. I have never understood how a couple of small pills can take the place of the nutrition of a daily regimen of fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. Yes, vitamins can supplement but are not to replace. The vitamins and minerals in organic, non gmo whole foods are already in bioavailable form and are the best way to get their nutritional values. Common sense tells me you’d have to take half a bottle if not the whole bottle of vitamin pills to get any benefit at all to equal a daily diet of whole foods.

Which vitamin would you suggest for teens? Thanks!

Excellent presentation on vitamins...can you do a probiotic review? Thanks so much.

I bought my husband that Pure Synergy because I have the women's and love them, he said it gave him more energy, also GOL always a favorite too for everyone in the family 😊

Please a video on a good magnesium and also one to help support lower potassium please!!! 🙏🏼

Hi Bobby, what about the vitamins that contains Stearate? the additive that's primarily used in medication capsules. It's considered a “flow agent.” It prevents the individual ingredients in a capsule from sticking to each other, i've being doing some research and looks like its really bad at the long term. thank you love your channel

😆 laughing hearing you call sugar “the devil, my dad always called sugar “diablo” too!

I use the 40+ Women’s from Ancient Nutrition.

Petition for a review on "Naturelo", I've heard great things about this brand of multivitamins, it seems all its vitamins are in the correct form like Garden of Life and also very organic but the price is a little bit more affordable. So I would like to now your opinion. Thanks!

Hello, I have read that Monsanto, who owns Nestle, bought this company. Is this true and should I be weary of this product or is it still the gold standard?

Bobby can make a video for probiotics and gut health? Please and thank you for teaching everyone about label reading . Love all your grocery store videos too with Arthur. You guys are funny. I wanna go to the store with you. You make it so fun!!

I’ve been asking and asking for weeks for this video!!! 🥰🥳🎊

I watch your videos honestly you are a life saver God bless you and your family 🙏🏾

Here in the Philippines most people can't afford to buy vitamins no matter how vitals it is 😢

Love you guys!!! THANK YOU for this haul and review!! yeeaasss PROBIOTIC!! 👍👍👍👍

Hi Bobby! What about prenatal vitamins? Is there a prenatal Dessi took while she was pregnant with Rose?

I switched from one a day to Megafoods vitamins and turmeric, so much gentler on my stomach and my wrist and knee pain is almost nil. Now I also use silverfern multivitamin and probiotic, no stomach issues so far and I feel more level energy wise. I would love to see a probiotic review. Tfs.

I've been taking Mega Multi for Men 50+ from Piping Rock for a few years now. It's a fraction of the price of Garden of Life Vitamin Code Men, and just about as good.

can you do one on omega-3 and probiotics! I love all of the info on your channel :)

Mega Food baby and me 2 is the best prenatal/postnatal! And my kids love smarty pants (even though they do have the sugar ) I'd choose them over Flintstones any day and they use the good methylfolate. But I'll give the other kind a try. Thanks!

Unfortunately Garden of Life was bought out by Nestlé in 2017 and their supplements now contain synthetic vitamins. I was wondering about it when I was about to buy their raw b complex and saw that it said they got the Folate & B12 from S. Cerevisiae. Neither of those vitamins naturally occur in S. Cerevisiae.

Bobby you are awesome , i have learned so much from you , you are doing such a good work for our country.

I would also "Love" to see a Probiotic Review! Thanks!

Hi Bobby I watch each and every videos and thank you for making videos to help decide healthy lifestyle. Can you make video on 20 years girls. And on probiotics, fish oil, calcium, vitamin D.

I'm curious, if anyone knows, I've heard that multivitamins are really not the way to go due to how the vitamins interact with each other. Such as calcium and iron in the same tablet reduce the absorbency of both nutrients. Any thoughts/suggestions? I wonder if a more targeted approach is better, and of course eating a nutrient diverse diet (which is harder, but probably ideal).

I never knew that there is better or best vitamins for women but after watching your video I got to know what is good or the best vitamins for women. Thank you Bobby for these recommendations.

Hey Bobby please do one on shampoos and body washes

Thank you so much, I've been on a look out for kids vitamins and I was so close to buying "Smarty" but thanks to you I wint anymore. Is there a liquid vitamin for kids you recommend because the gummies goes very quickly with 2 kids & the capsules aren't going to work and yes to the probiotic video pls 👍👍

Thank you Bobby. Unfortunately, I just found out “Pure Synergy” brand is not FDA approved. Also, the vitamins for men and women bottles are exact the same except Zinc amount!!!! The other brand “Garden of Life” has changed company & packaging & quality. I wish there was a better multivitamin brand I could trust and buy.

He should do a video on Nature's Plus vitamins.

Mostly Multivitamin contain Gelatin which is not Halal specially centrum

Hi Bobby, I just saw another video where you mentioned you had changed your mind about Vitamin Code. What's has changed since you did this video? Is there something better? My husband and I are both over 60 and we're tired of taking 10 or so vitamins. I appreciate your help.

I prefer a multivitamin vitamin with much less vitamin A and would recommend the same for anyone also taking cod liver oil. Those two alone will put you into toxicity territory. I use Mega Foods Super Multi Organic along with Concentrace by trace minerals as well as a fulvic/humic blend and a potassium supplement and the cod liver oil as I said . The minerals and fulvic/humic blend are in liquid concentrated form and I add to my purified water to remineralize and raise my ph after using the zero water pitcher since that makes it very acidic by bringing water to 0 tds. Adding the potassium, fulvic/humic blend and Concentrace fixes that.

Thanks Bobby for such an informative video! Is fish oil an important vitamin to take for adults? What’s the advantage? Also, does citrate in a vitamin mean that it absorbs better? Which magnesium citrate brand is Bobby approved?? Thank you!

Please add teens next time🙏👍thanks for great information 👍

Thank you so much for providing such great in-depth information on all your video blogs. Would love to see information on pre-biotics and probiotics. I just recently had my gallbladder out but managed to keep it at bay for over 10 years... still struggle with fat digestion… even good fats are a challenge. Researching information becomes very overwhelming. Also...products are very pricey:(

Honestly my fear with the more natural vitamins they often contain herbs and other food type ingredients that may give an allergic reaction so I’m always a little worried about that.

I'm curious to know what Dr. Rhonda Patrick thinks about your review. She's a scientist.

Thank you Bobby, Art & all of the FlavCity fam on helping us get nutrition the right way ✊🏾

I would love to see a probiotic review. Also a glycemic review on fruits. Thanks. You are doing an excellent job informing and educating the public. You are highly recommended.

I am so happy I found you!!! I am not educated on any of anything with healthy eating & vitamins:( but you are so great 😀 I’m learning from you. I want to thank you so much for everything you do for us and educating us. Thank you very much. 🙏🙏🥰

I'd love to get your thoughts on Mary Ruth's line of vitamins

Now I’ll just order the multivitamin you recommend from Amazon, easy! Thank you 🙏🏻

I heard somewhere that the vitamins doses or so low in a multi that we are better off buying a specific vitamin instead! Like in the Centrum, you have 50 mg of magnesium. I think we need between 300mg-500mg a day?

I got to go shopping for vitamins for my son today. Thank you I wasn’t sure which one to get. I lost my faith in doctors long time ago.❤😂🤯🥰

Hi, I wanted to ask if you could please let me know if the brand NOW is good at all...🧐 I have consumed a lot of this brand 😬 I also have a son and do not want to give him any harmful vitamins. I would really appreciate it Thank you! 😌

Bobby you should check out Andrew Lessman. Now that's a good product he's at procaps labs HSN find them to buy them they are the best..

I use New Chapter Every Woman’s One Daily Multi - but I’ve been curious about the ones you’ve posted! Thanks for this video ✨

I have a question about the "Garden of Life Multivitamin for Men" you are aware that they still put pesticides in these supplements or at least the vegetables /foods so it isn't organic. Also Garden of life recently learned that the brand was sold in 2017. The new owner is Nestle, a company known for unhealthy snack products and unethical business practices. As for smarty pants According to the latest research study out of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Institute, consuming more than 55mcg of B12 may dramatically increase the risk of cancer. However, if I was to choose any vitamin , I would choose mega food. Do you have any input on this subject? Thank you

Bobby, please make update for best vitamins, thanks.

Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

The fda Need to crack down on these vitamin companies who’s claim that they’re non gmo This is false claims and false advertisement

Thank You for this video! I took your advice & ordered me the Woman’s Synergy VitaMinHerb Vitamins..there’s ALL good reviews on its website 👍🏼

Thank you. Hope to get your view point on CoQ10 and antioxidant supplements

my ten year old transitioned really well from gummies to Mega Food Once Daily. Way smaller and easier to swallow than some of the other healthy kids multivitamin options that resemble horse pills.

Thanks for the review,,would u tel us ur opionion about the mega men multi vitamin from GNC pls, no need to buy it just from the fact nutrition mentioned by them what do u think?? Thank u in advabce

Bobby is a great nutrition teacher .Thanks Bobby

Love your videos! Really helping me make better choices for my health as I’m getting older I need to be healthy & stay healthy for myself & my family!
