Web ID: 20450099Disappointed
I only purchase Nature Made vitamins and have done so for many years for myself and my elderly mother. I have never felt the need to negatively review any of your products until now. I recently purchased your Magnesium Citrate gel caps and was astonished at the size of them. They are entirely too large, and having to take two of them for the recommended dose iis extremely hard to do. In fact, when I awoke this morning, it seemed as though I could still feel the gel cap sitting in my chest despite having 24 oz of water through the night. After purchasing the product and taking them for a few days, I navigated to your website and noticed that complaints from people of various ages about the size of the product have been expressed for a couple of years, with your reply being that you would notify the Product Team. With a brand as reputable as Nature Made, I am truly surprised and disappointed that nothing has been done to resolve this issue. On behalf of your loyal customers, reconsideration of this product design would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for being a loyal Nature Made consumer and for sharing your concern with the size of the product. Your feedback, and the feedback from others, is essential to drive meaningful change. I will make sure your message is elevated beyond a generic pass-along.
odd color and MUCH bigger than advertised
Why are they purple??? Is it necessary to add "colors" (not specified) and carmine to a natural compound? Why not keep it the color nature made it?? And as others have noted, it's really big. The image on their product page is false and misleading. I pasted a picture of an actual capsule on their product page. The actual size is more than 1 inch long and more than 1/4 inch wide, MUCH bigger than the image they show.

Very disappointed. These capsules are the biggest capsule/pill I have ever seen. They induce chocking unless you are able to swallow something large. Wish I had known before spending money on them.

Thank you for sharing your concern about the size of the product. In most cases, drinking water or juice when taking a pill is enough to help swallow comfortably. Unfortunately, this is not always the case, and again, we regret any inconvenience you may have experienced.
I'm sorry I took my first two soft gels and had trouble swallowing them! I wish I had of known how large they were and I would have ordered the gummies! !! I ordered these from my pharmacy because on my doctors order I needed to try these... I live alone so it really scared me, thought it was going to go down.

I dont trust this
I just bought this brand from a grocery store.. they are HUGE, and it recommends taking 2? Also, why is the casing made of beeswax or other material i literally had to saw open with a knife to reveal a yellow paste. I dont know if i can trust this, never took a huge medication called a soft gel that isnt see through. The casing isnt even dissolving in water after 30 minutes, not even soft. Is this plastic?

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience. Sorry to hear of your disappointment. Nature Made has updated the outside coating of our Magnesium product, which has caused a change in color. However, you are receiving the same great nutrients, which have not changed at all.
Why food coloring and soybean oil?
Giving it three stars because is USP Verified, but why does a supplement need soybean oil and food coloring, including carmine? We just want pure ingredients, no additives or highly processed oils please.
