Theralogix offers three different multivitamins to meet your nutrient needs at different life stages.
Essentia is a comprehensive multivitamin designed for women that provides methylated folate, vitamin C, B vitamins, 50 mg of choline, 50 mcg (2,000 IU) of vitamin D3, and 18 mg of iron, along with chelated minerals and other essential nutrients. Essentia is recommend for younger women or any adult who needs iron in their daily multivitamin.
Solo is a well-balanced multivitamin that provides methylated folate, vitamin C, B vitamins, 50 mg of choline, and 50 mcg (2,000 IU) of vitamin D3, along with chelated minerals and other essential nutrients. Solo does not contain iron, so it’s recommended for men, women 51+, or any adult who does not need iron in their daily multivitamin.
Companion does not contain iron, vitamin D, or vitamin K. It is recommended for adults already taking a supplement with adequate vitamin D, as well as those advised to limit vitamin K intake or who do not need supplemental iron.
