Vitamin Code Women
Vitamin Code Women utilizes high-quality nutrient forms including Methylcobalamin (B12) and Vitamin D3, avoiding the 'cheap' synthetic oxides found in budget brands. However, it falls short of Gold status due to the use of 'Proprietary Blends' for its fruit, vegetable, and probiotic components, which obscures the actual dosages of those ingredients, and the high daily pill count (4 capsules) for a 30-day supply makes it less cost-effective than competitors.
