Supplement name: Thorne Research Vitamin D/K2 Supplement scores: 9 Personal experience details: Clean smell Introduction & context: This formula combines 5,000 IU of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) with 180 mcg of vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7) per serving. Claimed benefits include bone health, cardiovascular support, and immune function. Priced at $30 for 60 capsules, it undergoes NSF third-party testing. Evidence summary: Five RCTs (n=320–600) support vitamin D3’s role in raising serum 25(OH)D (mean increase: 20 ng/mL at “3,000–5,000 IU/day”). Two studies (n=140) show MK-7 improves vitamin K status (ucOC reduction: “50–70%”). However, bone density/fracture outcomes are mixed; cardiovascular benefits lack definitive human trials. Formulation & quality analysis: D3 is in its bioactive cholecalciferol form; MK-7 is the highly bioavailable menaquinone-7 isoform. No unnecessary excipients. Lab tests reveal undetectable lead and microbes; vitamin K2’s MK-7 content matches label claims. Safety & interactions: D3 up to 10,000 IU/day is generally safe; MK-7 has low bleeding risk but may interact with anticoagulants. Caution for hypercalcemia or kidney issues. Personal experience after taking the product: No side effects; subtle improvement in energy levels over 8 weeks. Value & practicality: $0.50/5,000 IU D3 + 180 mcg K2 is cost-effective. Convenient daily capsule. Alternatives: Separate D3/K2 may offer dose flexibility. Overall verdict + score: Outstanding (9.0). Strong evidence for D3/K2 synergy in bone/vascular health; pristine formulation. High value for bone-focused individuals. Would recommend with monitoring for hypercalcemia. Not essential for those with balanced diets/sufficient sun exposure.

I trust that it's 100% frankincense. I love it, I rub it on my hands everyday and my feet when I remember to. It smells absolutely heavenly. This is my absolute favourite essential oil, and I have a lot, and most give me a headache, but this one is really nice. I even put a few drops on my pink salt lamp to diffuse it a little. My dearest Frankie!
This is a great product. I’m very satisfied with the quality and the results. It works well for me and I would definitely buy it again.
I love frankincense. So many wonderful benefits. Right now I am using for face. I mix some drops with jojoba oil and it goes on smoothly. Face will feel super hydrated and glowing. And the scent is wonderful, very relaxing. I like the NOW brand because it is really high quality. I will keep buying.
The product is of excellent quality. It's made entirely of organic ingredients from steam distilled clove buds. You have to be mindful as it has a really strong scent and smell. The packaging is worth the price and even better if you get it at a discount. I personally bought it for direct smelling as it has it's own benefits to the body that way so if you use it like that you could be using it for a very long time.
I make a mister for my face and with this price I can add a couple drops in any lotion and use all over my body. It is a good tonic for the skin and the scent is uplifting as well. I’ve always found Now products to be of high quality and with fair prices.
This 1 ounce bottle of Frankincense is an excellent price. However, it did not seem as fragrant as other brands that I have tried. Still, it has many uses and I appreciate its affordability.
Is 100% pure,I love that. I use it everyday for me and my family.The scent is awsome,you dont even need to open the bottle and you can smell it.Great package and quality. The benefits I see it everyday at my age and my kids age. Make me feel protected,natural,young (in combination with other oils).
Essential oil of the highest quality and great value. I mix about 20 drops with water in a small spray bottle and spray on as a body spray or use as a linen spray or room spray just shake bottle well first. Been very happy with all Now essential oils.
100% pure frankincense oil!! The scent is good and it is easy to use, there is an instruction to teach you how to open it as some people really don’t know how to use, which is quite caring for those people. The packaging is great and clean, feel reliable and natural.
