I take vitamins as insurance that I’m getting what I need, because yeah, I don’t eat well 100% of the time especially now as my job picks up again. I’m not a picky gal and my only requirements for a multi-vitamin are:
- it’s vegan
- it’s not a gigantic horsey-pill
- I only have to think about it once a day
I finally found the vitamin that lives up to all that. I’m on my second bottle.
The big thing for me is the size of these multi-vits. Other vitamins I’ve taken, though more potent, were so large that I hated having to choke them down and hence I wouldn’t take them as often as I should have. Sure, these guys are less potent than those of the horsey-pill variety, but I don’t fear choking on them and so I take them every day.
I take Deva as well. I didn’t realize they made tiny tablets! Are you able to find them in stores near you or do you order them online?
I buy them online. I haven’t seen them in stores here.
I’m so glad you wrote this post! I’ve been looking for ages for a good vegan multi-vitamin. Right now I take vegan B-12 and Vitashine’s vegan Vitamin D3. But I’ll pick this up too…thanks for the info!
I pop a B12 when I remember, but haven’t taken any other kind of supplement in ages. Guess I should get my annual physical and see if I have any deficiencies…
We take those as well! I have a very hard time with large pills, too, so these are perfect. Plus, I like that they don’t give you a shit-ton percentage of everything.
Which website do you go to? I have B12 supplements but still have yet to be diligent taking em.
There are a few places you can get them:
veganstore.com
luckyvitamin.com
organicpharmacy.org
and even amazon.com has them.
I just found out I have a vitamin D deficiency. I already pop a B12 every other day, so I’ll add D to the list (and maybe check out the DEVA multivitamin too).
