Hey everyone! I'm looking to buy some Vitamin D gummies as a gift - either for my mom (she's 68 and doesn't get outside much) or my gym buddy who's obsessed with optimizing everything. Should I get a 'health pack' with multiple vitamins or just focus on D? Any brand recommendations that actually taste good and work well? Budget is flexible but don't want to waste money on junk.

OMG love this! For aging parents, Vitamin D is CRUCIAL for bone health and mood support. I'd recommend Nature Made Vitamin D3 gummies - they're third-party tested and have 2000 IU which is perfect for older adults. For fitness friends, go with a combo pack that includes D3+K2 - it helps with calcium absorption for stronger bones during heavy lifts! I've been using these for my clients and the results are *chef's kiss*

Taste matters people! Don't get those chalky ones that taste like vitamins. I've tried like 10 brands lol. For flavor: Olly Vitamin D gummies are legit tasty - citrus flavor that doesn't have that weird aftertaste. For your mom, maybe get the strawberry ones from SmartyPants - they're softer and easier to chew. Avoid anything with artificial sweeteners if she's sensitive to that stuff.

Keep it simple. Single ingredient focus. Vitamin D3 only, no fillers. I use NOW Foods D3 gummies - just vitamin D, pectin, and natural flavors. No need for combo packs unless there's a specific deficiency. For aging: 2000-4000 IU daily. For fitness: same dose, timing doesn't matter. Buy from reputable brands, not fancy packaging.
