WHY WE STOCK IT
An iron-free daily multivitamin formulated to help meet the changing nutritional needs of women aged 55 and older. It provides essential vitamins and minerals that support energy metabolism, immune function, bone health and antioxidant protection.
 
The tablets can be taken at any time of day, even on an empty stomach, although taking them with food may be more comfortable for sensitive stomachs.
 
BEST FOR
Women aged 55 and older who want broad nutritional coverage without supplemental iron. The formula may be especially useful when appetite, food variety or nutrient intake is inconsistent.
 
A multivitamin helps fill dietary gaps but does not replace vegetables, fruit, protein, whole grains, healthy fats, exercise or medical care. It is not a treatment for fatigue, osteoporosis, thyroid disease, memory problems or menopausal symptoms.
 
HOW TO TAKE IT
Adults: Take 1 tablet daily with a beverage, or follow the directions on the physical Canadian label.
It may be taken at any time of day, including on an empty stomach. Take it with a meal if vitamins cause nausea or stomach discomfort.
 
At one tablet daily, 60 tablets provide a 60-day supply.
 
MEDICATION AND SAFETY CAUTIONS
Consult a healthcare professional before use if you have a medical condition, are undergoing cancer treatment or take prescription medications.
 
Ask our pharmacist before use if you take:
Warfarin or another anticoagulant
Levothyroxine or another thyroid medication
Levodopa
Certain antibiotics
Bisphosphonates for osteoporosis
Another multivitamin or high-dose vitamin or mineral supplement
 
Vitamin K can alter the effect of warfarin. Do not suddenly start, stop or change your intake without discussing it with the healthcare professional monitoring your anticoagulation.
 
Minerals can reduce the absorption of thyroid medication, certain antibiotics and osteoporosis medications. These products may require several hours of separation.
 
This multivitamin is iron-free and is not intended to correct iron deficiency. Women with fatigue, shortness of breath, hair loss or a history of low iron should have their iron status assessed rather than adding iron without testing.
 
Stop use if an allergic reaction occurs. Keep out of reach of children. Do not exceed the labelled dose unless directed by a healthcare professional.

MegaFood identifies its current Women’s 55+ formula as vegetarian, gluten-free, Non-GMO Project Verified and made without milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, wheat, fish, shellfish and sesame.
 
The product is therefore identified as soy-free. Customers with severe allergies should still check the physical bottle because ingredients and manufacturing statements can change.
