This is a fantastic product! I will definitely be making regular purchases of it! Because of the thyroid disease that I have, I suffer from a severe lack of B vitamins. I have tried many others including injections, but this is definitely a keeper! And a lot cheaper than weekly injections!
I take metformin for pre-diabetes. With diet and exercise, I hope to be able to come off of it. But what I noticed after several months of being on it is extreme fatigue. Prior to that, I had been working out twice per day without a problem. Then, I started to feel extremely tired and almost ready to give up on the twice per day workouts. I sweat a lot when I work out so at first I thought that maybe I was a little low in potassium. I tried supplementing potassium and that helped a little but not enough. I got online and I did some research and discovered that for some people, metformin depletes vitamin B12 in their bodies. The research said that it usually takes longer for you to become completely depleted than several months but I decided to supplement with vitamin B12 anyway to see what would happen. I've had other vitamin deficiencies before (including vitamin D deficiency and iron deficency). My doctor said that I wasn't deficient in vitamin D but within weeks of beginning supplementation, a whole host of maladies started clearing up for me. Muscle aches. Joint pain. Depression. Within months, the improvements continued. My hair begin to get thicker when before it had become very thin - and I had attributed that to a thyroid condition but it was the vitamin D. So just because a doctor or research says that it takes several years for vitamin B12 to be depleted by metformin doesn't necessarily mean that this is true for everyone. If you're somebody who maybe doesn't eat right all the time or just started to eat healthy after years of not eating healthy or, like me, you've worked very stressful jobs for years and years, it's possible that you already had mild deficiency to begin with. Maybe several months on metformin can be the proverbial straw that breaks the camel's back and takes you all the way to complete depletion. I noticed that Zhou nutrition's hair and nail supplement contained a lot of vitamin B 12 so since I like that supplement , I decided to reorder it and I started taking it faithfully twice per day ( which is the recommended dosage). Within a few days, my energy came back up a little. I was able to get through my second workout but still grudgingly. I was having the back down on my speed and intensity. But then I learned about the methyl B12 and how it was a better and more accessible form of vitamin B12. I've been on it about three weeks now I think. The first week or two that I took it, I didn't notice much difference. Then, when I started doing a lot of work in my yard this spring like digging holes (which takes a lot of energy), planting flowers, trees, and shrubs, pulling weeds, using a push mower on hilly surfaces, and pushing heavy wheelbarrows, etc, etc. I started to see that I was able to power through it even with the two workouts that I'm already doing per day. It really sank in how far I've come yesterday when I was able to get off work and go and help my dad plant azaleas and still come home and do my second workout without a problem. The effects are subtle at first but if you continue to take it, after a couple weeks you will start to notice some more stamina that maybe you didn't have before. I attribute to the methyl B12 because I have not introduced anything else new to my supplementation regimen.
So far so good!!! I have tried other methlylated b12 and if anything felt more tired and blechy taking them. I definitely feel a boost or energy taking these. No more sluggish mornings!!!!Very pleasantly surprised and would purchase again...

I could tell a difference in my nails and hair almost immediately after beginning use of these prenatal vitamins. I had been using the rainbow brand before this, and didnt feel like I was able to absorb the nutrients (mostly because my urine was very bright green after taking them) and I wasn't noticing any difference in nails or hair. They are super easy to take (even though they are large) and they don't upset my stomach at all. Great ingredients, highly recommend for mom and baby!
I take these plus Nordic Naturals DHA. I started taking them roughly three months before we got pregnant, and now I am 17 weeks pregnant and have not had a single negative symptom. No nausea, no ANYTHING. I don't know if I am just lucky, or if having a nice build-up of HEALTHY nutrients was the key. I love that there is nothing synthetic about these ingredients, all are plant based. Some people report they smell or taste strong, but I really have not noticed - they smell natural to me? But, then again, the DHA (fish oil based) also do not bother me in any way either. Regardless, my Doctors seem pretty happy with all my labs, and I feel good, so I think these are a win!
I love these prenatals! I began taking Baby & Me while ttc and am now 23 weeks pregnant and continue to take them. I'm not sure if these have anything to do with the fact that I have had absolutely no negative pregnancy symptoms (no morning sickness, no constipation, no headaches, etc.), but I will continue to take them because they work really well for me!

Nobi Thyroid Support has all the ingredients that I look for when purchasing help for my hypothyroidism. I always look for Bladderwrack which is a type of seaweed used for thyroid disorders. It is known to help with obesity, arthritis, hardening of the arteries, constipation and anxiety which all have a tendency to accompany hypothyroidism. It also contains Ashwaghanda which is commonly used for anxiety and trouble sleeping. It is a plant whose root or berry is used to make medicine that contains chemicals that may calm the brain, lower blood pressure and decrease inflammation. Nobi Nutrition Thyroid Support also contains 300 mg. L-Tyrosine which has been shown to promote weight loss when combined with cayenne, green tea, caffeine and calcium. It has also been used to combat stress. The serving size is 2 capsules daily preferably with meals. With 60 capsules per bottle, you will have 1 month's supply. I take one midmorning and midafternoon for added energy when needed most.
I have been looking for years for something to help with my sluggish thyroid. Getting older has zapped my energy to nil, and I just felt sleepy all of the time. Well I can across Thyroid Support and was like, what have I got to lose. The first week has been amazing, no more sluggishness, lots of energy and I'm not having as many hot flashes. Finally something natural without the worries of a prescription. Easy to swallow, stay energized for hours...does not smell or leaves you gassy. This is def a must if you do not want or refuse to take hormone supplements, as I have. This is def a game changer on the market.
This thyroid supplement has provided excellent results. I find it to have made a huge improvement in my energy level and my ability to lose weight. I have been struggling with losing weight for months and could never get down more than a pound or two without gaining it all back despite my efforts to eat well and exercise. I find my self sleeping better and feel more rested and relaxed. I have no negative side effects whatsoever. I am completely happy with this product.
