Not true: Vtamins are vitamins. Although quality varies between manufacturers, the vitamins found in geritrol should not differ from other sources. The one issue with geritrol is that it contains iron, which is often not required in young people and can actually be harmful if over ingested. Always check iron levels prior to taking vitamins with iron supplements.
