Why do gummy vitamins have to be candy? OLLY's going too far?
I just got the OLLY Goodbye Stress gummies and they're basically candy. I know it's for the taste but come on, 2g of sugar per gummy? Might as well eat a handful of jelly beans. I'm trying to be healthier and this feels like a step backward. Anyone else feel the same?
I hear you, but honestly, I'm just happy I can take my supplements without gagging. Back in my day, we had those giant horse pills and fish oil burps. These gummies are like a treat after a stressful day. And it's not like I'm eating the whole bottle, just two a day. A little sugar is fine if it means I actually remember to take them.
I get the concern, but I actually switched TO OLLY because of the taste. I tried the pills and they made me nauseous. Plus, these have L-theanine and GABA which are proven to chill you out. If a bit of sugar helps me be consistent, I'm all in. There are sugar-free options if you're that worried, but they taste like chalk.
I guess it's about balance. Maybe I'm overreacting. I just wish they'd use a natural sweetener or something. But yeah, I'll probably keep buying them because they do work. It's just a guilty pleasure, lol.
Hey, at least it's not like those hard candies that get stuck in your teeth. These are gone in a minute. And they're berry flavored, which is way better than the weird herbal aftertaste of other stress supplements. So I'll take my 'candy' and chill, honestly.
