In 1915, Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee invented the first multivitamin in the United States, Vitalized Minerals. And after over 100 years of science and innovation, we now have a comprehensive Vita-Lea multivitamin line. The newest addition to this line is our Vita-Lea Gummy, a strawberry multivitamin gummy that contains core nutrients to support overall health. But is this gummy right for you? Should you choose gummy vitamins over traditional vitamins? Let’s break down the similarities and differences between these two top multivitamin choices and help you find out which option is best for you.
What do all Vita-Lea options have in common?
Here are a few things you can enjoy about Vita-Lea no matter whether you choose gummy multivitamins or multivitamin tablets.
- Nutrition backed by science
Vita-Lea multivitamins are backed by 7 clinical studies and the Landmark Health Studies, the first studies to examine 30+ years of supplement use. The Landmark Health Studies showed that people who took Shaklee supplements, including Vita-Lea, had better health biomarkers than people who took a single multivitamin and people who took no supplements at all. You can learn more about the Landmark Health Studies here.
- The highest quality and safety
We hold ourselves to the highest product quality and safety standards. There are over 1,700 quality tests conducted across the Vita-Lea line for every production. Learn more about our quality standards here.
- Everything you need and nothing you don’t
We believe that less is more, and more isn’t always better. While we use quality ingredients in Vita-Lea, we only put in what’s absolutely needed. There are no artificial flavors, colors, sweeteners, or preservatives in any Vita-Lea multivitamin. We also don’t use fillers or additives that are of no use to the body.
Now let’s look at the differences between Vita-Lea Gummy and Vita-Lea tablet multivitamins.
The differences of Vita-Lea Gummy
- Great-tasting strawberry gummies
If you want to make daily nutrition more enjoyable, Vita-Lea Gummy might be for you. This strawberry-flavored, sugar-free multivitamin gummy is vegetarian, gluten-free, and nondairy, with only 7 calories per gummy. - Helps fill nutrient gaps with 12 essential vitamins and minerals
Vita-Lea Gummy contains core nutrients that support overall health, including brain, heart, and immune health.* These include key nutrients of concern, vitamins A, B6, B12, C, D, and E, niacin, folic acid, biotin, pantothenate, iodine, and zinc. Due to their format, gummy vitamins cannot hold as many nutrients as tablets. Consequently, Vita-Lea Gummy contains fewer vitamins and minerals than Vita-Lea tablets. When formulating this product, we focused on including the most critical nutrients to ensure it meets the key nutritional needs of most people. - A great option for the whole family
Both kids and adults can take Vita-Lea Gummy. Adults 18 years and older should take 3 gummies daily and kids 4 years and older should take 2 gummies daily.
Why you might choose Vita-Lea Gummy
- You want a gummy supplement that the whole family can take.
- You want to get core nutrients and fill some of the most common nutrient gaps.
- Pills and tablets aren’t for you or you have a hard time swallowing them.
The differences of Vita-Lea tablets
- High-potency multivitamin
Tablets do not have the same format restrictions as gummy vitamins, so all tablet versions of Vita-Lea have up to 24 essential vitamins & minerals and 100% DV or more of all essential vitamins to support overall health.* - Tailored to specific needs
There are Vita-Lea tablet options with different formulas for men, women, and adults over 50+. Vita-Lea Men is designed to support men’s health and vitality, and it does not contain iron.* Vita-Lea Women contains iron, folic acid, and iodine to support the unique needs of women, and it can also be used as a prenatal or postnatal multivitamin.* Vita-Lea Gold® contains added B vitamins and zinc to support age-related changes.* It also contains N-acetylcysteine, an antioxidant that helps counteract oxidative stress by neutralizing harmful free radicals, supporting cellular health.* - Methylated option
If you prefer a methylated multivitamin, Vita-Lea Methylated is formulated with methylcobalamin and methylfolate in place of B12 and folic acid for specialized nutritional support.
Why you might choose Vita-Lea Tablets
- You prefer traditional tablets over gummies.
- You want a complete multivitamin and multimineral that supports overall health.
- You want a multivitamin formulated for your specific needs.
