A convenient, tasty gummy Vitamin C option, but offers a lower dose and contains added sugars, making it less ideal for comprehensive daily supplementation.
These gummies provide 250mg of Vitamin C (as ascorbic acid) per serving. While highly convenient and enjoyable due to their taste and chewable form, they contain 5 grams of carbohydrates, likely from sugar, which is a significant drawback for daily consumption, especially for individuals concerned about sugar intake. The dosage is also half of many standard adult Vitamin C supplements. Online reviews consistently praise the taste and ease of use, but nutritionists would likely caution against the added sugar for routine supplementation, especially when more potent and sugar-free options are available. It primarily serves as a convenient alternative for basic, low-dose Vitamin C needs.
- Highly convenient and palatable gummy form, easy to take for adults and children.
- Good taste makes consistent intake enjoyable.
- Appeals to individuals who have difficulty swallowing pills.
- Lower dose (250mg) compared to most adult Vitamin C supplements.
- Contains 5 grams of sugar/carbohydrates per serving, which is undesirable for daily intake.
- Higher price per serving compared to traditional tablets/capsules.
- Ascorbic acid form is unbuffered and can be acidic.
- High sugar content may be a concern for individuals with diabetes, on ketogenic diets, or simply seeking to limit sugar intake.
- Keep out of reach of children to prevent overconsumption due to appealing taste.
