I never tried a multi-pak as I know specifically what I want and prefer to buy all my vitamins separately.
One-a-day and other tablets often go through the system and never break down. So you get NOTHING from them. I give my daughter chewables and I buy only capsules for myself.
Iron deficiency is a problem for women, so I would try and find ferrous fumate iron derived from wheat. It is assimilated better than most forms and is the only iron that does not interfere with vit-e.Comment

John I beg to differ on part of what you said, you say the one a days do not break down, while that is true for some not all fall into this category.
When I forget and do not take mine I can tell, also I notice the pee color change when I am taking it. I read you can do a little test to check if your vitamins are breaking down and here it is
take whatever vitamin your taking, stick it is a ziploc bag with a couple oz's of vinegar, zip it up and carry it around in your pocket for 30 minutes. The vinegar is similar to your stomach acid.......if it dissolves mostly within 30 minutes it is dissolving inside you as well, if it is not dissolving or if just the outside is starting to dissolve it is basically junk
I did the test on my one a day's I get at walmart and believe it or not they passed the 30 minute test. I take one in the morning, plus one gram of vit C, and also 2 vit A (I have trouble with my eyes) and again I repeat this before bed, so I am actually taking a one a day, twice a day.....lol
I have used these for 3+ yrs and I believe them to work for me, try the test and report back how it works for you.Comment

LOL @ green pee.
I've got a women's once daily multivitamin by Cenovis. Not uber strong, but it's more to make sure I get everything I need in combination with my meals. I tend to have low iron, so I also take an iron supplement, and since ostepporosis runs in the family I take calcium/VitD supplements too. No multivitamin is going to be exactly what you need it to be, so I got the one that best suited my needs and added other stuff to make it work for meComment
