- USP Verified for ingredients, potency and manufacturing
- About $0.11 per day

Our verdicts
Adults Multivitamin
Centrum Adults does the basics well: near-RDA doses of the nutrients Americans most often lack, including iron, iodine and folic acid, for about six cents a day. It has no third-party certification and uses inexpensive mineral forms and artificial colorants. For menstruating women and anyone on a budget, it remains a sensible, evidence-aligned choice.

Multi for Him
Nature Made Multi for Him is the best value in this category for most men: USP Verified, iron-free and dosed near the Daily Value for about 11 cents a day. It uses basic nutrient forms and contains gelatin, but as a straightforward nutritional insurance policy it is hard to beat.
