    I personally dont spend that much on a multi I go and get the active one daily but in my opinion I would go with Mega Mens

    I think they are two different things.
    You'll find more Amino profiles in the Animal Pak.
    The Mega Man is a multi with a few tweaks for good measure.
    I've taken both and I would recommend taking both together for a nice base if you're new to supplements.
    Couple these with some Whey protein and a good diet - you should see some decent gains.

    If you take both together wouldnt you worry about the Vit A content seeing how too much is toxic to your body?

    I didn't see Vitamin A as a large portion in the Animal Pak when I looked at the profile. I have always thought the body absorbed a lot more of this than we all think. From what I've read you could eat 3 oz. of chicken and drink a glass of carrot juice and you're all ready at 400% + of daily intake.

    Here is where I found the Vitamin A info

    I just didn't think you get the BCAA's from the regular Mega-Men

    I've just used an "average" multi when I've taken Animal Pak and it's worked out decent for me.
