Does anyone have any experience of using these vitamins and can report back either good or bad regarding amounts of vitamins in pill, if they made you nauseous etc..

Thanks!

I don't have any experience with that particular brand but can definately share what my studying and two-child personal experiences have taught me.

I've found for me the biggest thing is to make sure I'm not trying to take everything in a single one-a-day vitamin supplement. Some vitamins and minerals don't interact as well with others. Your iron, Vit C and such should be taken in the morning and throughout the day. Your Calcium/Magnesium supplement should be taken in the evening before bed...perhaps an hour or so.

Calcium alone will not be used by the body effectively so find a supplement with Cal/Mag together. Taking before bed helped clear up night time leg cramps and also helped me sleep better!

Blessings, Angela
