Overview
•All ingredients are at dosages well below ULs established by NIH, minimizing overdose risks for healthy adults.
•Chelated minerals and active vitamin forms enhance bioavailability but may interact with antibiotics or thyroid medications; consult physician if on drugs.
•No major allergens like gluten, dairy, soy, or nuts; suitable for most sensitivities, though derived cellulose capsule may concern strict vegans if not specified.
•Safe for general adult use, but pregnant/nursing women should consult healthcare providers due to Vitamin A and high B12 levels exceeding some pregnancy RDAs.
•Long-term use is low-risk with high-quality Thorne manufacturing, but monitor iron status as formula lacks iron, potentially unsuitable for anemic individuals.
•Minimal contamination risks given NSF certification for sport, ensuring purity from heavy metals or microbes.
