Base Control

Works great for me! Makes you pee neon yellow, due to the high amount of vitamin B in the supplement. Check the label before you buy because some of the vitamins may be too high for your daily intake. Overall, it helps with period cramps. I don't have bad cramps, but sometimes I do have subtle annoying ones, and this seems to help ease it so I feel less irritated. It does have a weird taste and smell, but just drink it with something sweet or something that can mask the smell. Did not experience any negative side effects from this aside from peeing neon yellow (due to high vitamin B).

I love the cost effectiveness of these multivitamins. They pack more per serving than most. I felt more energetic after taking them for a few days and they caused no stomach discomfort even when I’ve taken them on an empty stomach. They are worth every penny and are my go-to.

Great multivitamin I was feeling very fatigue and these have helped so much, does have a smell but I take it quickly !

Not for those with MTHFR Gene Mutation Issues. I started taking this vitamin about a year ago and really liked it. however, I was having issues that generally are linked to b12 and b9 deficiencies. Thats when I found out I have an uncommon, but not rare, manifestation of a gene mutation called MTHFR. It means that my body cannot process folic acid (a form of b9) into folate (the natural form of b9). Unfortunately that means that this vitamin was doing more harm than good for me, and I had to switch to a vitamin that contains methylated folate, which is better for my issues. Methylated folate isn't a revolutionary thing, and is actually more absorb-able for all people, so I think that the manufacturer should add it to this otherwise great vitamin. Other than that, this vitamin is good but smells pretty bad, I understand thats because its uncoated which is actually a benefit. Take that as you will.

Great every day multi-vitamin. They didn't leave an after taste and the packages all arrived without any broken pills. The levels of each vitamin seemed on par with other brands.

I started using a few different formulas of HUM vitamins, and Base Control is a wonderful place to start! It's a complete multi-vitamin formulated for women to make sure you're getting all daily nutrients that you might not be getting from your food. This one is easy to swallow and while there's a slight odor, it's not that off-putting and the benefits are worth it! If you haven't tried the HUM line, give them a shot - highly recommend.

Made me super gassy. Uncomfortably gassy, so I didn’t get to take it long enough to see benefits.

One of the Best Multivitamins I've Used I've tried it all—whole food-based vitamins, natural capsule forms, fermented sources—everything you'd find in the multivitamin section at Whole Foods. Unfortunately, none of them worked for me; they caused digestive distress, hives, headaches… you name it. Then I found a multivitamin by Simple Truth (a Kroger brand) on Vitacost, and it suited me perfectly—but sadly, it was discontinued. I knew what ingredients worked for me, so I kept searching and was lucky to find HUM Base Control. When I checked the ingredients, they were identical to the Simple Truth formula—even the inactive ones. It was a perfect match! Now my whole family uses this vitamin. Buying directly from HUM requires a pricey subscription (about $38), so I'm really glad Amazon carries it. One tip: I’ve found that taking the vitamin mid-meal during breakfast—not before or after—prevents any nausea and helps with absorption. I feel more energized, and even my teenage daughter notices the difference on the days she takes it. Overall, this is a great multivitamin. Thanks to HUM for making something that truly works.
