Very good product. I love that it is a whole food and filled with amazing ingredients. The pills are large, but so are most multivitamins... and I don't think they are harder to swallow than most large pills. Depends on if you have issues with large pills - if you do, then you might want to think of getting something else or even taking the liquid multivitamin that Alive! carries.

I've been taking these vitamins only a short time, but I cannot believe how *** GOOD *** I feel! My brother turned me onto them, he's had the same reaction. I feel a vitality I haven't in years. I agree they're kind of large, but swallowing each pill with a mouthful of food makes it easy.

Not only did I have a hard time swallowing these vitamins (they are huge and taste bad, and are hard on the stomach), I had a hard time swallowing the price. I recommend that you buy the powder form, or go with a specific multivitamin that is made for you. Although I'm not a health professional, I'm basing this on the price of these vitamins vs. the benefit, as well as how well they are targeted for what each person needs. Personally, I find that if I take a men's multivitimin such as Every Man's Once Daily, I feel better than if I take the Alive Energizer. They cost about half as much, too, and you only take one per day. Of course, different manufacturers also make multivitimins for Women, Teens, over 40's, over 50's, etc., so in my opinion, you should always buy the one works best for you. If it is this, and you can swallow it, then don't be discouraged by my review, mind you. But for me, they are only O.K. If I'm right (it's been a while) you need to take 2-3 of these per day. Yech. The taste is rather bad, and you run out quickly, even if there are 180 of them. Expensive. Overhyped.
