High-Quality Multivitamin That Actually Works
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.

Great multivitamin…if you can tolerate it
Good: Decent, honest vitamin/mineral stack. Imho excessively high B12 and chromium doses, but quite good otherwise. (I say “honest” because the Thorne product does not pad its ingredient list with dozens of dubious plant extracts in doses far too small to be useful – an annoying trend in this market.) Thorne’s claims of quality and bioavailability seem to be on target; I definitely notice the difference when I skip taking them for a few days.Bad: You definitely don’t want to take these on an empty stomach. I popped two immediately after I received my first order, and that was the first and last time I did so. They’re easily tolerated if you take one each with morning and evening meals. Get more than an hour or so away from meal time, however, and you can count on a bout of queasiness. Price is about mid-range for similar stacks from other brands, but their claimed quality control might make it worth the higher price.Ugly: Oh dear god, that SMELL! It isn’t like B vitamins smell all that good to start with, but opening one of these bottles is like stepping into an organic chemical factory. I find it hard to believe they can’t find a way to mitigate this.Bottom line: Once you find a way to choke it down, this seems to be pretty good stuff. I definitely have more energy and focus when taking it regularly. They have to do something about the smell and taste though. Five stars, barely.

Excellent product
If this product wasn’t awesome I wouldn’t use it. The odor is horrendous

TOXIC AMOUNT OF vitamin B MADE ME VERY SICK, BEYOND FLAT AND DEPRESSED.
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.

Body absorbs these better over store brand
I got these because my ChatGPT recommended these over the One-a-Day brand. She told me that these are a cleaner, more bioavailable alternative. Meaning that the body can better use and absorb the vitamins and minerals better than the store brand type. Yes, they smell a bit but nothing too bad. I’m about to pay for my 3rd bottle and they aren’t cheap! (4 star due to price)One small tip from personal experience: I recommend taking these just before eating, rather than with or after your meal. On a few occasions, I noticed that if I took them later, they didn’t always dissolve right away and would make a surprise return during digestion; bringing a not-so-pleasant aftertaste with them.Taking them first, on an empty stomach, followed by a meal shortly after completely solved that issue for me. Just a heads-up for anyone who’s sensitive to pill coating or taste.

All ok so far thanks

This is the multivitamin I didn’t know I needed. With just two capsules a day, I feel like I’ve got all the bases covered—energy, immunity, and overall health. It’s packed with high-quality vitamins and minerals in forms my body can actually absorb (thanks, bioavailability!).I love that it’s free from gluten, dairy, and soy, so it’s perfect for people with sensitivities. And there are no weird aftertastes or side effects like some other multivitamins I’ve tried. It’s gentle enough on an empty stomach, which is a win for those hectic mornings when breakfast is just a distant dream.Downside? The capsules are a bit large, so if you’re not great at swallowing pills, you might need extra water. And while it’s pricier than some drugstore options, the quality makes it worth it—you’re investing in your health, not cheap fillers.If you’re looking for a straightforward, high-quality multivitamin that doesn’t require juggling a handful of pills, this is it. Easy, clean, and effective!4.8/5

I’ve been taking these daily for a few weeks, but I’ve come to the point where I can no longer stand the putrid musty/sour smell from the bottle and the capsules.
