Where we checked it: ocado.com ›

Why we picked it

Centrum Silver, the US sister product, was the multivitamin given in both Physicians’ Health Study II and the COSMOS trials, so this is the closest thing to a tested formula. It is cheap, widely stocked and gives broadly standard doses (around 100% of reference values) rather than megadoses.

Best for

Over-50s who want the closest UK match to the multivitamin type used in the big US trials

Not for

Anyone already taking a separate vitamin A or fish liver oil supplement without checking the total

The details that matter.

  • • Closest UK relative of the trial multivitamin
  • • Standard doses, not megadoses
  • • Under 20p a day
  • • Widely sold in supermarkets
