Overview
•All ingredients are at dosages well below established upper limits (e.g., vitamin D at 50 mcg vs. 100 mcg UL), safe for healthy adults per NIH guidelines.
•Chelated minerals and active vitamin forms (e.g., methylfolate, methylcobalamin) reduce interaction risks and improve tolerability, with low potential for GI upset.
•No known major drug interactions in this formulation, but high B12 (600 mcg) may interact with metformin; consult physician if on medications.
•Suitable for pregnancy at recommended doses (e.g., folate 680 mcg DFE meets RDA), but vitamin A (1.05 mg) approaches cautionary levels—monitor total intake.
•Low allergen risk; free from gluten, dairy, soy, but contains coconut-derived oil—avoid if allergic; third-party tested for contaminants by NSF.
•Long-term use safe due to balanced formula avoiding excesses; boron (2 mg) supports bone health without exceeding safe limits (20 mg/day).
