KIRKLAND SIGNATURE MATURE MULTI, $10.99/400 COUNT
Don’t be put off by the word “mature” on the label. This nononsense multi has no iron and reasonable amounts of all other needed nutrients, making it a good choice for most people.







KIRKLAND SIGNATURE DAILY MULTI, $11.69/500
Similar to the “mature” version but with 18 milligrams of iron, making it best for women with heavy menstrual periods.







AND ONE TO SKIP

KIRKLAND SIGNATURE PREMIUM PERFORMANCE, $11.79/300
It’s twice the price per vitamin of Kirkland’s other offerings and it’s also a good example of the kinds of multis that you may want to avoid. It has higher-than-necessary amounts of B vitamins, iron, vitamin E, and selenium. Plus, it has all kinds of extras you really don’t need, like ginkgo and ginseng, which probably won’t do anything for you, but could put you at risk of dangerous drug interactions if you’re taking antidepressants, blood thinners, or diabetes drugs.
