Wellness gummies provide an effortless and straightforward method of taking vitamins and supplements, with their high-grade ingredients like organic fruit juice flavors making for a tasty and easy experience.
These treats are also free from gelatin, artificial colors and preservatives – ideal for children with allergies or sensitivities – and contain vitamin C, D3 and zinc for immune support.
Goji Berries
Goji berries, commonly referred to as wolfberries, can be found growing on various boxthorn plants and are generally consumed dried for consumption. Rich in vitamins and minerals including Vitamin C, Zinc Manganese as well as Dietary Fiber they make an excellent nutritional option.
Watermelons are also packed with antioxidants and have one of the highest oxygen radical absorption capacities for any fruit or vegetable – five times more than raisins and second only to pomegranate seeds and blueberries! Furthermore, they’re high in zeaxanthin – an anti-macular degeneration pigment which delivers nutrients directly to retinas while protecting from macular degeneration.
Chinese medicine considers goji berries an effective remedy to address “yin deficiency”. Goji berries have long been believed to improve mood and reduce stress while helping balance hormone levels – thus their popularity among menopausal supplements. Lycopene-rich Goji berries may even protect against heart disease while their high potassium content could help lower blood pressure – all benefits that make Gojis an attractive addition to trail mixes, smoothies or gummies!
Ginger
No matter your method of consumption – tea, green juice or oatmeal – ginger root provides essential nutrition. Widely known as an effective remedy against nausea (pregnancy and motion sickness alike), ginger may also reduce menstrual cramping, reduce menstrual cramping intensity and provide anti-inflammatory benefits.
Ginger’s antioxidants help to limit excess reactive oxygen species that could damage cells. Furthermore, they may improve heart health, boost memory and cognitive performance as well as soothe muscle pain and joint stiffness.
These wellness gummies contain ginger and turmeric extracts, making them an excellent choice for anyone hoping to boost their immune system. Each package contains 270mg of curcumin–an orange plant phytochemical known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties–plus they’re gluten and dairy-free!
Apple Cider Vinegar
Proponents of apple cider vinegar claim it can do everything from boost metabolism to treat diabetes, foot fungus, acne and dandruff. Unfortunately, most of these claims haven’t been proven and may not be suitable for everyone; pregnant and breastfeeding women should avoid apple cider vinegar due to potential risks; those suffering from acid reflux or gout should use it with caution; those on diabetes medications should use it sparingly as it may reduce blood sugar levels.
ACV is produced by covering crushed apples with water and allowing bacteria to convert their ethanol content to acetic acid. Some gummies use pasteurized ACV; others offer raw versions with more bacteria and proteins — often visible as cloudy sediment at the bottom of bottles known as the ‘mother’). ACV acts as an antibacterial and can help reduce overgrowth in your digestive tract, while some wellness ingredients like valerian root for sleep support and vitamin B6 for mood regulation offer added support.
Elderberry
Sambucus nigra elderberry extract is an increasingly popular wellness ingredient used to strengthen immunity and combat cold and flu symptoms, while providing anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and diabetes support properties. Furthermore, anthocyanins and polyphenols present within its cells help impart its pharmacological effects.
Studies have demonstrated that elderberry extracts, specifically their anthocyanin content, can significantly decrease glycosylated hemoglobin levels in diabetic rats while simultaneously decreasing atherosclerotic index in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats’ aortas. Furthermore, elderberry extracts attenuated inflammation-mediated HDL dysfunction via altering hepatic gene expression modifications.
Dietary supplement industry is notoriously susceptible to adulterating elderberry extracts. A UHPLC-PDA-MS analysis of 31 European elderberry dietary supplements showed that 60% had different anthocyanin profiles than authentic elderberries, often due to black rice extract or other unknown additives containing black radish seeds or similar adulterants; chemical consistency between standardized elderberry fruit extracts is of crucial importance in terms of both their pharmacological activity and health benefits.
