Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Well, I was really excited about this product when I first purchased it. Seemed like a great, affordable men's multivitamin specifically designed for men who work out a lot. The 3 pills a day is a little annoying, but given all the great things in here, it was a minor annoyance. Then, I stumbled across the report on multivitamins at ConsumerLab.com. Here is a quote from the report:
"Opti-Men contained 1.62 mcg of lead per daily serving. Although this amount is
unlikely to be harmful in itself, lead exposure should be avoided. The
State of California requires warning labels on supplements that
provide more than 0.5 mcg of lead per day."
To be perfectly honest, I am not that worried about a little lead exposure, but when a product contains it, it makes me think that the manufacturer simply isn't using that much care and precision in making their product. Because multivitamins are not regulated by the FDA, it is pretty easy for anyone to throw together a multivitamin - until I see that ON is serious about carefully and precisely manufacturing their multivitamin, I am going to stick with someone else. My personal choice right now is GNC Mega Men. Similar to OptiMen, but it passed all ConsumerLab tests, and I have been unable to find anything negative about it.
Also, I personally think that with multivitamins, it is better to stick with more of a big brand name. The bigger the company, the more likely they are to receive testing and scrutiny by independent sources, such as ConsumerLabs. Smaller manufacturers are simply not going to receive that much attention. Again, because multivitamins aren't regulated by the FDA, I think taking them warrants caution.
