Usage & Dosage

How do I take MenTools One A Day?

Take one capsule daily with breakfast and a glass of water. That's it. No complex routines, no multi-pill protocols, no timing windows to stress about. One capsule with your morning meal and you've covered your daily foundation.


Do I need to cycle MenTools One A Day?

No, you don't need to cycle One A Day. It's designed as a daily supplement intended for consistent, ongoing use. If you want to take a break every few months, that won't cause any harm, but there's no requirement to do so.


Can I take it without food?

We recommend taking One A Day with food, ideally with breakfast. Taking it with a meal helps with absorption and reduces the chance of any mild stomach discomfort that some people experience when taking vitamins on an empty stomach. It doesn't have to be a full meal. A small snack works fine.


Can I take it at night?

We recommend taking One A Day in the morning with breakfast. B vitamins can feel mildly energising for some people, so a morning dose suits most men better and helps build a consistent daily habit. If mornings don't work for you, taking it with any meal during the day is fine. Just avoid taking it immediately before bed.


Can the capsule be opened and mixed into a drink?

Yes. The HPMC capsule can be opened and the contents mixed into water, juice, or a smoothie. The formula works the same way when consumed like this. Keep in mind that the powder has a noticeable taste from the vitamins and minerals, so mixing into something flavoured works better than plain water. Still take it with food.


Can MenTools One A Day be taken by anyone under the age of 18?

One A Day is formulated for adult men and is not recommended for anyone under the age of 18. If someone under 18 is considering taking any supplement, they should speak to a healthcare professional first.


Can MenTools One A Day be taken by anyone over the age of 65?

One A Day is suitable for adult men of all ages, including those over 65. That said, if you are over 65 and taking any prescription medication, we recommend speaking to your GP or pharmacist before adding any supplement to your routine. Everyone's health needs are different and your doctor is best placed to advise you personally.


I already take Vitamin D3. Will this cause an overdose?

One A Day contains 25 micrograms (1,000 IU) of vitamin D3 per daily capsule, which is 500% of the Nutrient Reference Value. The UK government guidance sets a safe upper limit of 100 micrograms (4,000 IU) per day for adults, so One A Day sits well within that range on its own. If you are already supplementing with additional vitamin D3, add up your combined daily intake and make sure it stays below that upper limit. If you are unsure, consult your GP or pharmacist.


I already take magnesium. Will this cause an overdose?

One A Day contains 100mg of elemental magnesium as magnesium bisglycinate, which is 27% of the Nutrient Reference Value. This is a moderate dose and well within safe limits for most adults. If you are taking a separate magnesium supplement on top of One A Day, check the combined amount against the EU safe upper limit of 250mg per day from supplements. If you are unsure about your total intake, speak to your GP or pharmacist before combining.
