Multivitamins May Protect Men Against Cancer
Multivitamins May Protect Men Against Cancer
Men taking the multivitamin were diagnosed with 8% fewer cancers overallMany Westerners are concerned that they may not be getting all the nutrients they need everyday for optimal health, which has made multivitamins a popular choice for many people. Study results on multivitamins often conflict, with some showing benefits, and others finding either no benefit or even potential harm. Now, much-anticipated results from a large, randomized, controlled trial of multivitamins have been released, and this one falls on the side of benefit, showing a modest but significant decrease in cancer occurrence for men who take a basic, daily multivitamin.The ideal study population
Researchers randomly selected 14,641 male physicians to receive a daily multivitamin-mineral supplement or placebo for approximately 11 years. The physicians were 50 years or older, and 9% had a previous history of cancer. Other factors, including age, height and weight, tobacco and alcohol use, diet, other medications, and family history of cancer were similar in the supplement and placebo groups.
The multivitamin provided around 100% of the daily value for most essential vitamins and minerals, with a few exceptions. It contained no iron, and for vitamins E and B12, the multivitamin provided significantly more than 100% of the daily value. For vitamin K, biotin, calcium, magnesium, and chromium, it provided significantly less than 100%. The supplement contained some additional nutrients, including lutein and lycopene.
Moderate multivitamin, less total cancer
Men taking the multivitamin were diagnosed with 8% fewer cancers overall than men in the placebo group.
There were no significant differences between the supplement and placebo groups in terms of specific cancer types, such as prostate and colorectal cancers. There were no significant differences in the risk of death due to cancer between the two groups.
Finding balance
The study multivitamin was similar to "common," moderate-dose products available in any supermarket or pharmacy. Given that past studies have suggested multivitamins may increase cancer risk, these findings are reassuring. However, according to lead study author Dr. J. Michael Gaziano, "It would be a big mistake for people to go out and take a multivitamin instead of quitting smoking or doing other things that we have a higher suspicion play a bigger role, like eating a good diet and getting exercise."
Keep this in mind as you consider our tips on creating your own cancer risk reduction plan:
- Be modest. Steer clear of mega-doses, and follow the American Cancer Society's advice: eat a balanced diet, and if you take a supplement, choose a balanced multivitamin that contains no more than 100% of the daily value of most nutrients.
- Seek the experts. A person's diet may get out of balance for a variety of reasons, such as illness, nutrient depletion or malabsorption caused by a drug, medical condition, food intolerance, or allergy. If this describes you, discuss your diet with your doctor or dietitian to identify specific nutrients that may be missing.
- Consider context. The study population was healthy, older males, most of whom don't smoke, and many of whom eat a balanced diet and exercise regularly. If you smoke, are obese, or have additional risk factors for cancer, heart disease, or other chronic disease, these findings may not apply to you.
- Get bang for your buck. Regardless of whether you take a multivitamin, you can never go wrong by adopting basic cancer prevention strategies: avoid tobacco, drink alcohol modestly or not at all, move regularly, eat plenty of vegetables and fruit, use sunscreen consistently, and maintain a healthy body weight.

It's the first to buy the Multi for my parents. I believe it would be useful for their health. But the size is too big to swallow. The smaller, the better.

Comments about GNC Ultra Mega® Green Women's:
I feel great taking this multi twice a day. I ran our of them and bought a bottle of something I thought was similar at the store, but I can definitely tell the difference in how I feel. The only problem is the size. I've never had a problem swallowing pills before I tried these.

Comments about GNC Ultra Mega® Green Women's:
I actually use the Women's 50 Plus (even though I'm only 31) because it doesn't contain iron (which makes my stomach upset). I can say I have way more energy throughout the day and no side affects! I would recommend this multi to my family and friends.
Pros
- Doesn't make me nauseous
- Healthy
- Unique
Cons
- Big
- Smells
- Twice a Day

Comments about GNC Ultra Mega® Green Women's:
This is the first multi vitamin that does not make me sick to my stomach. It have been talking these for 1 month now and I am much happier to take 2 of these horse pills (I do one in the morning and one at night), then just one of the "One a Day" types at big box stores. If you have a problem taking pills, these might be tough. DO NOT smell the inside of the bottle! Oh that smells bad...but I haven't had a problem with any after tastes or smelly breath or anything. This is for sure a permanent switch for me :)
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about GNC Ultra Mega® Green Women's:
Wanted a vitamin that didnt contain shellfish since I am allergic. It was hard to find one that didnt. Most vitamins that I have reviewed all had shellfish in them and GNC has made this product for people that cant take shellfish/fish products. This is what I found and It has helped meet my daily vitamin requirements.
