MyVitamins A-Z vs DR.VEGAN Daily Multivitamin.
Two of the most-bought daily multivitamins in the UK. One is the supermarket-cheap A-Z; the other is the clean-label vegan pick. Which actually delivers, and which is the cheaper-looking false economy.
Methylated B12 and methylfolate are absorbed by everyone, including the 40% UK MTHFR carriers
Vitamin K2 alongside D3 redirects calcium to bones, not arteries
No magnesium oxide, no folic acid, no titanium dioxide - clean-label by default

Best absorption
Methylated B vitamins, chelated minerals and K2 with D3 - the forms with the strongest absorption evidence. The 40% of UK adults who carry the MTHFR variant cannot efficiently use folic acid in cheaper multis.

Sentiment patterns from public reviews.
We read Amazon UK reviews, Trustpilot threads, and editorial coverage. We don't invent quotes.
- Reviewers consistently flag value as the standout. Buyers running it as a baseline daily for under 10p per day report being happy with the price-to-coverage ratio.
- Wide availability through MyProtein discount cycles. Buyers who stalk codes can land it at substantial further discounts.
- No reported stomach unsettlement at the 2-tablet daily dose. Most reviewers tolerate it well taken with food.
- Folic acid (not methylfolate) and magnesium oxide are the two forms most flagged by clean-label buyers as red flags. Forum reviewers comparing it to DR.VEGAN consistently land on this point.
- Tablet format is harder to swallow than capsules for some buyers. The capsule SKU exists but is less commonly stocked.
- Trustpilot reviewers credit DR.VEGAN with noticeable energy and focus improvements within 3-4 weeks, particularly buyers switching from a high-street multi.
- Clean-label positioning lands strongly with vegan and clean-eating buyers. The third-party purity testing flagged on every product page builds trust.
- Single daily capsule with no aftertaste. The MENO-friendly women-specific variants get particularly strong reviews for cycle support.
- Roughly 3x the cost per day vs the cheapest MyVitamins multi. Buyers on tight budgets push back on the premium.
- A subset of buyers prefer a multivitamin that hits 100% NRV across the broadest panel. DR.VEGAN focuses on bioavailability rather than breadth, which can read as fewer nutrients on the label.
