Pure Encapsulations O.N.E. Multivitamin - Once Daily Multivitamin with Antioxidant Complex Metafolin, CoQ10, and Lutein to Support Vision, Cognitive Function, and Cellular Health* - 60 Capsules

First things first, this is a great multivitamin. I (22F) started taking it to help treat my telogen effluvium (hair loss caused by stress/hormone changes), along with Iron-C and ashwagandha supplements from the same brand, and I’m happy to say that ALL my hair is growing back, good as new, after just a few weeks! However, there are a few things I wish I’d known before I started taking this one. First, since it’s so jam-packed with ingredients, each pill is going to be insanely potent and have a powerful, noticeable effect on your body from the moment it hits your stomach. Bear in mind, I am a HUGE skeptic when it comes to taking any kind of supplements—before I got TE, the only things I’d ever taken were Flintstones vitamins—so I was pretty suspicious of all the reviews on this one claiming that it made people jittery and energized immediately after taking just one. I thought surely these people were suffering from the placebo effect or forgetting that they’d taken it along with a cup of coffee or something equally preposterous. Boy was I wrong. These things really do slam into your system like a live wire! Unlike some of the others in this review section, I don’t find it uncomfortable or disruptive to my day-to-day in any way, but it is certainly hard to forget about. Second, the TASTE! Ugh. I have to plug my nose when I’m taking it, and I don’t let go until after I’ve swallowed, it’s that awful! It kinda tastes/smells like a stale old barnyard. Imagine the smell of hay mixed with a blossoming Bradford pear tree (the ones with the little white flowers whose odors are nothing like a pear). No bueno. But easy enough to work around if you don’t mind a slight ear-popping sensation when you swallow. Heaven forbid you have to taste a burp with it still undigested in your stomach, but that’s the worst of it. Now, I’ve saved the worst for last, and it’s directed specifically towards anyone with ADHD: DO NOT TAKE THIS AT THE SAME TIME AS YOUR MEDICATION!!! If you take a stimulant medication of any kind for any reason, PLEASE heed my warning. I’ve made this mistake twice now and both times I wished I could just die so I could escape the indescribable pain I was in. The experience only lasts about 15 minutes to half an hour, but the whole time you’ll be groaning and writhing, clutching your stomach, heavy and labored breathing, sweat literally pouring out over your entire body, as you endure an acute short version of the same kinda pain one might feel at the peak of their worst period cramp ever. If you’re a woman then you know the type of pain I’m talking about and will steer clear at any cost. If you’re a man and you have an Adderall Rx, feel free to take this multivitamin at the same time to get a feel for what menstrual pains are like, then remember the traumatic horror of it all whenever you’re tempted to roll your eyes at a woman who says she’s really going through it. It’s just awful. I don’t know exactly how or why these two pills interact with each other in such an explosive way, so I can’t give any advice on when it’s safe to take one after the other, but I haven’t had too much trouble unless I take them within 45ish minutes of each other. There was one time where I took my Adderall (30mg IR for reference) about an hour before I took my vitamins, and I did feel the tiniest brush of the same sensation, but it was just a twinge—maybe a minute or two long, and exponentially milder than the two times I took them together or nearly back to back. The worst of it was when I took the two simultaneously, like in the same handful with the same gulp of water to wash them down. The second time, I took my Adderall about 10 minutes prior to the multivitamin, and it was pretty much the same amount of pain, but it felt like it was over just a little bit faster. This leads me to suspect it has something to do with absorption or digestion rates, so from here on out I will be making absolute sure that I don’t let these things anywhere near each other in my stomach. Am I going to stop taking either of them altogether? No! But I hope my experience can serve as a cautionary tale to those in my same position and prevent them from enduring the same horrific fate.

Excellent multivitamin. Clean ingredients. Feel great when taking it.

Very nice product.. They are a little pricey, but they are clean. I look for clean products for my household. It took awhile to realize how the corporations have dirtied our old standards. I appreciate the quality of PURE!

I can't live without these! I feel so much better every time I take one of these, mind clear and ready to go each morning. Pure encapsulation is 100% a rop quality brand that i will never stray from. 10/10

Quick Take: This is a very solid once-daily multivitamin with high-quality ingredients that I’ve repurchased multiple times. The only drawback for me is the price. What I Like: ✓ Only one capsule per day ✓ Includes methylated forms (L-MTHF and methylcobalamin) ✓ Consistent quality and packaging ✓ I personally feel a difference taking it What Could Be Better: → Price is on the higher side for long-term daily use Final Thoughts: I’ve bought these multiple times and they’ve always been consistent in quality. I like that it’s a one-a-day formula and uses methylated ingredients, which matters for absorption. No taste, small size (about a quarter in height), easy to swallow. For me, it’s been a reliable product that I keep coming back to, but the cost is what holds it back slightly. If price isn’t a concern and you want a quality multivitamin, this is a strong option.

Smells pretty bad, but great quality. No upset stomach. Easy to use. Feels great

So far these vitamins have been great. Bio available and a great price. If you’re looking for a good multi vitamin, these are worth your consideration.

This is one of the best multivitamins on the market. If you are overwhelmed on what supplement to take or what vitamin to take, rest assured this is the number one daily vitamin to take.

Had been taking this high quality multivitamin for some time and good feedback

great product
