ONE A DAY Proactive 65+ Multivitamin 150 Tablets

This review is for the Bayer One A Day Multivitamin proactive 65+ for men and women. I purchased these to give to my father-in-law. He is 72 years old and his wife passed away recently, so we had him move in with my husband and I so he’s not by himself. His wife always had his health in check so we’re trying to continue that for him now that she is no longer here. First, what makes this so great is its a formulated all in one vitamin with the key vitamins needed to help with aging once you hit 65 and up. This is great for people that already take medication and also for those that aren’t on much or any, because its one tablet, you take it in the morning and you’re done. No muss, no fuss! Easy to keep track of, and noone likes having to take a slew of pills every day, but you need the ingredients in this supplement so this all in one takes care of condensing that. The pill is pretty small, not like those huge “horse pills” some supplements seem to have, so that is good because I know my father in law can swallow these easily. These don’t have a bad or bitter taste, and these don’t make you burp up anything or taste any of the ingredients during the day after taking your dose. This is gluten free, and doesn’t contain any artificial flavors or sweeteners, and doesn’t have a bunch of fillers that help make up the pill either. This vitamin provides nutritional support in the areas that are difficult for your body to keep up with naturally or absorb from food once you hit 65 years old and up. This has Folic Acid, D and B vitamins, which help with cell health, converting your food into fuel, and in turn giving your body more energy and mood elevation. These are essential because at age 65 and up your body absorbs B vitamins much easier and better from supplements rather than from food. Vitamin D is harder to get from the sun as we age. Folic Acid and B vitamins aid with heart health and this will support healthy blood pressure. This also has 6 key antioxidants included essential for cell health, and Calcium, Magnesium, and Vitamin D of course for bone health. The recommended dosage is 2 pills a day, but we started off with one every morning for almost a week to make sure it could be gradually incorporated with his diet and routine. He is now taking the 2 a day dosage and has experienced no side effects. I know that it takes about 3 to 6 months to really start reaping the benefits of a supplement, and he’s only been taking this for about 2 months, but I can already see the effects yielding positive results. On my end I can see his mood is elevated and happier, and he has a pep in his step. I know these are doing well for him and making him feel better because I don’t even have to remind him to take these daily, he wants to take them! So that’s a 10/10 for me in my book 🙂 Also, I wanted to add, when he went to his doctor appointment for a regular checkup, all his tests and health are much doing better than 3 months ago and the only thing that has changed is he started taking this vitamin.

There are a lot of over 50 vitamins but very few for those of us over 65. I appreciate this, and all the ingredients are designed for old guys like me. And the price is way better than comparable products. I have high potassium so I’m especially glad it isn’t included. Everything about this is great, and a trusted brand. By the way, I’ve found that, once I put some vitamins in my 2-week daily pill container, they start to decompose. I’ve never had that problem with One-a-Day vitamins.

This product is a welcome addition for those of us moving into the best times of a retired semi active lifestyle. It has had a very positive effect for my metabolism. If you really don’t eat right (like most of us!) You may consider this as an option?
