@nafecar I'm sure Andrew Lessman has a great product. Unfortunately he uses gelatin in his formulas so I won't purcha se. I recently bought Nature's Lab One Daily Multivitamin Easy to Swallow Vegetarian capsules at Costco. I like them and will continue to use as long as they are available on Costco online. I have also used Garden of Life organic vegan Once Daily multiple vitamin and would recommend.

Have you tried putting the vitamin n in a spoonful of yogurt or applesauce? I used to do that when my daughter had trouble swallowing a pill.

@nafecar Yes Andrew Lessman's are easy to swallow & small capsules. I take his Essential 1. You only have to take 1 pill. His other multi vitamins are 5-6 pills but of course have more ingredients. You can compare his products on his site. He will be on HSN as shown below & the prices will be reduced. Here is his schedule if you are interested.

I stay away from Lessman's things because they have too much of the mdr. I don't want to ingest that much because we have a good diet in general, and I read that you should not take too many vitamines. They also have other herbs, spices, and ingredients I'm not sure about.

I try to keep it simpy with vitamines.

I love Andrew's Essential 1. Easy to swallow for me.

I take two Centrum Gummies for Adults every morning. Easy to chew and they taste great!

My endocrinologist told me to take Centrum Silver for Women....and nothing else. He said he recommends Centrum and only Centrum to his patients because he knows the product and has faith that it's easily absorbed. He explained that there are a lot of very good vitamins on the market but many the key is how well they absorbed by th body, especially as we get older. He said it doesn't matter how good or expensive a vitamin is if you just pee it out. It's funny, I never met a doctor who has heard of Andrew Lessman or his HSN products.

@nafecar This is the best powdered multiple I feel on the market. No taste, mixes in anything from juice to food. Great formula. Only one TBSP a day. This is the formula I take. They make several others including one rice based for allergic individuals. I buy at Vitacost on line, but it is sold most everywhere. You can get it with iron as well as without. Also no fillers or binders NO sugar or artificial colors etc.

I was actually just googling small multivitamins yesterday because I hate the huge pills. I saw One A Day Petite which is just smaller than the original and you take two. I'll probably try these next time.

Look at and read about Mega Foods on Amazon.

They are small not 400% more than you need daily. I take the one for kids....it does not contain iron but I find the lesser amounts of the same vitamins a plus for me.

I'm very happy taking Andrew Lessman's multivitamin. I can't swallow a pill at all so I just open the capsule and put in a tiny bit of juice.

If you are concerned about the RDA (or safe upper limits), Centrum Silver Chewables were the ones I found to be in the safe zone for me.

I took them while I was transitioning from Nature's Code to Andrew Lessman.

Another vote for Lessman One Essential. I can't swallow the huge hard tablets either.

Anyone know now of a decent calcium supplement that isn't a huge tablet? The gummies have carbs and sugar, so I pass on those.

thanks!

I have been taking Andrew Lessmans vitamins for years. I love them. They are easy to swallow and absorb since they are powder in a capsule without any chemical additive or dyes.

Work great for me and my family. Thankfully, we never get sick!!

momoftwo2007 — Mon, 03 Jul 2017 21:09:17 GMT

I am agreeing with the other posters about Andrew Lesserman's Essential One. It's a capsule with fine powders in it. So, it is easy to swallow and easy to digest.

I was taking Andrews multivitamin with the multiple capsules. I switched to his multi vitamin 1 taking only 1 capsule and I am happy. It is a small, easy to take capsule.
