I just wanted to pass on that I've found a multi-vitamin that I just LOVE! It's called "Source of Life" made by Nature's Plus. Here's a link (http://www.herbshop.com/np_sol.htm) for an online vendor (Netrition doesn't carry it apparently), but I bought mine at a Health Food store for $18/90 tabs. (a one month supply)

The label states that it's GUARANTEED to give you a boost of energy or your money back. Let's just say I won't be asking for a refund. I feel WONDERFUL since I started taking them.... I never have a slump in my day at all. I think they're great!

Hey Terri,
I been taking Dieters Multi for a while, but I did a search on your Source of Life product and found a site where you can get 180 caps for $34.12US. If you buy $50 shipping is free.

180 Caps Source of Life $34.12 (http://discountnaturalvitamins.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=D&Product_Code=NP3058)

I just bought some more Dieters Multi, but I might give Source of Life a try next time.

Regards,
