THORNE - Basic Nutrients 2/Day - Comprehensive Daily Multivitamin with Optimal Bioavailability - Vitamin & Mineral Formula - Gluten, Dairy & Soy-Free - 60 Capsules - 30 Servings

I’ve been using these for about 2 and a half months now, and I have to say I’ve noticed a huge difference in the way I feel. I feel more energetic, and even my cognitive focus seems to be much better. It’s true they’re not the most pleasant smelling/tasting things, but honestly what vitamin doesn’t have a weird smell, and how long are you holding these in your mouth before you swallow them?! I do think the 25,000% B12 is a little overkill, but your body will just get rid of what it doesn’t need (don’t be alarmed if your first bathroom visit looks like Mello Yello LOL). As far as people complaining of upset stomach, I’ve been taking these immediately after eating breakfast every day for 2.5 months, and have not had a single day where my stomach was upset. Either these people are taking them on an empty stomach, or they have something else going on.

This is one of the best daily multivitamins I’ve tried. The formula feels very well thought out, with excellent bioavailability and no unnecessary fillers. I appreciate that it’s gluten-, dairy-, and soy-free, which makes it easy on the stomach. The two-capsule daily serving is convenient, and I like that the nutrients are provided in forms that are easy for the body to absorb. I haven’t experienced any stomach discomfort, even when taking it with a light meal. Overall, this is a high-quality, reliable multivitamin from a brand I trust. It’s a bit of an investment, but the quality makes it worth it. I would definitely repurchase.

I can't say enough about this product! It is interesting how most people think that we need more vitamins- when you actually need minerals. This covers both and is a great place to start adding back to your body the items you are not getting in your diet. Within 2 weeks I noticed a difference just in how my muscles felt after activities. I purchased this product as part of my heart health and dealing with PVC's, now I won't be without it.

These are dangerous, and if I could give a no stars rating into the negative, I would do it. Ib will preface this by saying that everyone is different, but the fact that this can happen, and I now see other people have experienced this in the reviews, this product needs to be taken off of the market before it causes organ damage or death. I got this for myself and I also gave it to my husband over the course of about 2weeks. To start off, they smell horrendous. I was ok with this as theyv complain methylated forms of vitamins, and other good stuff, but it is a rotten sulfur smell. At first I did not have any burps or taste or it coming up and either did my husband. We both noticed within 2 hours of using these vitamins we were urinating neon yellow. As the week went on and I took these every day, I started to get these sulfuric, vile smelling and tasting ur0s that I can only describe as ... Like sour, rotting corn mash smell , like the smell of the vitamins in the bottle but so much intensified. Like imagine them rotting in my speech for some days that's exactly what was coming up. It felt like I had stomach rot. Constant air pains and when I would twist one way or another I could creep out another vile cursed burp of death. 😭. It was also coming out the other end in these explosive, painful, pressurized farts that sounded like paint splattering and I gave the neighbors a real audio show with that 😭. My husband slavledc on taking them and didn't get these effects. Into the second week, I started feeling extremely depressed and lethargic . I woke up and felt like my eyes couldn't open, like in didn't want to do it care about anything in the world. I felt so sad. My husband was telling me he felt the same way. We started wondering if we were getting that seasonal effective disorder because its the end of October. But this was a not normal feeling. It was very heavy. So bad. I started looking at everything we've been using and 8 logged on the been of these vitamins. Holy crap, they have like 25000 % B12 in them!!!! That is absolutely unheard of. I am aware that the human body can take a LOT of B12 but 25k percent.... THEN I READ THE OTHER REVIEWS. Do not take these vitamins unless you are a professional athlete or someone who has ran them by a medical professional face to face that is aware of the daily values in these. These would have a warning or be taken off the market. I felt so bad I was considering going to the hospital, but it finally started to subside after 4 days of not having them. Others in the reviews HAVE HAD TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL, so please, please beware and use with caution!!!! Shame on you, Thorne. I really love your products and I stan TF out of them. I've spent hundreds in a few months on their sgs mediclear system, they have great, effective formulas, but this is RECKLESS.

This multivitamin did wonders for me as someone with MTHFR definitely helped my fatigue and eased my PMDD symptoms tremendously. However, VERY important to note this has high amounts of vitamin B start with taking 1 a day then gradually move up to 2 if tolerated. Also biggest down side and reason I stoped buying it was the SMELL is putrid!! I thought it was just the first bottle I bought but the second one was just as bad. Overall and amazing vitamin if you take it slow and can get over the smell

Opening the bottle is a bold experience—these vitamins smell aggressively sulfur-y thanks to the unrefined B vitamins. If you enjoy sniffing your supplements, this is not the product for you. The taste and aftertaste are… present. You will question your choices for a moment while choking them down. That said, they actually work. Solid energy, no stomach issues, and clearly high-quality ingredients. This is a “health over happiness” situation. Advice: Don’t smell them. Swallow fast. Chase with water. Carry on. Would I buy again? Yes. Would I ever pretend they smell or taste good? Absolutely not.

I’ve been taking these Thorne multivitamins for about three months now, and I intentionally waited to write a review so I could give an honest, informed opinion. I have to say, I genuinely feel a difference since starting them. Overall, I feel more balanced—my energy levels are more consistent throughout the day, and I’m not dragging by mid-afternoon like I used to. One downside is having to take two pills daily. I wish the dose was just one, but it's manageable. Also, I’ll be honest: the smell isn’t great when you first open the bottle. It caught me off guard at first, but you do get used to it over time. That said, the quality of ingredients and the noticeable improvement in how I feel make it worth it for me. I’ve tried quite a few multivitamins, and this one stands out. If you’re looking for a high-quality, effective daily vitamin and don’t mind a slightly earthy scent, this is a solid choice that will make you feel good.

Only downside is they do have a strong smell, but that’s not abnormal for quality multivitamins.
