 Incredible Multivitamins! Jan 24, 2011
By Reticent Pragmatist
I've been using New Chapter Organics Every Man vitamins for over a year (first in the 3-a-day form, then in the 2-a-day one) to compensate for my admittedly spotty diet.
As stated, this brand is organic and can be taken on an empty stomach since it can be digested in the same way as food, but I would recommend taking it with a meal since vitamins are generally more effective this way.
As a vitamin for men, it contains no iron (men usually get enough iron through a basic diet), and it contains selenium (an element that's linked with anti-aging and anti-cancer effects).
The recommended amount of selenium is about 55mcg, however, and a daily dose is about 100mcg, so I tend not to take the full amount each day.
These are my vitamins of choice and Amazon's price is exceptional!

Best Vitamins Available Nov 21, 2010
By Henry Clay Turner
Best multi in the world. These are now in a 2 a day formula instead of the old 3 a day. Newchapter doesn't screw around so I assume the 2 a day format works as well as the 3 day since they are dropping the 3 a day. Two a day works better for me because I could never remember to take a vitamin with my lunch.
For those unfamiliar with the Newchapter line, you can take these on an empty stomach and not get sick/absorb the vitamins because they are food-based. These vitimins are pricey but they are worth it. Other vitamins you can't really absorb well you end up mainly just peeing out. Amazon has a good price on these especially if you subscribe and save.

 warning, these guys just sold out to proctor and gamble, April 4, 2012 Apr 06, 2012
By jamey russell
just a sharing of information. I have been taking these pills for a little while and really liked them. Then I found out they were recently sold to P&G, which is an awful company with a terrible track record of buying companies and changing their products with cheaper ingredients. This no longer is a safe supplement, imo.
Just another example of the corporate elite trying to control of food sources and health.

Best Multivitamin Ever! Oct 15, 2010
By Adventure Fan
New Chapter is my favorite herbal supplement company.
I've been taking Every Man for three weeks now. I wish I would have started sooner.
If you've done your research, or have been to the New Chapter website, you know what's in this and why it's excellent. I'm not going to get into the science. I just want to kick in my five stars.
Years ago I took generic Target one-a-day for men vitamins. These Every Man vitamins are the exact same size, except you take two per day, breakfast and dinner. They're normal size, which was my only hesitation when I considered purchasing these.
Do they work? Yes. I can feel the difference. And I don't think it's a placebo effect. These provide quality nutrition.
I can see myself taking these every day for years.
As always, based on individual lifestyle, unique body makeup, and personal health budget, your cost-benefit might vary.

Quite possibly the best in the world at what they do - period. Jan 08, 2012
By H. Trail

This is, in my opinion, the greatest multivitamin for a man under 40 to take. I've tried lots of vitamins out there to try and make my body healthier and to compensate for a very bad diet. In my studies to be healthier, I learned (and should have already known this) that I just need to start eating better and stop supplementing all the time! No matter how much you supplement, your body needs good nutrition in the form of food and not a chemically altered, chemically separated, chemically isolated or lab grown nutrient. The body needs food, organic if possible. That's where these vitamins come in, they ARE food. They don't replace food, they supplement it.
I started like most of you, taking Flintstone vitamins when I was a youngster. That moved into centrum and then centrum performance, then to some others that a pharmacist at a Rite Aid said were the best in the world (which they were not). As I got older and wiser and fatter, I wanted to do something about how crappy I had begun to feel. I learned that centrum was basically tabulated garbage. I started to take New Chapter Every Man (2 per day) and noticed a difference in my wellbeing. I didn't get energy or gain any supernatural abilities, but after 6 months of use, I could tell when I skipped a day.
Thinking these were for chumps, I tried Xtend-Life Total Balance Men's Premium (great by the way, but way too pricy) and because they cost so much, switched to Life Extension Mix. I tried the tablet version first, then the capsuled version. The Life Extension Mix were good, but I seemed to have that "too much of something" in my pee color, if you know what I'm talking about. After a little while longer, I started to have pain in my lower left back. I stopped taking all my supplements and the pain would go away (I drink more water that most folks and even increasing the amount of water I would drink wouldn't dilute the color of the urine one bit). After taking my supplements one at a time, I isolated the cause of the pain (and the neon pee), or trigger of it - the Life Extension Mix was causing my problem, so they had to go.
After going to the doctor (not because of the pain, but just as part of a regular check-up, though we did talk about it) I found out that too many vitamins, and ones with too high of a dosage can hurt us pretty bad. From kidney stones to really messing up your liver! So, the doc told me that based on my blood tests, I was not deficient in any "essential" vitamin and had a fairly good check-up. By this time, I had already given up LEM and started to make "green" smoothies... they are GREAT!
As I said, I had recently started "green" smoothies, and one of them is to blend my breakfast with some Green Vibrance + a little Rainbow Vibrance + a little Field of Greens all from Vibrant Health (they can all be had here on Amazon.com, but shop around, sometimes the version, or, release of what you get on amazon isn't the latest one. So be sure to ask the seller before you buy when it comes to Vibrant Health items on amazon.com) along with some other fruits and veggies that I either buy or grow in my own garden. That alone has most of the vitamins and minerals I need on a daily bases and in the best form possible - FOOD. So I've given up on the super-dosage of Life Extension Mix (you've gotta take anywhere from 9 to 14 of those suckers a day depending on if you choose tablets or capsules) and have returned to New Chapter for Men to round out my diet.
I don't have the brightly colored urine anymore (which can be caused from too many vitamins passing through your system) and I feel much better than when I was on the LEM. I've recommended these to my dad, brother, sisters, sister-in-law, wife, mother and father-in-law and everybody else I talk to about this stuff and they all love these vitamins (clearly, the ones for their gender/age group is what they take!). I also recommend them to you.
Guess the best part is they are food based (do some research on that though, it'll be worth your while) and come from a great company that makes their own stuff... also check out Berry Green and their brand of Fish Oil... they don't disappoint either. This contains Soy product, so if your sensitive to that, you might want to avoid it.
Bottom line; if you're looking to round out an otherwise healthy diet, or a moderately not-so-healthy diet, choose New Chapter Men and you won't be disappointed. However, if you're trying to compensate for a "snickers satisfies, I never even look at vegetables or fruits" kind of diet, you still won't go wrong with these vitamins, but they won't save you from the health-wreck your headed for. Nothing will. I'm just glad I realized that before it was too late for me!
Happy Shopping, May you find and keep good health and most of all, Stay Classy Amazon.com Shoppers!
