Gummy vitamins and supplements have gained popularity in recent years, offering a tasty alternative to traditional pills and capsules. They come in a variety of flavors and are often marketed as a fun and easy way to get your daily dose of essential nutrients. But are they really as beneficial as they seem? It depends on the gummy!

 

As convenient as they seem, all gummy supplements are not created equal. Gummy supplements can have several disadvantages. The biggest one – sugar! Many gummies on the market owe their flavor to sugar. If you check the ingredients, they will have cane sugar, corn syrup or other sugars listed as the first ingredient. Sugar isn’t good for us and we know it!  Refined sugars are bad for your health and can lead to dental issues, weight gain, heart disease and other health concerns, not to mention the negative effects on our skin we’ve noted before on the Glomission!

 

Gummy vitamins and supplements can have less nutrient density than their pill counterparts. They may not contain as high a concentration of nutrients due to their limited size and volume. Some gummy vitamins may not provide a complete spectrum of vitamins and minerals. This incomplete formulation can potentially leave gaps in nutritional intake. Another con is the risk of overconsumption. Because they look and taste like candy, it’s easy to take too many (especially for children) which can result in toxicity from excessive vitamins or minerals.  

 

If you decide to incorporate gummy vitamins into your daily routine, it's essential to choose high-quality products with minimal added sugars and a comprehensive formulation – like the gummiceuticals from Glotrition. Yes - all Glotrition gummiceuticals are delicious but they are all science driven with real beauty wellness benefits. They are not candy! Glotrition gummies never have any added sugar and are always low calorie. And unlike many gummy supplements on the market that only use a sprinkle of active ingredients and have very little efficacy, Glotrition only uses clinically validated ingredients in proven effective amounts to give you true results. 

 

When you are evaluating whether or not to add a gummy supplement to your wellness routine, hear is what you should be looking for: 

• No sugar in any form. Many ingredients might sound ok but are actually sugars disguised with other words. (Did you know that there are more than 60 different names for sugar that are used on ingredient labels?) It’s important to do your homework!
• Well-known effective ingredients in significant amounts.
• New and innovative ingredients also in clinically effective amounts.
• Antioxidants to support the active ingredients effects.
• No added colors or other ingredients not needed. Flavor, color and freshness can be achieved with natural ingredients like those used in Glotrition’s formulas.
