General Product Questions
No, while our supplements do contain real food, they are crafted with a combination of key nutrients and real food from trusted farm partners.
The vitamins and minerals used in supplements are synthetic forms of the nutrients. They are paired with real food from our trusted partners. While food should always be first in getting the nutrients we need, it would be impossible to get the levels of vitamins and minerals delivered in our (and other) supplements if we were to simply include just the food.
Yes! When developing a supplement routine for optimal health and wellness, people often like to combine different supplements.
Since each person has individual health needs, we cannot advise about specific supplement combinations and advise you to consult with your healthcare practitioner.
MegaFood uses natural flavouring only when a product would otherwise be unpalatable, such as with multivitamin gummies. We work hard to ensure that the natural flavours we use are derived from vegetarian and Non-GMO sources and do not contain any of the "Big 9" Allergens: milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, crustacean shellfish, wheat, soy and sesame. While we are unable to provide a breakdown of all ingredients that may be present in our natural flavours as they are considered proprietary to the flavour ingredient manufacturers, we can work to rule out additional allergens on an as-needed basis.
We do not recommend to take any products beyond the expiration date.
All MegaFood products are either vegetarian or vegan which is clearly noted on the product label. Vegan supplements are made with no ingredients derived from animals and is suitable for those who follow a vegan diet. Our vegetarian supplements, which will include all of our multivitamins are made without ingredients of animal origin except for those with Vitamin D3 (lanolin from sheep wool), GTF Chromium (l-cysteine from duck feathers), and/or L-tyrosine (from duck feathers).
MegaFood supplements are made without 9 common food allergens milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, wheat, fish, shellfish and sesame. "Made Without 9 Food Allergens" is an internal MegaFood standard with a seal that appears on bottles along with our other certifications.
Yes we do! Like all MegaFood supplements, they are made with key nutrients and real food, and crafted without gluten, dairy & soy. Learn more about our kid’s multi here.
Multivitamins
Our MegaFood multivitamins contain vitamin D3. This inclusion makes them vegetarian, but not vegan because that ingredient comes from lanolin from sheep wool.
It’s important to get enough iron every day, but getting too much iron can do more harm than good. For that reason, it is generally not recommended for men to have iron in their multivitamin, unless specifically recommended by a healthcare practitioner. The same is true for women after menopause, since they are no longer losing iron on a monthly basis. For that reason, our entire collection of Men’s Multis, along with Women 55+ One Daily, do not contain iron.
MegaFood offers a range of gender and age specific multivitamins, including prenatal and postnatal Baby & Me 2 multivitamins, to meet your individual needs. If you’re looking for alternative (and tasty!) delivery forms, you’ll want to try our chew or gummy options. For a convenient once a day tablet, we offer Women’s, Women’s 40+ and Women’s 55+ One Daily Multivitamins as well as Men’s, Men’s 40+ and Men’s 55+ One Daily Multis.

Men's Health
MegaFood offers a variety of age specific multivitamins for men. One of the main differences in our Men’s Multis is that they do not contain iron, since it’s generally not recommended for men to take a multivitamin with iron, unless specifically recommended to do so by a healthcare practitioner.
