I've been taking the GNC Ultra Mega with Iron Vitamins for Women for years - they're wonderful!! They really help me to wake up by providing me with a pick-me-up first thing in the morning. I also have to say that they provide all the essential nutrients that women need. Did you know that there have been studies done that show that people who take Selenium don't get cancer? I'll have to hunt down this study, but I definitely look for Selenium, Iron, and Folic Acid in all my vitamins - very important for women.
I even took the GNC Prenatal Vitamins when I was pregnant last year. I topped out at 255 during my pregnancy, but remarkably, I didn't have any sugar problems or anemia for the entire pregnancy. I was pretty anemic during my first pregnancy, so I was surprised to discover that it wasn't a problem the second time around - ecspecially considering I wa 12 years older this last time around. I definitely attribute that to the GNC vitamins. Of course you can buy these vitamins at GNC stores - they often have buy 1 get 1 free promotions on these. Since I live overseas, then I just buy them at drugstore.com
I really can't recommend these vitamins enough - kudos to GNC !
