I've been taking these for 6 years now, so I thought I'd finally write a review. There have been several times that I've run out for 2 or 3 months before re-stocking, and there are noticeable differences.
When not taking these I:
1. I lose a LOT more hair every day in the shower.
2. I bruise very easily.
3. My overall skin tone is much worse (esp. arms, legs, and face). Even with regular exercise, my skin looks saggy after I've been off these a week or so.
These 3 things alone keep me buying these, but they are also very gentle and do not upset my stomach, even if taken without food, and unlike many other vitamin supplements, these do not turn my pee green or neon yellow, so I like to think I am actually absorbing and using more of this supplement than I normally would. Finally, the price is good. For the price, you get 75 capsules, so a bottle last 2.5 months.
For reference and comparison, I am 44 years old, female, neither over nor underweight, and exercise about 3 times a week with daily walks thrown in for good measure. My diet is not fabulous, but not Standard American Diet either. I'm not vegan or vegetarian or any other special needs diet. I really like these. If you're on the fence, try them. Effects are not drastic, but they are noticeable. Especially if you stop taking them for a short time.
