Looking for a comprehensive daily multivitamin and mineral designed specifically for adults 50+—but without vitamin K? Vita-Lea Gold without Vitamin K (Item #20291) delivers 22 essentials, robust antioxidant support, and higher calcium and magnesium than many typical multis, all in two tablets per day. It’s vegetarian, gluten-free, nondairy, Star-K Kosher, and formulated without fillers or artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, or preservatives.

This “without K” variant is intentionally formulated for people who need to limit vitamin K intake—for example, individuals advised by their healthcare provider due to certain medications. It supports energy, immune health, brain function, heart health, bones, muscles, and eye health with a balanced profile of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

Who it’s for

Vita-Lea Gold without Vitamin K is made for adults 50+ who want a complete, daily multivitamin-mineral that excludes vitamin K. It’s a smart choice if your clinician recommends limiting vitamin K intake—such as when you’re on certain medications—while still wanting robust daily nutrition. Always consult your healthcare provider about supplements and medications.

It’s also a fit if you value:

• 100% DV or more of key vitamins A, C, D, E, plus all eight B vitamins
• Higher calcium and magnesium than many typical multis
• Vegetarian, gluten-free, nondairy, and Star-K Kosher certification
• No fillers or artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, or preservatives

What makes it different

Beyond the vitamin K–free profile, Vita-Lea Gold without Vitamin K is microcoated for immediate release in the stomach and is designed to enhance folic acid absorption. The brand cites a foundation of 7 clinical studies and positions the formula as offering superior absorption compared to standard formulations. You also get notable antioxidant support, including vitamins A, C, and E, plus N-acetylcysteine (NAC), alongside B vitamins for energy metabolism, and minerals for bone, muscle, heart, and immune support.
