AL's Formula (Basic Nutrients for Men Over 40) 240 Vegetarian Capsules

AL's Formula was created by Thorne Research to be a comprehensive vitamin and mineral supplement for men over 40. It is one of the few vitamin and mineral supplements on the market that was designed specifically to meet the nutritional needs of the mature male. As such, it includes additional nutrients and botanicals to help support heart and prostate health.

As you have come to expect from Thorne Research, AL’s Formula (Basic Nutrients for Men over 40) does not contain any hidden preservatives or pre-diluted ingredients. AL’s Formula also does not contain any magnesium stearate or stearic acid, which have been known to inhibit absorption of certain vitamins and minerals. It does, however, provide the active forms of folic acid (L-5-methyl-tetrahydrofolota and folinic acid) in a balanced 1:1 ratio.

The Thorne Research Difference

If you look at any manufacturer’s product line, you’ll find a multiple vitamin and mineral supplement at its cornerstone. The researchers at Thorne Research believe that this is where each individual should start their supplementation regimen. One should not look to supplement with additional vitamins and minerals if their basic needs are not being met. As with all of their products, Thorne Research only uses the purest and most bioavailable raw materials to produce AL’s Formula (Basic Nutrients for Men over 40). This supplement will never include unnecessary additives or preservatives, so every persons outcome will be optimized.

Why a Good Multiple Vitamin and Mineral Supplement is Essential

There are many things that nutritional experts disagree on; however, most can agree that the average American does not get enough of the right balance of vitamins and minerals from their diet. This is because so few Americans actually eat the five daily servings of healthful fruits and vegetables that are recommended. That is exactly why supplementation with a good multiple vitamin and mineral formulation is essential.

The Journal of the American Medical Association is somewhat known for lack of support of dietary supplements; but even this organization has finally agreed that everyone should be taking a multiple vitamin and mineral supplement. One may think of it as “dietary insurance” that can take hold in the event that they don’t get enough of one vitamin or mineral from their daily food intake. If they do get enough nutrition from food, even greater health benefits can be realized by taking a multi.

AL’s Formula was designed by Thorne Research to be a complete and comprehensive multiple vitamin and mineral formula. It was designed specifically to support the metabolic functions of a mature mane. This basic multiple vitamin and mineral formulation contains saw palmetto extract, additional zinc, and the amino acids, glycine, glutamic acid and alanine to help support the nutritional needs of the prostate.

AL’s Formula also contains pure betaine and hawthorne extract to help support cardiovascular function. It does not contain iron because iron is not only unnecessary for most men, but it could also be harmful.

Just like you’ve come to expect from Thorne Research’s multiple vitamin and mineral supplements, AL’s formula contains the active forms of vitamins B2, B6, B12 and folic acid.
