Basic Nutrients IV by Thorne Research is a comprehensive multivitamin and
mineral supplement that contains copper and iron and features citrate mineral
chelates.
Basic Nutrients IV, like so many other Thorne Research products, is free of
pre-diluted ingredients and does not contain any hidden preservatives. It also
does not contain ingredients that can inhibit absorption, such as stearic acid
or magnesium stearate. Basic Nutrients IV does deliver the active forms of folic
acid (folinic acid and L-5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate) in a balanced 1:1 ratio, and
it provides you with the active and usable forms of vitamins B2 and B6.
Basic Nutrients IV features trace minerals that can only be found in Thorne
Research products as picolinates and Thorne’s patented form of chromium,
UltraChrome®.
The Thorne Research Difference
At the cornerstone of every manufacturer’s product line, you’ll find a
multiple vitamin and mineral supplement. At Thorne Research they believe that
this is where everyone should begin with their supplementation needs. This is
why the Basic Nutrients line of products contains all the vital nutrients your
body needs to function normally. Once you’re getting these nutrients in suitable
quantities, as you would from Basic Nutrients IV, then you can build on that
foundation to supplement with other vitamins, minerals or herbs that you feel
will have a positive impact on your health. One of the reasons that Thorne
Research is such a popular supplier is that the people responsible for
developing and creating the supplemetnts believe in using only the most pure and
bioavailable raw materials, and they do not believe in using any unnecessary
preservatives or additives.
Why Take a Multivitamin and Mineral Supplement?
If there’s one thing the experts like to disagree on – it’s nutrition; but
most will agree that the standard American diet, which is poor in fruits and
vegetables, is not sufficient on its own for our nutritional needs. Because of
this, most Americans should be taking a good vitamin and mineral supplement
daily. Recently, even the Journal of the American Medical Association (who isn’t
traditionally known to recommend dietary supplements) has agreed that everyone
should be taking a multiple vitamin and mineral supplement daily. This could
even be considered as dietary insurance to give you peace of mind that you’re
getting the right amount of vitamins and minerals every day – even if your diet
is poor. However, some research has shown that taking multivitamins can improve
your health even further when taken alongside a healthy diet that is rich in
fruits and vegetables.
Why Basic Nutrients IV
Basic Nutrients IV was designed to be a comprehensive solution to your
everyday vitamin and mineral needs. It provides magnesium, calcium and potassium
as well-absorbed citrate mineral chelates. Citric acid is not only used because
it is well absorbed, but it also has health benefits on its own.
In Basic Nutrients IV, you will also find iron, copper and complete range of
trace minerals, plus a full scope of highly absorbed vitamin co-factors along
with your basic vitamins and minerals.

Great product!
By Valerie from Connecticut on January 24, 2011
I have been using Basic Nutrients IV for about 5 years now and it is a very good solid multivitamin. It was recommended to me by a naturopathic I worked for and was a patient of. This naturopath also had been a pharmacist for many years prior to becoming a naturopath and only used products that were backed by scientific research so I know statistically it holds water. It is very high quality and Thorne is a brand I trust.
Pros:
Everything!
Cons:
Nothing I can think of!
I would recommend this item to a friend.

High Praise
By Karen from Chicago, IL on January 5, 2011
I've been taking Basic Nutrients IV Vegetarian Capsules for a year and a half. After researching the ingredients and comparing them to other multi-vitamin/mineral supplements in terms of quality - purity, quantity and "deliverability" - I have found this product clearly superior. My physician, who has practiced over 30 years and specializes in women's health and integrative medicine, recommends Thorne Research products wholeheartedly.
Pros:
The high standards of the manufacturer. Guaranteed purity, vegetable origin, absence of "filler" substances.
Cons:
Nothing.
I would recommend this item to a friend.
