trying to get a health pack for my dad (70, hates pills, eats like trash) and also a 'performance' something for my buddy who lives at the gym. Any brands or specific combos? Budget < $50 each.

For your dad, look for a multivitamin + maybe a calcium/vitamin D gummy. I get my dad SmartyPants or Nature Made. For the gym bro, maybe a recovery blend with magnesium/zinc? Garden of Life has some sport ones.

watch the sugar content! My dad has diabetes - I got him Vitafusion sugar-free. For your friend, check if they do IF - some gummies have 3g sugar each, can mess up a fast. I like SugarBear for low carb.

For the busy gym guy, Olly Active gummies are decent. For your dad, maybe a 'brain health' gummy like Neuriva? My mom takes them. Just make sure they don't have gelatin if they're vegetarian.
