Our take

Thoughtfully stacked

For women who want a focused, well-formed daily multi, not a mega-dose kitchen sink.

Nutrients, gap-filler design

USP

Verified

A gap-filler, not a kitchen-sink multi, and honest about it. Nine nutrients in the forms that actually absorb: methylfolate instead of folic acid, vegan D3, K2 as MK-7, chelated iron, algae DHA. USP Verified and third-party tested for heavy metals and microbes, which almost no multivitamin bothers to prove. If you want a broad-spectrum multi it is intentionally not that, and that focus is the point.
