Which Shilajit Gummy Flavor Reigns Supreme? Need Your Votes!
So I've been on the shilajit gummy train for a few months now, and I gotta say, the berry flavor is bomb! But the mango one? Yuck. Tastes like soap to me. I'm about to order again and want to try something new. What's the consensus on the best flavor? I trust you guys here more than the marketing hype.
Greg, I feel you! My kids and I have tried all of them, and we're split. My youngest loves the orange cream (reminds them of a creamsicle), but my partner and I prefer the mixed berry. We've found that the citrus ones have a bit of a zing that some folks might not dig. If you're paleo, maybe try the plain or something without added sugar? Just a thought.
From a chemistry standpoint, the flavor additives can interact with the active compounds, but that's marketing. I've done a blind taste test with a few gym buddies - the most neutral is probably the unflavored one, but if you want a recommendation, the 'tropical' flavor seems to be the most balanced. It's not too sweet, and the aftertaste is minimal. Just my two cents.
Thanks for the input! The tropical one sounds interesting. @HealthHacker673, I'll check the ingredients - I usually avoid extra sugar, but the gummies are a treat for me. @AlphaAdam, I appreciate the science, but I still need it to taste good. Might just order tropical and see. If it's a bust, I'll stick to berry.
