We recommend taking one of our adult Vitamin D gummies each day. It’s not possible to overdose on probiotic supplements (your gut naturally contains trillions of friendly bacteria!) but for the added vitamins it’s best to stick to our guidelines and keep an eye on your daily intake(1), especially if you take several different vitamin and mineral supplements each day.

Probiotic supplements in capsules or powders typically contain Lactobacilli or Bifidobacteria, whereas gut gummies use heat-resistant friendly bacteria like Bacillus coagulans Unique IS-24 (1,2). Because they taste like yummy ‘sweets’, people often wonder if probiotic gummies are as good as capsules or powders, but if you buy from a trusted company, you can be sure the ingredients and probiotic strains are of the highest quality, and every bit as good as other formats.
