This is a review of Quest Premium Multi-Cap with Ester-C. This product contains essential vitamins and minerals including vitamin B complex, vitamin A, Ester-C form of Vitamin C, molybdenum, selenium, chromium, etc. This is not a gout supplement specifically but, rather a regular dietary supplement that looks after overall health. Vitamin B complex is required for neurological functioning and energy production in the body, while beta carotene protects the body from free radical damage. The Ester-C form of vitamin C is 4 times easier for the body to use than normal vitamin C and helps strengthen immunity. Molybdenum helps in detoxification of the body and production of uric acid. Selenium acts as an antioxidant and chromium is important for the metabolism of sugars. We decided to conduct some independent research online. Read on to learn more about this product and whether it is right for your situation.

Dosage
The recommended dosage is one capsule a day. This product should be taken with food, especially if you have a sensitive stomach. No side effects have been reported. Contact a doctor if you do experience side effects.
Price
The regular price for a bottle containing 60 soft capsules (2 months’ supply) is $32.95. However it is currently available at a discounted price of $28.95 on the website. This equates to about $14.05 per month, which is fairly reasonable for an all-purpose health supplement.
Guarantee
The company does not accept returns of opened bottles and does not offer any refund on used products. Consumers want to feel confident in trying out a new product. It is disappointing that this product does not offer the security of a money back guarantee. Many comparable products offer guarantees.
Conclusion
For an all-purpose dietary supplement, this is a good product. However, if this is considered specifically as a gout supplement, there are many preferable alternative remedies available that are more effective for treating gout.
Quest Premium Multi-cap only contains molybdenum, which specifically curbs a symptom of gout. All other components are required for general upkeep of health.
It also seems to have a very unreasonable guarantee.
