Great Product
I’ve used this Trace Minerals product for about two years, and I like it. I think the percentages of calcium/magnesium/zinc are good. The added D3 is a plus too. In the past, I had a problem with thinning bones, especially in my back and hips. My last bone density test showed a bit of bone growth. That was good news to me. I noticed that some reviewers found that the product was thick and difficult to mix. I haven’t found that to be an issue. The directions say to “SHAKE VIGOROUSLY,” and I do–a good 30 seconds before I pour it in the lid. I’ve received several flavors and I liked them all. Piña colada is very good. I recommend Trace Minerals.

Mostly…Easy to use
I’ve been using this product for several months, and generally speaking, I like it. It’s hard to tell how much of the ingredients you are getting as you must shake (and I mean shake hard) the bottle. I noticed with this last delivery, the liquid was some what clear (cloudy, but not white…like whole mike white). So, I poured some in a measuring cup to create room in the bottle and shook again and there was a solid mass that broke loose and started mixing. So, I’m guessing, that the vitamins had coagulated and become a solid at the bottom of the bottle. I’m now in the process of mixing, and remixing (or re-shaking) to make sure it’s all consistently mixed. Beyond this one-time issue, I think it’s easy to use and tastes fine. I mix with Almond milk and Trace’s Vitamin D & K2.

Good for sleeping at night if take it consistently
BF has been taking this product for couple of years now. We used to buy it from Sprouts but the price on Amazon is a lot better with subscription. It smells very good and its not hard to swallow. This supposedly if taken consistently, you will fall asleep faster and also deeper, no waking up in the middle of the night.

Gloppy and taste not good anymore
I have purchased this product in the past from local stores, but found the pricing on Amazon good and shipping convenient, so I started ordering it from Amazon. I’m not sure what happened, but over the past year (my two more recent orders–I don’t always use this so I have some distance between shipments) this stuff gets gloppy really quickly to where you can’t fully use the product. The first time this happened, I didn’t notice until I felt I ran out of product sooner than I should have. It also seemed watery. Low and behold, a big, tough glob of this got stuck in the bottom. I tried adding more water and vigorously shaking to help loosen it up and get more productbut was only mildy successful. The rest was stuck. Since I recycle my bottles, it took quite a bit of effort to get the glob out: I soaked the bottle in soap twice, then had to poke at it with a knife while hitting the bottle–with cap on–against the floor to get it all out.I figured I may have had a bad one, or spent too much time using it after opening it, even though there is no “use within [this time period]” statement on the bottle. I ordered another and got smart by making sure I shook it like there’s no tomorrow before pouring a capful, then stored it, cap on, upside down in the fridge. While I could get product out, it was gloppy and too disgusting for me to drink. Instead of being the consistency of milk, it was like drinking a pasty, curdled milk. I had to spit it out or I would have thrown it up. The product does not expire till next year.Also, in the earlier stages of this latest bottle, while it was the expected consistency, it was too much in flavor, essentially tasting gross–keep in mind it’s “pina colada”…I like pina coladas, but not this version of one. Despite the more pronounced flavor, it was still manageable to drink since it wasn’t gloppy for the first two doses. Once it got gloppy, it was too disgusting for my mouth.The pics and video I have are opening it right after having it upside down in the fridge–the product is staying at the top of the bottle as a result. Once I pushed the glob down with my knife, it goes back down to the base of the bottle. I had a hard time recording this on my own so I got some more product out with my knife to really show how gloppy this is (the last two pictures).I have no choice but to toss this. Either Amazon is not consistently pumping out a good shipment of this product or the company is doing poorly with its formulation. Unfortunately, they only have a “feel the difference” guarantee. I guess perhaps I could state to them that their guarantee is null–and so a refund is due– since the product isn’t consumable, and therefor, I’m unable to feel the difference because I simply can’t consume it. I’m not sure if I want to bother since I already got rid of the bottle awhile ago. I’ll certainly update if I do.Lastly, there is 1mg of ITM iron in this. I’m not sure what ITM is or why they put iron in this type of supplement.Fortunately, I have cal/mag/zinc caplets by Solaray in storage, so I’m not without my nighttime need of calcium and magnesium. While I’m not a fan of taking 4 caplets each time (to get almost the same amount of cal/mag–1000mg/500mg–as Trace Minerals does in a cap–1200mg/600mg), the caplets are at least consumable.
