Why people keep reordering it

Highly absorbable forms

Chelated forms your body takes up, instead of oxide that mostly passes through.

Calm and recovery

Supports muscle relaxation, sleep quality and everyday stress resilience.

Gentle on digestion

Formulated to skip the laxative effect of cheaper magnesium.

Best suited to: menstruating women who eat little red meat, women who might become pregnant, anyone done with three tablet multis.

What the research supports

A one-a-day multivitamin for women who still menstruate, built around 7.5 mg of iron and 0.5 mg of folic acid. 60 capsules is two months.

7.5 mg is a top-up against the 18 mg women who menstruate need daily.

Red blood cells (evidence: strong, from human requirement studies)

Iron, folic acid and B12 are the raw materials red blood cells are built from. This capsule supplies all three daily, covering what a typical diet often misses.

Energy (evidence: strong, from human requirement studies)

Six B vitamins in this capsule are cofactors cells use to pull energy out of food. Each is dosed above the daily requirement.

Bone maintenance (evidence: moderate, from randomized controlled trial, meta-analysis)

Vitamin D3 and vitamin K work together to place calcium into bone. The 100 mg of calcium here covers only a small slice of a day's need.

Is it right for you

Worth it if

menstruating women who eat little red meat

7.5 mg of iron daily as ferrous fumarate closes part of the gap a low meat diet leaves

women who might become pregnant

0.5 mg of folic acid clears the 0.4 mg a day advised before conception

anyone done with three tablet multis

one small vegetarian capsule, with the trace minerals chelated rather than thrown in as oxides

Look elsewhere if

women past menopause

the 50+ version of this formula, which leaves the iron out and runs higher on C, B6, B12 and chromium

someone told their iron is genuinely low

a dedicated iron supplement at 20 mg or more of elemental iron, since 7.5 mg tucked inside a multi will not refill stores

anyone who wants active B forms

a multi built on methylfolate and methylcobalamin rather than folic acid and cyanocobalamin

What to expect

A multivitamin does not announce itself. Expect bright yellow urine from riboflavin within a day, and in some people a little stomach heaviness from the iron if it is taken without food. Nothing else is meant to be perceptible.

How it compares

Compared with a basic supermarket women's multivitamin

carries 245 mcg of vitamin K next to the 1000 IU of D3, and uses HVP chelates for zinc, selenium, chromium, copper and manganese instead of oxides The tradeoff: it costs more per day, and its calcium at 100 mg and magnesium at 50 mg of oxide are exactly as token as the cheap one's
