Title: Gaspari Anavite...who uses it?
Post by: Fallsview on April 24, 2012, 07:40:58 AM
Was looking for a multi-vit and started reading about this one.  I currently take these:

LEF Fish Oil

LEF Mix

LEF Resveratrol

LEF Blueberry Extract

LEF Q10

LEF D3

Isopure Whey Protein Low Carb.

Anyone here take Anavite?  Notice anything different?

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin)                     20.00 mg      1176%     
Niacin (as niacinamide & inositol hexanicotinate)       50.00 mg      250%     
Vitamin B6 (as Pyridoxine HCl)          30.00 mg      1500%     
Folic Acid                                        200.00 mg      50%     
Vitamin B12 (as methylcobalamin)       250.00 mcg      4167%     
Biotin                                              300.00 mcg      100%     
Pantothenic Acid (d-ca-pantothenate)       50.00 mg      500%     
Calcium (as Calcium Phosphate)       40.00 mg      4%     
Iodine (as Kelp)                               75.00 mcg      50%     
Magnesium (as magnesium chelate)       100.00 mg      25%     
Zinc (as Zinc Chelate)                       15.00 mg      100%     
Selenium (as l-se-methylselenocysteine)       35.00 mcg      50%     
Copper (as Copper Chelate)                1.00 mg      50%

Carnipure (L-Carnitine L-Tartrate)        1000.00 mg       **


i would suggest that the absorption rate is probably very low (Gaspari is known for using low grade ingredients to save money for marketing)... beyond that this is a crazy combination of minerals to supply in one supplement... probably very innefective... the beta alanine dose is too low to be useful and the "Carnipure" is probably 99% L-Tartrate (useless)...

waste of money
