Just picked this up today, I had been guilty of just picking up any old daily, so I wanted to get a good one. This one seems to eliminate the need to take some of the other supplements I'm taking, so less pills!! The only thing I don't like is it has iron, but only 50%, they didn't carry it w/o iron. Should this be okay? The only time I'm really getting iron these days is with dinner. I liked the idea of a liquid gel formula, and this one really packs in a lot of what some of the other multis don't, plus no binders or fillers. In addition to this I'll continue to take my calcium, cinnamon, CLA, and I'm assuming it will be okay to continue taking my B complex. Does this seem to be a good formula?



Women’s Living Green Liquid-Gel Multi™ Women’s Living Green Liquid-Gel Multi™ sets a much needed new standard in today’s world of low nutrition and high stress. Using powerful botanicals from whole living plants, this is not a one-size-fits-all formula… it’s targeted to meet the unique nutrition profile that women need. For example, it contains Folic Acid, Omega 3 Oils and Green Tea. But most importantly, it’s one of the world’s only plant based multi-nutrition formulas that is delivered in a liquid soft-gel. So what does that mean to you? Soft-gels are more quickly absorbed in your body, they’re easier to swallow and they contain no binders and fillers like tablets do, so there’s more room for life-giving nutrients. But the greatest benefit of soft-gels is that they can hold special oils, such as Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). Unlike any other multi, this breakthrough formula combines over 116 nutrients and 72 trace minerals that cover the following 12 categories:

ONE: Full-Spectrum Vitamins
TWO: Minerals
THREE: Digestive Enzymes
FOUR: Crucial Oils
FIVE: Amino Acids
SIX: Fruits, Vegetables & Herb Blend
SEVEN: Green Super Foods
EIGHT: Anti-Aging Nutrients
NINE: Targeted Nutraceuticals
TEN: Immuno Support Nutrients
ELEVEN: Memory/Concentration Nutrients
TWELVE: Energy Nutrients

ewwww...contain soy..not good.

Plus it has no calcium to speak of..you'll have to take a calcium supplement along with it.

The problem with this product is that it has SOOOO much in it,that key nutrient does are low.

I love Aswhanganda..but the researched amount to have any real benefit/effect is 250 mgs..this product has 24mgs..

Phoshpatidylserine..50 mgs is minimum..

It's not the worst I've seen, but certainly there are better options out there.
