New Chapter Every Man II Multivitamin for Men Summed Up

New Chapter's multiple certifications (organic, GMO-free, kosher, vegetarian) and its status as a B Corporation set it apart from most of the competition in the men's multivitamin industry. Although the company does not specify its sourcing, its transparency in other respects gives us confidence in the content of this supplement. We were a little concerned about the high quantity of Vitamin A in this product; men who get a lot of Vitamin A in their diet may want to consider a different product to avoid the adverse health effects that may come from an excess. Perhaps because of the care New Chapter takes to use high-quality ingredients, its Every Man II formulation is one of the more expensive multivitamins for men on the market.
