A Mixed Bag: Strong Results, But Some Drawbacks

summarizeEditor's Summary

I've been taking these vitamins for a few weeks now, and I'm still on the fence. The formula seems to be working – I've noticed a boost in energy and my skin looks better. But the tablets are huge and not exactly the tastiest things I've ever had. And let's be real, the acid-green urine is a weird side effect. I've read it's pretty common, but it's still a bit of a turn-off. I'm not sure if I'd recommend these vitamins to a friend, but they're not a total letdown either.

A Mixed Bag: Strong Results, But Some Drawbacks
I started taking these vitamins this fall, and I was pretty hopeful. The description mentioned a high number of vitamins in the formula, which was a major selling point for me. After reading some reviews, I found both good and bad comments, but I figured individual results vary – no vitamins are perfect.
After they arrived, I started taking three tablets a day, as instructed. The tablets are huge and not exactly the tastiest things I've ever had, but I don't count that as a con, since it doesn't bother me too much. I just take some water and swallow them.
The first thing I noticed after taking them? Acid-green urine! I looked it up online and found that's a pretty common side effect, although I didn't come across any reviews mentioning it before ordering. Apparently, it's the body's way of processing unused vitamins. I decided to experiment and took two tablets a day, which also caused the urine color change. Even a single tablet, taken after a long break, caused a noticeable change. I decided to keep taking them, despite this...
One thing that did bother me was the potential for over-supplementation. The vitamins are indeed very potent, with some ingredients exceeding the daily recommended dose by 2000%. I'm not sure if this is a concern for everyone, but it's something to keep in mind.
On the other hand, I did feel like the vitamins had a local effect while I was taking them – they helped me avoid getting sick (I wasn't always taking them on schedule, mind you). I'm not sure if it's just a coincidence, but I felt like I was getting sick less often.
A few months after finishing the course, I got a cold, so I decided it was time to re-order and asked my family to bring some more from the US for future use. My mom's nails are really brittle, so I'll definitely be suggesting these to her.
The expiration date is June 30, 2023, which is something to keep in mind if you're planning on stocking up.
I'd say these vitamins are a mixed bag. They're potent and seem to work well, but they also come with some drawbacks. If you're considering trying them, weigh the pros and cons carefully.
