STAY HEALTHY, STAY AHEAD

EVERYTHING BUILDS ON THIS

Athletes walk a fine line between peak performance illness. The intense physical demands of sport creates unique nutritional requirements that must be met to stay healthy, recover day after day, and prevent chronic deficiencies or illnesses that can derail training or even wipe out an entire season.

MultiV delivers essential vitamins, minerals, and clinically proven ingredients to support athletes during high-intensity, multi-hour training sessions, meeting the specific nutritional needs for optimal performance and recovery.

PREMIUM IMMUNE PROTECTION

IMPROVE DAILY.

Nutrition often focuses on the bioavailability of carbs, nutrients, and electrolytes, but none of that matters if the athlete isn’t available to compete – and the harder you train, the more taxed your immune system is. MultiV 2.0 contains a new, extremely potent dose of highly refined yeast beta glucan, which reinforces the immune system. Less risk of upper respiratory tract symptoms commonly associated with training and racing. Less risk during constant exposure while traveling to events.

IMPROVES DIGESTION

MultiV helps your gut adapt to higher carb intakes in two ways. First, by powering GI energy metabolism to process more carbs. Second, by supporting general digestive health for overwhelmed GI tracts. With MultiV, you get all the essential calories you need without wreaking havoc on your already-taxed gut.

MultiV is engineered to help you utilize the high amount of carbs you need during training and racing without GI distress.

HELPS YOU STAY LEAN

BURN FAT, NOT MUSCLE.

The reimagined MultiV now contains ChromeMax®, a patented chromium complex that's been shown in several clinical studies to help you burn body fat while maintaining lean muscle*.

INCREASES OXYGEN CARRYING CAPACITY

CATALYZE PERFORMANCE.

Red blood cells are the vehicles for oxygen transportation. Oxygen is the catalyst for muscles firing. The new MultiV is engineered to support red blood cell formation by including micronutrients like folate, vitamin B12, Ferrochel® iron, and choline – the latest essential micronutrient and a newcomer to the MultiV line. 

When iron levels are low, less oxygen is delivered to working muscles and aerobic capacity declines significantly.  

IMPROVES PERFORMANCE

RESEARCH SHOWS 50-70% OF ENDURANCE ATHLETES ARE IRON DEFICIENT.

MultiV contains a clinically effective does of Ferrochel® iron to support your body’s oxygen transportation and utilization infrastructure, reducing fatigue and boosting performance. This safe and highly bioavailable form guarantees maximal absorption without any risk of toxicity.

ICREASES ENERGY, DELAYS FATIGUE

STRONGER FOR LONGER.

Choline promotes and regulates metabolism for increased energy and endurance while delaying the onset of fatigue during training. Research shows that choline blood levels decrease during endurance exercise; supplementation maintains optimal levels to support peak performance.

IMPROVES BONE & JOINT HEALTH

SUPPORT WHAT SUPPORTS YOU.

MultiV delivers a clinically effective dose of vitamin D and vitamin K2 to maintain bone, joint and blood vessel health over time. The new MultiV’s vitamin K form, MK7, is more potent and better studied than the previous MultiV’s MK4. For vitamin K2, we only use K2VITAL®, which protects the vitamin in a carrier that prevents MultiV’s calcium and magnesium from degrading it.

REDUCES MUSCLE DAMAGE, IMPROVES RECOVERY

UNRIVALED ANTIOXIDANT PROTECTION.

To neutralize free radicals in athlete’s bodies, the new MultiV formula includes Spectra®, a proprietary extract that provides the balanced, full-spectrum antioxidant protection needed for peak performance. Spectra® is a blended suite of food antioxidants, so it helps reduce the fallout of exercise without negatively impacting recovery and training adaptation, which is a risk with high doses of single antioxidants.

A COMPREHENSIVE ENDURANCE SYSTEM

MultiV is part of a complementary system of full-body support and nutrition designed to work together to help you become a better athlete. Take the guesswork and confusion out of endurance performance.

Q&A

Q:  How should I take MultiV? 
A:  Always (always!) with a meal to aid absorption and digestion.

Q:  Should I take MultiV every day?  
A:  Yes, for maximum benefits you should take MultiV every single day of the year. Doing so helps ensure you keep a steady intake of vitamins and minerals that fills micronutrient gaps that are commonly associated with endurance training and that can negatively impact general health and exercise performance.

Q:  I weigh 125 lbs. Should I still take three tablets?
A:  It may take longer to replenish your status of any missing vitamins or minerals if you take fewer than three MultiV tablets per day. The ingredients in MultiV are dosed and portioned according to effective amounts in clinical research; taking a lower dosage will limit those effects.

Q:  Do I need to take all three tablets together or can I split it up?
A:  It doesn’t matter if you have a full serving all at once or if you break it up throughout the day. In fact, taking the tablets individually with separate meals is optimal; however, taking them all at once eliminates those “oops” days where you forget a dose. 

Q:  Is there an exercise-performance or energy-boost benefit to taking MulitV before training/racing?
A:  No. The trick is to take MultiV daily, as consistent use helps maximize the throughput of energy pathways that feed muscular performance. Those pathways are not easy to boost from a single, acute intake of vitamin/mineral catalysts. It’s a tightly controlled network of pathways and micronutrient incorporation into your network is done slowly and carefully. This rationale also applies to the additional non-MVM ingredients.

Q:  Is it better to take MultiV in the morning or at night?
A:  While it doesn’t really matter when you take MultiV, taking MultiV in the morning means that your body is more active, speeding digestion and assimilation.

Q:  Can I take MultiV and Optygen at the same time?
A:  Yes! In fact, Optygen should work even better if you replenish any missing vitamins and minerals with MultiV. Adaptogens work with pathways in your body which are reliant on adequate status of most vitamins and minerals for normal function.

Q:  If I take MultiV, should I also take HALO and Optygen?
A:  All First Endurance products are engineered to work together as a complementary system. HALO, Optygen/OptygenHP, and MultiV are designed for daily use to maintain whole-body peak performance. Other products – PreRace, EFS/EFS-PRO, Liquid Shot, and Ultragen – are designed for periodic use before, during, or after exercise. Piqued your interest?

Q: Is MultiV vegan friendly?
A: Yes.

Q:  Why does MultiV contain non-traditional MVM nutrients likeGinkgo biloba extract, green tea, beta-glucan, antioxidant blend, boron, vitamin K2 MK7?
A:  MultiV is an endurance athlete’s multi, not a bottle of cartoon character gummies. Human clinical studies support those non-traditional ingredients as specifically addressing certain needs of athletes that other multis ignore. Those include improvements to oxygen capacity, exercise performance, cardiovascular performance, fat oxidation, antioxidant capacity, hormonal support, and immune support. Those additional ingredients are also at their best when high-potency MVMs keep metabolic pathways replete.

Q:  How long does it take to start noticing the benefits of MultV?
A:  If you’re deficient in an essential vitamin or mineral like iron? A few days. The more general benefits improve over several weeks. The real test is the regressive depletion you’ll hit when you stop taking MultiV, depending on your body’s unique disposition.

Q:  Why did you use a different folate instead of folic acid?
A:  We’re glad you asked! There are several good reasons for folate that are being ignored by most multis. Folic acid itself is inactive, not made by human bodies, and not found in foods. The folate we use (MTHF or 5-MethylTetraHydroFolate) is the most critical form of folate in all living cells, and folic acid needs to be converted to MTHF during digestion for your body to use it. Normally, this process is adequate, but a majority of humans have one or more genetic variations that slow that conversion. These people get less efficacy from folic acid but have normal folate function when using MTHF in foods and supplements. Also, excess folic acid (called unmetabolized folate or UMF) accumulates in humans and interferes with folate functions, resulting in functional folate deficiencies, which can meddle with gene expression control (needed for training adaptations and responses to exercise), causing decreased long-term health. Taking too much folic acid can reduce effective folate levels? That’s 100% DV of irony.
 
Q:  Compared to the previous MultiV, why did biotin increase 100% DV to 1,000% DV?
A:  Actually, the amount of biotin per serving is exactly the same as previous MultiV – 300mcg. The change is only in the percentage, and it resulted from US government committees drastically lowering the DV of biotin from 300mcg to 30mcg. The new value reflects an average daily intake, not necessarily a daily need. This makes general biotin intakes look much better – now most people are around 100% Daily Value from their diets, instead of 30% or less. The regulatory thinking is there’s no change in overall health with the decreased DV. We disagree. We chose to continue with 300mcg biotin to maximize biotin function, especially in persons with common genetic variations that reduce biotin-dependent gene expression and particular metabolic pathways. This is an easily rectifiable impediment to health and performance, so we’re opting to maintain the previous levels. But there is good news: Your competition may be taking a multi that lowered its biotin to the recommended DV.

Q: Is MultiV gluten-free?
A: Yes.
