Hey everyone! My dad's turning 65 and my buddy is a CrossFit nut. I want to get them a 'health pack' of vitamin gummies. Dad needs bone support, friend wants energy. Any recs for vitamin D gummies that actually work? I'm looking at brands that have clean ingredients.

For your dad, I'd recommend the 'Nature's Bounty Vitamin D3 1000 IU' gummies – they've been around and my mom swears by them for her bones. For your friend, maybe 'SmartyPants Adult Formula' because it has D3 plus K2 for energy metabolism. But if he's into high potency, 'Vital Proteins' has a good one with added zinc.

I'd go with 'Garden of Life mykind Organics Vitamin D3' – it's organic and has no junk. My dad takes them and his levels went up. For the gym rat, 'Now Foods Vitamin D3' is budget-friendly and I've used it whille traveling. But check if they prefer softgels over gummies?

For your dad, I'd look into a combo pack like 'Nordic Naturals Vitamin D3 Gummies' – they have a nice citrus taste and are potency. For your friend, maybe a 'multi' with D? But if just D, 'Life Extension Vitamin D3' is a classic. Just make sure they absorb it – I pair mine with a fatty snack.
