Keep in mind that aspartate.... will stimulate the NMDA receptor for pain. This aspartic acid in Nutrasweet is thought to be the culprit in the headaches people commonly get from it.

The NMDA receptor:

Because NMDA antagonists work for PN pain, I tend to avoid
all aspartic acid or aspartate products for that reason.

It is similar to avoiding MSG, monosodium glutamate. Same reason, for people with chronic pain, MSG will trigger them.

And I agree, it is very difficult to get multivitamin products with a formula YOU need and want. I tend to avoid mixtures and only take
single ones that are the most important. I use the generic multi Senior only occasionally, for that reason.
