Multi-Vitamin Elite Ingredients
A line-by-line look at what's inside Thorne Multi-Vitamin Elite A.M. & P.M. (VM114NC), including active components and excipients.
The complete ingredient profile (A.M. and P.M. bottles together) is published on Thorne's product page and lot-level documentation. Excipients are minimal and consistent with the broader Thorne catalog.
Active Ingredients
Active constituents flagged from a safety perspective:
- Vitamin K2 — the warfarin interaction lives here; mandates anticoagulation-clinic disclosure
- Calcium and magnesium — the thyroid, bisphosphonate, and antibiotic chelation interactions live here; mandates dose-timing separation
- Methylfolate and methylcobalamin — the methotrexate interaction and methylation-overstimulation reactions live here
- Vitamin A — the historical multivitamin-toxicity concern, mitigated by the mixed-carotenoid-plus-retinyl form at modest dose
- Vitamin D3 — long-term-accumulation concern, mitigated by routine 25(OH)D monitoring
- Polyphenols (green-tea catechins, quercetin) — theoretical MAOI interaction at higher doses, low clinical significance at the present dose
Other Ingredients (Excipients)
Excipient profile: hypromellose capsule shell, microcrystalline cellulose, leucine, silicon dioxide. No magnesium stearate, titanium dioxide, synthetic colorants, or shellac glaze. The shorter excipient list reduces the surface area for idiosyncratic excipient-related reactions compared to many mass-market multivitamins.
Allergens and Sensitivities
Multi-Vitamin Elite is gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, and uses a plant-derived hypromellose capsule. The green-tea extract is decaffeinated. Vegetarian status: confirmed. Vegan status: dependent on current vitamin D3 source — verify per lot. NSF Certified for Sport status adds athletic-banned-substance testing. Documented allergies to any specific constituent (quercetin, specific carotenoids, etc.) warrant individual review of the label.

How Ingredients Compare to Similar Products
From a safety perspective, Multi-Vitamin Elite's risk profile is comparable to other practitioner-tier comprehensive multivitamins (Pure Encapsulations O.N.E., Designs for Health Twice Daily Multi). The chronobiological split modestly increases the interaction-management complexity (e.g., the P.M. mineral dose-timing relative to thyroid hormone) versus single-dose multivitamins. The methylation-aware B-vitamin forms modestly increase the risk of methylation-related neuropsychiatric reactions versus folic-acid-based products. The iron-free design eliminates the iron-overdose concern relevant to pediatric multivitamins.
