A convenient gummy multivitamin for men 50+ offering basic vitamin and mineral support. While easy to take, it falls short on zinc and provides only sub-therapeutic doses of age-specific nutrients like Lycopene and Lutein, and contains added sugars.
Quantity: 150, Dose: Lutein: 0
Alive! Men's 50+ Gummy Multivitamin provides a palatable and easy-to-take option for daily nutritional support, targeting men over 50. It includes key age-relevant nutrients such as Lycopene for prostate health and Lutein for eye health, along with a broad spectrum of essential vitamins and minerals like Vitamin D3, Vitamin C, and a full B-complex. While the gummy format enhances compliance, it necessitates a trade-off in terms of ingredient potency and adds carbohydrates/calories from sugars. The dosages of specialized ingredients like Lycopene and Lutein are significantly lower than what is often studied for therapeutic effects, and the zinc content is notably insufficient for men's daily needs.
- Convenient and palatable gummy form, which can improve adherence to a daily supplement routine.
- Includes essential vitamins (e.g., D3, C, B-complex) and minerals at generally adequate levels for daily maintenance.
- Contains age-specific nutrients like Lycopene and Lutein, beneficial for prostate and eye health in older men.
- Zinc content (3.6mg) is significantly below the recommended daily intake for men (11mg), limiting its efficacy for immune and reproductive health.
- Dosages of Lycopene (500mcg) and Lutein (300mcg) are too low to provide significant therapeutic benefits often associated with these compounds.
- The gummy format results in higher sugar/carbohydrate content (6g Total Carbohydrates, 25 Calories per serving), which may be unsuitable for some dietary preferences.
- The 'Orchard Fruits & Garden Veggies Powder Blend' (100mg) provides a negligible amount of whole-food nutrition and serves primarily as a marketing feature.
- Uses Sodium Selenate as the form of Selenium, which is less bioavailable compared to L-Selenomethionine.
- Individuals with diabetes or those monitoring carbohydrate intake should be mindful of the sugar content.
- Those seeking potent or therapeutic doses of specific nutrients for prostate or eye health may need to supplement with additional, higher-dose products.

Categories
Iodine 80.0
With 150mcg of Iodine as Potassium Iodide, this multivitamin meets the recommended daily intake for thyroid function, which is critical for metabolism, energy regulation, and overall hormonal balance. This is a well-dosed and appropriate form of Iodine.
Selenium 70.0
The product provides 110mcg of Selenium in the form of Sodium Selenate, which is an adequate daily dose for antioxidant support and thyroid health. Although L-Selenomethionine is often considered more bioavailable, the quantity supplied is effective for general supplementation.
Goals
General Health 70.0
The product provides a broad spectrum of vitamins and minerals crucial for maintaining general health, and its gummy format can enhance consistent daily intake. Despite this, the underdosing of key minerals like zinc and the symbolic 'whole food' blends mean it falls short of being an optimally comprehensive daily multivitamin.
Immunity 65.0
This multivitamin includes essential immune-supporting nutrients like Vitamin C, Vitamin D3, Iodine, and Selenium. However, the significantly low zinc content (3.6mg) is a critical weakness, as zinc plays a fundamental role in immune cell development and function, preventing it from offering comprehensive immune support.
Skin Health 65.0
With Vitamins A, C, E, Biotin, and a minimal amount of Zinc, this product offers foundational nutrients known to support skin integrity and appearance. While beneficial, the very low zinc level specifically limits its potential for significant impact on skin repair and overall dermal health.
