Customer Reviews of Rainbow Light Just Once Prenatal One Multivitamin, 90 Tablets
Customer Review: love that amazon subscription program!
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband and I are looking to start a family soon and I wanted to start early on the vitamins. Especially that folic acid! I am not very good at remembering to take pills so a one-a-day was crucial for me. I keep them on the kitchen counter and take them in the evenings, usually after dinner.
The Rainbow Prenatal One tablets are a tad big, but that's to be expected. Aside from a light hesitation I haven't had any trouble swallowing them. They have a nice nature smell to them.. I can't think of a better way to describe it! Not much of a taste at all, but I'd have to describe that as kind of grassy.. in a good way. I like it.
I've had no issues with stomach pain or discomfort after taking them, no side effects at all that I can detect.. Even when I take the pill well after meals.
All in all I am very satisfied with the tablets and I've signed up for Amazon's subscription program to have them delivered every three months. With the Amazon Prime membership it's a no-brainer.. 15% off and I'll never forget to get my vitamins again!
Customer Review: Gentle, love the extras
Summary: 5 Stars
I used to take the Spring Valley prenatals when I was TTC but switched to these after I got pregnant because I was dizzy a lot and suspected low iron to be the culprit.
Once I started taking these the dizzies went away! I think I do better with the form of iron in these vitamins. I was also experiencing a little bit of nausea and that went away too. Although I can't be for sure that it was due to these vitamins, I don't think they hurt. I also no longer suffer "iron burps" and can take this pill any time of day (I had to take my old ones at night to avoid nausea).
They are big and a bit smelly, but I swallow them with a glass of milk (I'm not a vegan) and I don't have any problems getting them down.
I also like the added digestion probiotics. I haven't suffered any constipation yet and I'm in my 3rd trimester.
I think these vitamins are great for the price and I would highly recommend to anyone.
Customer Review: A great prenatal vitamin!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my first pregnancy, so I don't have a whole lot to compare to - but I really do love these prenatal vitamins! Prior to receiving them in the mail, I was just taking my regular women's multivitamin. This was the time when I had my morning sickness and nausea throughout the day and I felt terrible. Ever since getting and taking my Rainbow Light Just Once prenatals, I have felt wonderful with little to no nausea! I can't necessarily say for a fact that the vitamins make me feel better, but I think they did. One day when I forgot to take one when I normally do, I ended up feeling pretty awful. These have not upset my stomach whatsoever, they are very easy for me to take, and they don't taste or smell that bad. One other benefit I have noticed is they have kept me very regular, which is always a good thing! If you're used to taking a multivitamin, you should not have trouble with these. I'm glad I made the purchase!Customer Review: Large but GREAT
Summary: 5 Stars
I do "HATE" large vitamins, so I started a fight when my pediatrician/husband bought them for me... Now, I'm online trying to purchase more.
CONS: It's true, they're on the big side. But strangely, I don't have any problems swallowing them (I did with other ones). Also, they leave an aftertaste--as another reviewer said. But it goes away easily (juice, cracker, etc), and I usually take them with meals to improve absorption.
PROS: They're easily digestible (I didn't have any of the sickness or heartburn suggested), it's once a day, and above all, it's all NATURAL--which is important for me.
THE POINT: I didn't find any natural vitamins that were as easy to take.
If you want any regular pre-natal vit, I'd go for the prescription ones: You take them once daily. They are small, tasteless, safe and very-very affordable.
Customer Review: A great choice
Summary: 5 Stars
I did a lot of research before buying these vitamins, and I can say with confidence that I felt they were the best choice for me and my baby (except maybe New Chapter vitamins, but those are SO crazy expensive and have to be taken so frequently that they really weren't a viable option).
I was very concerned about the lead content issue raised in one of the reviews of this product and I followed up with the FDA and my midwife and the Rainbow Light company and I received sufficient evidence to dispell my concerns.
I'll admit, the taste can be pretty miserable and the pills are enormous. I gag about 90% of the time I swallow them... but I always get them down eventually. Anyhow, my feeling is, it's a worthwhile sacrifice for my baby's health.
