What's in every serving: lutein and zeaxanthin, methylfolate and vitamin B12
- Lutein · 10 mg, zeaxanthin · 2 mg — two carotenoids; the zeaxanthin comes from marigold flower extract. Daily Values aren't established for either.

Ask your doctor before you take Live Active Core Daily, and don't take other vitamin D supplements with it unless your doctor advises it.
- Calcium · 200 mg — as calcium citrate. That's 15% DV, so it doesn't cover a day's calcium on its own.

Food and liver: Live Active Core Daily contains green tea extract and turmeric extract with black pepper extract (piperine). Take with food. Don't use if you have a liver problem.

Amounts match the Supplement Facts panel on our label. % Daily Values here are calculated from those amounts, so a few differ from current packaging. The current bottle label lists folate at 100% DV; the correct figure is 170%, and the label will be corrected at its next printing. Vitamin A and vitamin B12 each appear here as one total of the two forms the label lists on separate lines. Ingredient and blend names here describe what each one contains; current packaging uses earlier names.

What's in Live Active Core Daily?
Each 6-capsule serving has 13 vitamins and 10 minerals with no added iron, plus 10 mg lutein and 2 mg zeaxanthin. The vitamins include 680 mcg DFE folate as L-5-MTHF, 160 mcg vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin, 60 mcg vitamin K2 and 125 mcg (5,000 IU) vitamin D3, which is above the adult upper limit (see the vitamin D question below). It also has plant extracts, amino acids and digestive enzymes. Every amount is listed in the Supplement Facts.
Is Live Active Core Daily a multivitamin with lutein and zeaxanthin?
Yes. Each 6-capsule serving has 10 mg lutein and 2 mg zeaxanthin. The zeaxanthin comes from marigold flower extract. Daily Values aren't established for either.
Is Live Active Core Daily a multivitamin for adults over 50?
Yes. It's a multivitamin and multimineral for men and women, including adults 50 and over, with no added iron. It has 200 mg calcium (15% DV), so it doesn't cover a day's calcium on its own; compare labels if you take other supplements. It's formulated for adults and isn't intended for children.
Is Live Active Core Daily a methylated multivitamin?
It uses methylated forms of folate and vitamin B12. Its folate is L-5-MTHF (methylfolate), and 100 mcg of its 160 mcg vitamin B12 is methylcobalamin; the other 60 mcg is adenosylcobalamin, a coenzyme form of B12. Vitamin B6 is pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (P5P) and B2 is riboflavin 5′-phosphate, their coenzyme forms. Thiamin comes as benfotiamine, pantothenic acid as pantethine and niacin as nicotinic acid.
Why 6 capsules, and can I split them?
The amounts in the Supplement Facts add up to more than 2 grams, which is too much for one or two capsules. One serving is 6 capsules, and every amount in the Supplement Facts is for all 6. You can take them all at once, or 3 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon, with food. Don't take more than 6 capsules a day.
Does Live Active Core Daily contain iron?
No iron is added. If you need iron, ask your doctor which product fits.
How much vitamin D is in it, and is that too much?
Each 6-capsule serving has 125 mcg (5,000 IU) of vitamin D3, 625% of the Daily Value. That's above the 100 mcg (4,000 IU) daily upper limit for adults, so ask your doctor before you take it, and don't add other vitamin D supplements unless your doctor advises it. Other Mother Earth Labs products with vitamin D include OrganiEarth, pH Balancer and Comprehensive Core capsules (125 mcg a serving each) and MagnesiumER (25 mcg a serving). That isn't a full list, so check the Supplement Facts of every other supplement you take for vitamin D.
Can I take it with other Mother Earth Labs supplements?
Live Active Core Daily is meant to be your one daily multivitamin. Don't take it on the same day as another multivitamin, such as Comprehensive Core, Essential MultiVitamins, pH Balancer or OrganiEarth, unless your doctor advises it. Don't add MagnesiumER: a full serving adds 350 mg magnesium and 25 mcg vitamin D3, which would bring you to 550 mg of supplemental magnesium (the adult upper limit is 350 mg) and 150 mcg of vitamin D (the limit is 100 mcg). With any other product, add up the vitamin D, zinc and magnesium; for example, SportActive adds 100 mg magnesium per stick.
Can I take it with medication?
Ask your doctor first if you take any prescription medicine, especially a blood thinner such as warfarin, a thiazide diuretic (water pill), a statin, an antibiotic, a bisphosphonate or thyroid medicine. Live Active Core Daily contains vitamin K2, 125 mcg vitamin D3, calcium, magnesium, zinc, iodine, turmeric extract with black pepper extract, green tea extract and milk thistle, which can affect how some medicines work.
Does Live Active Core Daily contain caffeine?
It contains 50 mg green tea extract, a natural source of caffeine. The label doesn't state a caffeine amount.
When should I take it?
With a meal. Several of its nutrients are fat-soluble, and the green tea extract is best taken with food. Take all 6 capsules at once, or 3 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon.
How many capsules can I take a day?
Up to 6, which is one serving. Each serving already has 125 mcg (5,000 IU) of vitamin D3, above the 100 mcg (4,000 IU) adult upper limit, so don't take more than one serving a day.
How long does a bottle last?
A bottle holds 180 capsules, so it lasts 30 days at 6 capsules a day. At $48, that's $1.60 a day.
How does the subscription work?
Choose how often it renews: every 1, 2, 3 or 4 months. Subscription orders are 10% off: $1.44 a serving instead of $1.60. It renews automatically until you cancel. Each renewal is $43.20 a bottle before any shipping or tax.
Can biotin affect lab tests?
Biotin can affect some lab test results. Live Active Core Daily has 300 mcg of biotin per serving. Tell your doctor and the lab about every supplement you take before a blood test.
What is the capsule made of?
The capsule shell is vegetarian. We don't call the whole product vegetarian yet, because the carriers used in a few vitamin and carotenoid raw materials are still being documented.
What does it taste like, and what sweetens it?
The label lists no flavors and no sweeteners, and the capsule is the only other ingredient it lists.
Is Live Active Core Daily certified organic?
No. Live Active Core Daily is not a certified organic product.
Where is it made?
Live Active Core Daily is made in the USA with globally sourced ingredients.

Amounts match the Supplement Facts panel on our label. % Daily Values here are calculated from those amounts, so a few differ from current packaging. The current bottle label lists folate at 100% DV; the correct figure is 170%, and the label will be corrected at its next printing. Vitamin A and vitamin B12 each appear here as one total of the two forms the label lists on separate lines. Ingredient and blend names here describe what each one contains; current packaging uses earlier names.

What's in Live Active Core Daily?
Each 6-capsule serving has 13 vitamins and 10 minerals with no added iron, plus 10 mg lutein and 2 mg zeaxanthin. The vitamins include 680 mcg DFE folate as L-5-MTHF, 160 mcg vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin, 60 mcg vitamin K2 and 125 mcg (5,000 IU) vitamin D3, which is above the adult upper limit (see the vitamin D question below). It also has plant extracts, amino acids and digestive enzymes. Every amount is listed in the Supplement Facts.
Is Live Active Core Daily a multivitamin with lutein and zeaxanthin?
Yes. Each 6-capsule serving has 10 mg lutein and 2 mg zeaxanthin. The zeaxanthin comes from marigold flower extract. Daily Values aren't established for either.
Is Live Active Core Daily a multivitamin for adults over 50?
Yes. It's a multivitamin and multimineral for men and women, including adults 50 and over, with no added iron. It has 200 mg calcium (15% DV), so it doesn't cover a day's calcium on its own; compare labels if you take other supplements. It's formulated for adults and isn't intended for children.
Is Live Active Core Daily a methylated multivitamin?
It uses methylated forms of folate and vitamin B12. Its folate is L-5-MTHF (methylfolate), and 100 mcg of its 160 mcg vitamin B12 is methylcobalamin; the other 60 mcg is adenosylcobalamin, a coenzyme form of B12. Vitamin B6 is pyridoxal 5′-phosphate (P5P) and B2 is riboflavin 5′-phosphate, their coenzyme forms. Thiamin comes as benfotiamine, pantothenic acid as pantethine and niacin as nicotinic acid.
Why 6 capsules, and can I split them?
The amounts in the Supplement Facts add up to more than 2 grams, which is too much for one or two capsules. One serving is 6 capsules, and every amount in the Supplement Facts is for all 6. You can take them all at once, or 3 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon, with food. Don't take more than 6 capsules a day.
Does Live Active Core Daily contain iron?
No iron is added. If you need iron, ask your doctor which product fits.
How much vitamin D is in it, and is that too much?
Each 6-capsule serving has 125 mcg (5,000 IU) of vitamin D3, 625% of the Daily Value. That's above the 100 mcg (4,000 IU) daily upper limit for adults, so ask your doctor before you take it, and don't add other vitamin D supplements unless your doctor advises it. Other Mother Earth Labs products with vitamin D include OrganiEarth, pH Balancer and Comprehensive Core capsules (125 mcg a serving each) and MagnesiumER (25 mcg a serving). That isn't a full list, so check the Supplement Facts of every other supplement you take for vitamin D.
Can I take it with other Mother Earth Labs supplements?
Live Active Core Daily is meant to be your one daily multivitamin. Don't take it on the same day as another multivitamin, such as Comprehensive Core, Essential MultiVitamins, pH Balancer or OrganiEarth, unless your doctor advises it. Don't add MagnesiumER: a full serving adds 350 mg magnesium and 25 mcg vitamin D3, which would bring you to 550 mg of supplemental magnesium (the adult upper limit is 350 mg) and 150 mcg of vitamin D (the limit is 100 mcg). With any other product, add up the vitamin D, zinc and magnesium; for example, SportActive adds 100 mg magnesium per stick.
Can I take it with medication?
Ask your doctor first if you take any prescription medicine, especially a blood thinner such as warfarin, a thiazide diuretic (water pill), a statin, an antibiotic, a bisphosphonate or thyroid medicine. Live Active Core Daily contains vitamin K2, 125 mcg vitamin D3, calcium, magnesium, zinc, iodine, turmeric extract with black pepper extract, green tea extract and milk thistle, which can affect how some medicines work.
Does Live Active Core Daily contain caffeine?
It contains 50 mg green tea extract, a natural source of caffeine. The label doesn't state a caffeine amount.
When should I take it?
With a meal. Several of its nutrients are fat-soluble, and the green tea extract is best taken with food. Take all 6 capsules at once, or 3 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon.
How many capsules can I take a day?
Up to 6, which is one serving. Each serving already has 125 mcg (5,000 IU) of vitamin D3, above the 100 mcg (4,000 IU) adult upper limit, so don't take more than one serving a day.
How long does a bottle last?
A bottle holds 180 capsules, so it lasts 30 days at 6 capsules a day. At $48, that's $1.60 a day.
How does the subscription work?
Choose how often it renews: every 1, 2, 3 or 4 months. Subscription orders are 10% off: $1.44 a serving instead of $1.60. It renews automatically until you cancel. Each renewal is $43.20 a bottle before any shipping or tax.
Can biotin affect lab tests?
Biotin can affect some lab test results. Live Active Core Daily has 300 mcg of biotin per serving. Tell your doctor and the lab about every supplement you take before a blood test.
What is the capsule made of?
The capsule shell is vegetarian. We don't call the whole product vegetarian yet, because the carriers used in a few vitamin and carotenoid raw materials are still being documented.
What does it taste like, and what sweetens it?
The label lists no flavors and no sweeteners, and the capsule is the only other ingredient it lists.
Is Live Active Core Daily certified organic?
No. Live Active Core Daily is not a certified organic product.
Where is it made?
Live Active Core Daily is made in the USA with globally sourced ingredients.
