Many people rely on vitamins as part of a supplemented diet or to combat specific deficiencies; however, taking pills, gummies and liquid forms of vitamins may present challenges for certain people.
Toddlers and children may struggle to swallow pills, while chewable tablets provide an easier alternative that contains simpler ingredients and is easy to absorb.
They’re Easy to Chew
Chewable vitamins are easy for the body to absorb. This is because they’re easily broken down in the mouth and digested through saliva, unlike pill supplements which require extensive digestion.
While pill supplements remain the preferred choice among adults, chewables have grown increasingly popular as children’s vitamins. Chewables offer children an easier route to getting all of the required nutrition in a fun form that they will love consuming! Plus they make life easier for vegans and vegetarians who require supplements but cannot add meat into their diet!
Chewables offer several advantages over gummies for digestion: They’re more stable, don’t lose potency as quickly due to heat exposure, and our R&D team can reach higher potency levels per gram of chewables than with gummies – which makes them suitable for applications ranging from multivitamins for adults and children’s chewable vitamins.
They’re Designed for Children
Most kids require adequate levels of vitamins and minerals from food sources. While eating a balanced diet should provide ample amounts of these essential nutrients, those who struggle to adhere to one may benefit from multivitamin supplements to fill any nutritional gaps that exist in their daily intake.
Gummy vitamins often contain too much sugar for good oral health. When food particles remain on teeth for too long, they feed bacteria that lead to tooth decay.
Chewable tablets provide an alternative that’s free from sugar, can be produced more reliably than gummies and offer higher dosage levels per serving with more flavor options – plus an enjoyable chewability experience for people struggling to swallow pills and experiencing pill fatigue. In fact, chewables may even feature fast-melt textures for enhanced oral comfort – ideal for people experiencing pill fatigue!
They’re Easy to Absorb
Chewable vitamins provide more efficient absorption by your body’s natural processes than tablets do, which is why so many adults prefer taking them as well; multivitamin tablets or individual vitamin supplements may be available specifically tailored for adults.
Children’s chewable flavored multivitamins, for instance, come in the shapes of their favorite characters to hold their interest and ensure they consume enough vitamins and minerals each day. This allows children with tiny bellies and sweeter food preferences to quickly consume what their bodies need for health.
Gummy vitamins can be more sugary than their tablet counterparts and some ingredients may not be appropriate for vegans or people following kosher diets. Chewable tablets, on the other hand, can be made using clean ingredients to meet clean-label standards; additionally they’re less heat sensitive and can even be produced through direct compression which prevents moisture and temperature damage to nutraceuticals ingredients.
They’re Easy to Store
Many individuals take vitamins and supplements to meet their nutrient requirements. This can be especially important for those following strict vegan or vegetarian diets or with special health issues or concerns.
However, swallowing pills or finding the appropriate supplement form for individual needs can sometimes be challenging. Chewable vitamins provide an easy solution that may work well for most without compromising the quality or efficacy of vitamins or nutraceuticals content.
Children enjoy chewable multivitamins because they’re fun and easy to consume, while adults also take multivitamins or individual vitamins and minerals for good health.
If your vitamins are scattered across your kitchen counter or stored away in cabinets, try placing them in an attractive tray like Em did for her cooking oils and spices. Doing this may make them easier to access each day – possibly serving as a reminder to take them!
