Elderberry Gummies - Love the Berry Blast, HATE the Citrus Twist! What should I try next?
Hey all! So I'm totally obsessed with the Berry Blast elderberry gummies from Nature's Way - they're my go-to for immune support during marathon training season. But I made the mistake of trying their Citrus Twist flavor last week... yikes. Tasted like cleaning products! Anyone else have strong opinions on flavors? Looking for recs on what to buy next - I need something that doesn't make me gag mid-run!
lol i feel you on the citrus disaster! i tried that one too and it was like eating perfume. as a paleo guy, i'm picky about ingredients AND taste. my vote goes to the 'Wild Harvest' brand - their plain elderberry gummies are just sweetened with honey, no weird aftertaste. they're not as flashy as berry blast but they get the job done without artificial junk. plus they're compliant with my diet!
Honestly, I stick to the classic. All these newfangled flavors are just marketing. My grandmother used to make elderberry syrup, and the gummies that taste closest to that traditional, earthy berry flavor are the ones from HerbCo. No citrus, no blast-just pure elderberry. Sometimes the old ways are best, especially for something meant to support health.
omg EarthElias, I totally get the struggle! As a yoga instructor, I need my supplements to vibe with my whole wellness routine. I love the 'ZenBerry' elderberry gummies - they have a subtle lavender-infused berry flavor that's super calming. No citrus in sight! They're perfect for post-savasana. Maybe give those a try? Sending good energy your way for your next run!
