I don't have a clue what many of those herbs are about. And I can't imagine why they bothered to add 1 mg of tyrosine, for example. Anyway, I still think you're light on vitamin E. And C (though diet might cover that.) The minerals are adequately covered.
I think it wouldn't hurt if you took a teaspoon of cod liver oil once a fortnight. Betacarotene is not a total equivalent to vitamin A. And the extra D won't hurt you a bit. The RDA for vitamin D is going to be increased drastically, or so goes the rumour.
