Unsure about men.  ???  Should be enough in your multi tho.  I take it for my nails/hair because it's the one extra dosed vitamin in pre-natal vitamins and pregnant women's hair andnails grow like crazy.  :D

one major benefit is related to levels of homocysteine which is implicated in metabolic syndrome and host of other issues, it along with b12 are effective at reducing homocysteine caused by over methylation.

i would suggest just getting a b 50 complex as megadosing some of the B's can cause issues.
