Hey everyone! So I've been taking probiotic gummies for a few months now to help with digestion, and I'm obsessed with the Berry Blast flavor - it's like a little treat after lunch! But I made the mistake of buying the Tropical Twist variety pack last time, and I literally can't stand it. The pineapple-coconut combo tastes so artificial to me, and now I have a whole bottle I'm forcing myself to finish. What's the consensus on the best flavor? I'm thinking of trying Citrus Splash next, but I'm worried it might be too tart. My kids (8 and 10) steal my Berry Blast ones if I don't hide them, so kid-approved is a plus!

omg I feel you on the Tropical Twist! I tried it last week and it totally messed with my mindful eating practice - the aftertaste lingered through my whole meditation session. Not cool. I've been doing the Mixed Berry ones (similar to Berry Blast maybe?) and they're pretty grounding. Have you considered the Unflavored/Neutral option? I know it sounds boring, but sometimes simplicity helps me stay present with the health benefits rather than chasing flavor. Just a thought from a meditation newbie trying to be more intentional!

LOL @ forcing yourself to finish the bottle - been there! As someone who's constantly traveling between co-working spaces, I need my probiotics but hate carrying gross-tasting stuff. Berry Blast is solid, but if you want to level up, try the Raspberry Lemonade. It's got a nice tang without being overwhelming, and it doesn't have that weird sweetener aftertaste some brands have. Pro tip: check the sugar content though - some 'flavorful' ones can sneak in extra carbs. Citrus Splash is okay but kinda boring IMO. What brand are you using?

Thanks for the replies! @VitalVince850 I never thought about unflavored - that's actually a really mindful approach! Though I worry my kids would never touch them haha. @KetoKevin I'm using GutGlow brand (the one in the purple bottle). Their Berry Blast has 2g sugar per serving which I'm okay with for the quality. Raspberry Lemonade sounds promising! Do you find it's too sweet? My daughter is picky about anything too sugary-tasting. Maybe I'll get a small pack to test before committing. Anyone tried the Apple Cinnamon version? Saw it online but reviews were mixed.

Apple Cinnamon sounds like it would taste like potpourri tbh 😅 But hey, maybe it's amazing! If you try it, let us know. I'm sticking with my mixed berries for now - consistency helps my routine. Good luck with the decision!
