Health Gummies - Fad or not? Should you use them? Are they better or cheaper?
All the rage, or never heard of them?
Kids’ vitamin gummies have been around for decades, but now gummies are taking over the adult health market, from creatine to vitamin D and iron.

Searches for THC gummies surged 70% last year, and creatine gummies went from zero to trending in a matter of months. But are gummies actually a good delivery system, or just candy in disguise?

We break down the science, dosage concerns, sugar content, risks of mixing too many, and whether gummies are really worth it compared to pills.

Stay informed before you chew. 

The things that need to be considered:

  • How much is in them, i.e., the dose?
  • How much sugar or other nasties are in them? Does this vary by ingredient?
  • Limit? So, if I want a bit of D, creatine, and, say, an iron gummy, would I take three gummies daily? Is there a risk of overdose?
  • Are they cost-effective versus pills?


We review some of the data to keep you informed.
