Shaklee Vita Lea and Vita Lea Gold Ingredients
So, let's just start with what "Shaklee" is and what "Vita Lea" is.
 Shaklee has been around for over 50 years and produces a wide range of health products, including vitamins, supplements targeted to various health issues, and a range of natural, non-toxic home cleaning products.
The Shaklee Corporation is an environmentally aware organization. They have instituted such internal activities as recycling, use of natural and environmentally-friendly substances and ingredients, and have a "no animal testing" policy.
The four "Vita Lea" products, are Shaklee's daily multivitamin products. Vita-Lea is the basic product, available with or without iron, and Vita-Lea Gold, intended for those over 50, is available with or without Vitamin K.
As with most vitamin products designed for those of us over 50, Shaklee Vita Lea Gold does not contain iron, as most people of that age can easily satisfy their need for this mineral with a normal diet.
