    Default Multi Vitamin with Iron

    Good Day All,

    Getting really tired of the "mammoth sized multivitamins". It feels like I have rocks in my tummy! Any suggestions on a multivitamin that is easier to swallow or chewable?

    As always thanks to all of you for your support. Have a great weekend!

    -Mara

    I can only take gummy multi vitamins. The big horse pills have always made me sick...even pre sleeve.
