Multiform Vitamins Adult Multivitamin - Daily Multivitamin with Whole Foods (180 Pills)

These vitamins are a great addition to my health routine! They don’t have a bad taste/aftertaste, and provide all the nutrients I was looking for in a multivitamin.

I saw a documentary on TV some years ago that indicated that people who take mega-doses of vitamins die earlier than people who don't take vitamins. Just recently a report from Tufts University shared that getting your nutrients from food lowers your chances of a cardiovascular incident. The report also shared that certain supplements increase your chances of getting cancer. So my position on supplements is to proceed with care. They can be very helpful if you are deficient in that substance but they can be hurtful if you over do it. That said some people do need to supplement. I like that these vitamins do not go overboard. One popular brand's Biotin for example was 3333% of the recommended dosage. This brand has lower levels of different vitamins and minerals which can be a very good thing. One of the things I really like about this particular product is the pills do not contain Iodine. There are very few multi-vitamins that do not contain Iodine. And one nutrition stores branded product that does not contain iodine goes over board on the other vitamins and minerals in it. The bottle says the product is sourced from an FDA registered & GMP-certified facility. It is distributed by Mimi's Rock, Canada. It is not stated where it is manufactured. The bottle came safety sealed. Three tablets are suggested daily. If you can't get all your nutrients from food or need a supplement, overall, I think this is a good choice.

Received pills that were expired.

Huge tablets. Must take 3 x a day Has ingredients I do not like to take green tea. Does not say what is in it before you buy. My waste of money because of it.

What I like: 1. They are comparable in price to what I usually take, when I get mine at a discount through my doctor. 2. They are sourced from natural ingredients. 3. The contain some extras, such as probiotics and digestive enzymes, something I would normally take separately. 4. They have a smoother coating than some similar pills. So even though they are huge, I can swallow them ok. What I didn't like: 1. They are big pills. Not everyone will be able to swallow them. 2. To spread them out over the day (3 pills per day) I had to remember to take them at all meals. I forgot some. 3. I had some headaches when waking in the morning while I was taking these. Might have been coincidental, but then I skipped a few says and took them again and it seemed to happen again. I suspect there is an ingredient that I can't do. There is a long list of extras, including algae, safflower, wheat grass, green tea, PABA echinacea, lecithin. Overall, I think I prefer to be more in charge of all of the extra stuff that I have in my multivitamins. I know the company is trying to create an all-in-one healthy solution, but for me, I will have to pass and stick to the Ortho Molecular brand that I take.

Finding a good multiple vitamin can be a challenge. My family has trouble with the pills making them nauseous or just not felling well after they take them. Let's see how these measured up.. WHAT ARE THESE LIKE? In contrast to what other multiples have been like, these pills are green with spirulina in them. They don't have that usual B vitamin stink to them as others have had too. The smell of them is actually appealing compared to most multiples. SIZE? The size is large, there are no two ways about it. They can be crushed however, if you want to take them. I am not sure how that would affect the absorption process, however (too much too quickly). DOSE? We started with one pill a day and it worked out well. We then use them at two pills a day. Using that was enough to feel a difference. More energy and the feeling of being gently supported is the only way I can think to describe these. ANY PROBLEMS? One family member had a small stomach ache after taking one of these, but as it turned out, it could have been a digestive issue that affected everything they ate that day. Other than that, when taking them with a meal, no problems have been observed after a week. THE BOTTOM LINE For a good multiple vitamin that is a bit large but can be crushed, this one seems to be better than most. MY RATING FIVE STARS so far. I will update of anything changes. So far, if my family continues to like them, I might purchase again in the future.

I'm definitely not a vitamin expert, but I do eat a pretty unhealthy diet, so I know I need to take a multivitamin! I currently take the GNC Women's Multivitamin, which I believe is regarded as a pretty decent and complete multivitamin. Comparing this to the GNC vitamin, they have very similar profiles for the essential vitamins and minerals, so it seems to have everything you need. This also has added enzymes and a probiotic which is awesome, and a "fruit and vegetable" blend, whatever that is. Sure sounds healthy! Only drawback is that you need to take THREE pills every day!! I can barely remember to take one vitamin, but remembering three? These had better turn me into a super health goddess.
