Dr. Berg Nutritional Yeast Tablets – Natural B12 Added - All 8 B Vitamin Complex – Organic Vanilla Flavor - 270 Vegan Tablets Dietary Supplements

I love the flavor of yeast, so I eat all 7 tablets at once, which is the recommended amount. They’re a treat for me. A natural source of B vitamins, these are not fortified synthetically. That’s why 7 tablets are the recommended daily dose. The tabs are not slick and kind of large. I wouldn’t try to swallow them. If you hate the taste of yeast, then these are not for you. I believe B vitamins aid the skin and help with mood when one is deficient. I order them regularly.

I bought these because they’re loaded with B vitamins and they were chewable. But they are very hard to chew so what I do is break them up with my mortar and pestle so that they are easier to chew. Make sure you have water available as they will dry out your mouth quickly But otherwise a great product.

I started taking this product at the same time that I started taking other vitamins so I cannot see exactly how it is working however, I do feel a lot better and I believe that this is a good product worth buying you chew the tablets they kind a taste like vanilla they kind of stick to your teeth but if you eat them with food that goes away quickly I think you chew them for a better absorption in the gut. I’m not really sure I’m pretty sure that this is the bottle that does in fact, say that you should chew the tablets you can take up to seven a day I’ve only been taking three a day, if you are low on this vitamin, you were also low on other B vitamins and possibly vitamin D as well and maybe zinc also so make sure that you are getting a complete panel of blood test not just a standard regular blood test because that won’t always show vitamin deficiencies. I paid a company to send me over to LabCorp to get a 28 panel blood test done and I’ve always got two blood test done every year at the VA clinic and those blood test never showed that I was deficient in vitamins, but is 28 panel that I had done at LabCorp showed my deficiencies and it also showed my testosterone deficiency , so I highly recommend taking vitamins because I believe a lot of people are vitamin deficient and the testing that they do at most doctors office only looks for total vitamins or total testosterone or total thyroid. It does not look for individual levels so it is always best to ask for a complete panel, and it’s always best to ask for a copy of the results and see if they actually broke down each test or if they only took one of each test.

Update: I have found that if I grind them up with my ninja & mix it with pineapple juice. It is bearable. Looks like I will be able to order again.The product does make me feel a lot better. However, I struggle getting it down. I have tried everything. I have mixed it with just about everything I can think of to dull the flavor. Mixed it with my smoothies, juices etc etc. I can not chew it. Right now I have been grinding it up in my ninja mixing it with water or pineapple juice & taking it like a shot. This coming from a person that can take stuff like paraguard right out of the dropper. I still struggle with the flavor. I really want to love this product. Also 7 pills? I can't even swallow them. I about choked because I tried to swallow one and it got stuck in my throat. I have honestly tried so hard with this product. Because it does help me feel better. Sadly I think I will have to give up on this product. I am trying to get through the bottle. At the very least to give the product a legit try. With the hopes of finding a way to get it down without struggling so much with the flavor. I haven't been bummed about not being able to take a supplement before. If you can get past the flavor it's worth the purchase.

The product arrived on time. No problems great product and great service.

The "Typical Profile for Nutritional Yeast" message on the back label makes me doubt why this is such a good way to get my B vitamins. While you are only getting 5% of the DV recommendation of Thiamin, you are getting 86% of your DV of Iron. If you have the condition that doesn't allow you to excrete Iron properly that could be a big issue for you. Please read the entire label to make sure you can safely consume this product since the ingredient list is a lot longer than just B vitamins. The capsules are chewable but awkward. I kept hoping I wouldn't break my crown when I broke them up with my teeth. They do get a little softer the longer they are in your mouth. The taste wasn't bad but I felt I needed to brush my teeth after crunching seven of these things. I didn't try to swallow them, they seemed way too big and coarse to swallow. I was happy to get to the bottom of the bottle and be done with it. If I purchase nutritional yeast again, I will go with the flakes and dissolve them in liquid. I am a big fan and listener of Br Berg but this isn't one of my favorites.

So I bought these because I have a great respect for Dr. Berg and his knowledge and honestly. I think they are well worth the price. As far as the tablet themselves, I don't think they are too big to swallow, but probably I wouldn't want one any larger as I have a hard time swallowing large tablets. That being said, you could always cut them in half easy. Even though the size is not too large, they would not be considered "slippery" or easy to "slide" down the throat given the texture of them. Someone wrote that they love the taste and chew on them all throughout the day. I would not say they are delicious by any means, but they are tolerable. Definitely not delicious, but not horrid either, just tolerable is the best word I can think of. So I just suck on one til it is gone, that is how I do it. I have other B complex vitamins so this was an addition to my current routine, so one or two a day is good for me.

Didn't notice any obvious result in terms of health but definitely didn't worse anything. Pretty big pills but not hard to swallow. No stomack upset - ever. Shipping was quick.
