This is a great go-to if you want to get a bunch of solid ingredients on the cheap.įor our regimen however, the multi is such a cornerstone of our supplement diet that we will probably stick to ones that give us premium ingredients, like Smarty Pants or MyKind Organics. The overarching flavor smoothes it over for the most part, but you’re definitely getting that classic multivitamin undercurrent. Because of the nature of the multi, you can’t really get away from the bitterness that comes with any multi, even with Flintstones. It’s fruity, it’s tangy, it’s got hints of mellowing coconut.īut even with the flavory sorcery that Olly brings to the table, there is still an undercurrent of something a little minerally. As usual with Olly’s products, the flavor is good. The flavor is called “Tropical Twist”, and it’s certainly twisty. Probiotics really are a wonder, assisting with immune health, and also keeping the lady parts in balance (if you ever take antibiotics–make sure you’re also taking probiotics!!) Tasting Notes Just to give you a sense of what else is out there, if Bacillus Subtilis is your thing. If you want to stick with Bacillus Subtilis, Up4 has delivers the Subtilis in double the amount! 2 million CFU per two gummies. So while both the Olly Multi + Probiotics and the Probiolicious contain 1 million CFU of probiotics per dose, the strains aren’t the same. Probiolicious contains Bacillus Coagulans. (Against all odds, considering that name!) We will mention however, that this is a different strain of probiotic. If you’re interested in taking probiotics on their own, we personally adore Rainbow Light’s Probiolicious. So, basically we love this ingredient roster, and think it’s a good catchall if you’re looking for an affordable gummy with some added bonuses. Who doesn’t love a shelf stable probiotic? We try to always make sure we have one on hand, especially when traveling, because they can be really helpful with easing any digestion issues that can flare up when diets change and schedules get disrupted. ![]() (Side note: Do we really need the Biotin though? It’s something we’ve been pondering for a while now as beauty supplement junkies, and you can read about exploration of Biotin’s effectiveness here in our Mysteries of Sugar Bear Hair.)īut of course, the thing that really makes these stand out amongst other multivitamins is the 1 Billion CFU of Probiotics. The more you know!Īnd yes, then there’s Biotin, which does show up in a multi every now and again. The precise role of Chromium in the body doesn’t seem to be completely understood, but it is considered an “essential trace mineral,” and your body needs it. Even Harvard Health calls it “ the forgotten mineral.” It didn’t really ring a bell for us either, as it doesn’t really show up in gummy supplements a lot. If Chromium is a new one for you, you’re not alone. These include Selenium, Biotin, and Chromium. You got your standard B, C, D, and E, as well as Niacin and Folate.īut then there are a few additions that aren’t always included with the usual suspects. All your standard multi ingredients are present and accounted for: your vitamins A to Zinc. Let’s open this boxy bottle of goodness! Ingredients We’re kind of gummy snobs, tbh.īut we loved that this Olly multi had a plus one with the addition of probiotics, so we were super excited to try it. And that’s why we tend to overlook Olly in the multi department. But because multis are such an important part of our wellness, we kind of want to make sure we’re getting the best, most high quality ingredients. We appreciate that Olly’s gummies have been effective for us and easily accessible (in addition to always totally delicious!). ![]() And we’ll just say this, even though we’ve said it before: we do wish that Olly had more organic options, sourced non-GMO ingredients and stopped using gelatin in their products. Olly Gummiesīy now, we’re all familiar with gummy juggernaut Olly. Recently, we needed to re-up on our multivitamins, so we decided we would circle back to everyone’s favorite box store brand and give it a whirl. Olly’s classic Sleep gummy is the one we come back to time and time again when we need some melatonin quickly/cheaply/easily.īut we tend to look to other brands for our daily multivitamin. We often come to Olly for the unique blends it formulates (Hello, Hello Happy!) or for their wildly effective sleep gummies. ![]() (The LBD of gummies if we do say so ourselves.) So we decided it was high time we check in with Olly. We’re always on the prowl for that perfect daily multi gummy. You can learn more about our review process here!
