That is what we use.
Just noticed this post regarding the Centrum Senion and that it is Iron Free. You say that is important of older females and males. I am 73 and husband 78 and our daily multivitamin has in Bold letters With Iron. It shows 18mg.s Iron = 100%. I did not realize, as we get older Iron is not a good idea. Am I correct in this assumption?

Also noticed your mentioning magnesium is good for circulation. I have edema and Statsis Dermatatis of the feet, ankles and legs. The ankles has many broken blood vessels. I had an ultrasound and there isn't any clotting or serious problems detected because of this. My doctor tells me to elevate my feet and wear compression stockings. I have tried and because of the burning PN in those areas, the sock add terribly to the pain and am unable to keep them on.
For the circulation; what would be a good amount of Magnesuim to take. Currently have a bottle of the Chelated Magnesium 200mg+, but as of yet, have not taken any.
As always, thank you,

(Ger)
