Large pills; made me sick to my stomach
I had read the previous reviews before purchasing the vitamins so I was prepared for the large size of the pills. They also have the awful natural vitamin smell. Because they contained such a great combination for a multi vitamin, I was going to overlook those two deficiences.
However, these vitamins made me throw up or get extremely nauseous three different times so I have now given up on the pills.

These seem to have helped my general health
I am a fan of Dr. Weil and have read his book on healthy aging. I started looking around for a multivitamin and decided that his would be the best bet. I have been taking them now for about a year and recently had a physical exam where all of my lab numbers were perfect. They were even better than last year. I only take a little medication for blood pressure which has run a little high even with the prescription meds. My BP is now much lower and is well below my previous readings. I take a few other supplements.
The doctor was very pleased and told me not to change anything in my routine. I am a 67 year old male.
I don't know whether to attribute it all to Dr. Weil's multivitamins, but I am pleased.
