Customer Reviews of L'il Critters Gummy Vites - 220 ct.Customer Review: If you have ANY blood sugar issues, please note! Summary: 3 Stars
Well, I have a really hard time swallowing pills, so thought I'd try out a chewable
vitamin. The reviews talked about a decent flavor, so what's the harm, right?
Let me explain the harm!
First off, if you buy these for kids, be SURE to keep them locked up somewhere.
They taste almost identical to regular gummy candies, and it would be very easy for a child
to eat quite a bit of the jar. I don't know what that would do to a child, but it can't be
good for them in any way.
Now, as an adult, I took 3-4 a day. I am hypoglycemic, so I do watch when I eat.
I quickly found out that these things must have an incredibly high glycemic index, because they hit
me like a brick! I quickly learned to either take them late at night when I was ready for bed,
or just before a meal that would have protein to balance it out.
The thing is, it really doesn't balance out much. To make matters worse, they gave me a ferocious
case of the munchies! You know how if you eat something with a lot of sugar, you seem to want more
or are hungry feeling in a short while? That certainly describes these vitamins!
How do they manage to make vitamins palatable to chew? In this case, a LOT of sweeteners.
The first two ingredients on the list are GLUCOSE SYRUP and SUCROSE, both of which are fast-acting
sweeteners. Each bear has 7.5 calories, 2 grams of carb and one gram of sugar. That is quite a bit for
a healthy product. The only "healthy" thing that has more sugar I can think of are the pre-flavored yogurts
(which are VERY high in sugar, which is why they can say they are low fat. There is no fat in sugar).
It is better to buy plain or vanilla and add your own fruit or jellies.
Anyway - it was my first and last bottle of them. They gave me a bottomless pit appetite that I don't normally
have, and if not taken with a meal can definitely cause blood sugar spikes and dips.
Since it has that effect in adults, I just can't see them being actually good for children.
