"When I realized that Vitacost offered gender-targeted multivitamins, I immediately made the switch from my former multivitamin to the Synergy Women's formula. This enabled me to ditch many of the additional supplements I had been taking, including C, D3, B vitamins, CoQ10, Biotin and an antioxidant formula containing pomegranate. Not only does this formula save me money in the long run, but it also cuts down on the number of pills I have to take each day. The formula is so complete that for most women, the need to take a pile of extra supplements is greatly reduced; I especially love how much eye-specific Lutein and Zeaxanthin this formula contains, much more than most "eye" formulas. If I had to lodge a negative comment, it would be this >>> Women need a LOT more calcium than just 500 mg, especially those of us who are post-menopausal (we are supposed to get 1,500 mg/daily). So I have to supplement with NSI's 1,000 mg Calcium Citrate & Malate (Item #NSI 3005109) each day. Still, having to take some extra calcium seems like a small price to pay for getting such a comprehensive multivitamin. I HIGHLY recommend it!******************************************************************************
******************************************************************************* If Vitacost actually reads these reviews and listens to its consumers, my advice would be to PLEASE ADD MORE CALCIUM TO THIS FORMULA!!"

"Maybe this will work fine for other women, but this knocked my system out of whack. The skin on my face became dry and flaky. I think it's due to the metals in this vitamin such as copper. I had to stop taking it. After a few days, my skin was back to normal."

Great vitamins, but too many pills to take,

"I likely won't buy these again. They have a great mix of the needed vitamins and minerals but I have such a hard time taking the recommended 8 pills per day. I can't take vitamins at night or I won't sleep so I have to take them all first thing in the morning which makes me gag. I need to go back to a vitamin that only has 1 or 2 pills to take daily."

The Best Multivitamin for Women,
December 16, 2009
"If you look at the ingredients, NSI has put together essential vitamins for women. I research alot, and they have nailed it, and I feel great. If you are pre menopausal, they make a formula with iron. I cook with iron cookware, so I prefer this formula."
