Multivitamin + Focus
GNC
Overview
This product is a multivitamin and mineral supplement with some added compounds aimed at enhancing focus and brain function. The vitamin and mineral content is generally comprehensive, although some ingredients are at lower levels, while other ingredients are available at very high levels. The addition of caffeine, methylliberine and other compounds is aimed at focus enhancement, but this is not a well-researched combination and the efficacy is questionable. Overall, it provides a solid base of micronutrients, but the 'focus' benefit is uncertain.

Contains several B vitamins at high doses.
Includes Vitamin D at a 200% of daily value.
The Bad
Potential for interactions with medications due to multiple ingredients.
Proprietary blend of focus-enhancing ingredients makes precise dosing unclear.
