Clean quality 3rd party tested
These were 3rd party tested and had great clean results. I have been reading into ingredients and learning all of the stuff about the ingredients the body needs and it has the good forms of all ingredients. Example: Folic acid is actually man made and is in most of the prenatals, but Thorne has the natural form our bodies actually absorb, which is 5MTHF. I have the MTHFR gene mutation so I need the 5MTHF in order to absorb it in the first place. This product has been amazing compared to all the other brands Iâve tried. Even higher rated brands.I have 3 kids and I have tried all different kinds of prenatals. These Thorne ones are by far the best ones I have had. My daughter is 9 months and I still take them because they make me feel great! I take 2 instead of 3 because I also take other vitamins on top of it. But it is so worth the price.

Best prenatals
I tried multiple different prenatals until I found this one. First trimester I couldnât stomach any kind of chewable and some also caused upset stomach. by the end of first trimester I found these, was kinda turned off that they are large pills and you have to take 3 BUT I could tolerate them much better than the others. I didnât think they had a taste or smelled weird. used automatic shipment, on my third bottle now.

All research leads here, has ACTIVE forms of the good stuff
My research all led me here. I was taking big club store brands, which are pretty good. However, these have the ACTIVE form of vitamins and minerals (big club stores and gummies don’t). It is expensive, so I did subscribe and save. (Regular price is same as Target, but Amazon delivers faster and is less expensive with Subscribe and Save.) I have hopes it will help with my iron level too, which has been low. Do your research, but this is quality. I take two before bed with no problems.Note: Because I take two (recommended), my Subscribe and Save did not get here in time when bottle was done. Plan accordingly. Maybe two bottles??

Minimal hair loss
Been using this since I heard about it towards the end of my pregnancy and going on 11 weeks postpartum. One thing I’ve seen a big difference in with this versus my first 2 pregnancies is the minimal amount of hair loss postpartum.

Contaminated Thorne Prenatal Vitamins Sent Me to the ER
I started taking Thorne prenatal vitamins three months before trying to conceive and continued taking them daily (3 tablets per day) throughout my pregnancy. Iâve gone through about 8â9 bottles so far. Iâm currently 36 weeks pregnant and recently took my usual dose â shortly after, I experienced severe poisoning symptoms. Within two hours, I began vomiting continuously throughout the night and eventually had to be admitted to the ER for IV fluids, blood work, injections, and baby monitoring.After this frightening experience, I closely examined the capsules and discovered they were discolored and appeared to be spoiled or damaged (photo attached). This incident caused me an incredible amount of distress and risked both my health and my babyâs. I urge the company to investigate this issue immediately and ensure stricter quality control. This was an extremely traumatic and dangerous experience that no one should have to go through.

A prenatal that has it all
I have had 3 miscarriages so I was on the search for the best prenatal pill on the market. I needed something that had it all. I needed to feel like I am doing all I can to provide my body with the nutrients needed. I researched everything on the market and landed on Thorne prenatal. It checked off everything except omega- 3 DHA (sold separately). I thought I’ll pay whatever and buy both if that means I get all the nutrients. The pills are great for the nutrients but it is a struggle to have to take 5 pills total (3 basic prenatal and 2 prenatal DHA. And it does not help that the Basic Prenatal literally smells like cat urine. I had read the reviews on the smell and thought surely it can not be that bad.. oh it’s bad lol. This is why I give it 4 stars and not 5. If you can easily take pills without gagging, you will be fine. I have to smell something good and then immediately chug a pill and repeat until I’ve taken all the ones that smell terrible. It was hard to find a prenatal that checked off everything so I am willing to suffer through the smell to get it all. I have also noticed the prenatal makes me want to urine more frequently (I am not pregnant yet) just prepping my body and the urine it highlighter yellow. I believe this might be the B12 in the pills.

Only Three
My Wife has been using this product for quite some time now and thinks itâs great. She does get mad when I tell her, only 3 bottles at a time. I believe she thinks I am limiting the amount ordered and not the seller. I donât mind. After 54 years of being married to each other I love it because itâs the only argument I ever win.

Good and clean
I love these prenatal vitamins. I do have a hard time swallowing them but I am sensitive this pregnancy
Amazon ã«ã¹ã¿ãã¼ –
The product is fine but don’t bother ordering from iherb. They will cancel your order and only inform you of this 4-5 days later. It’s better to order from another vendor.
