Question 3

Can i eat clear gummy bears during colonoscopy prep?

Question 4

I heard multivitamins don't really work or somehow ineffective, i just got the gummies kinds because im not able to afford healthy stuff, waste of $ ?

Accepted Answer

Not sure where you heard that multivitamins don't work -- i've read a lot that says they can be helpful supplements to (not a replacement for!) a healthy diet.  The difference might be the product you're using, and its bioavailability in your system.  Gummies generally contain lots of sugar, and there are multiple kinds.  Some don't use natural vitamin e, for instance -- ; that's not good for you.

Yes.

Question 7

Do gummy smiles have to have surgery to fix them? i have a gummy smile that i don't love, but i'm mostly okay with it. are there any health or dental reasons that i should get it fixed?

Accepted Answer

If you mean your teeth appear to be small due to an excess of gum tissue at the neck of the tooth, then a minor surgical recontouring of that tissue will help reduce that "gummy" look.

From a health standpoint, as long as you keep your teeth and gums clean, there is no reason you need to do any surgery if you are happy with your appearance.

Question 8

My craving during my pregnancy is gummy bears (haribo gold bears gummy candy) is it okay for me to eat gummy bears while pregnant ? i love them

Accepted Answer

No harm in indulging your craving some; however, gummy bears are basically sugar. You need to make sure you are eating a balanced diet for a healthy pregnancy. Also, too many sweets could result in excess weight gain which can have negative effects on pregnancy and increase risks of diabetes. Enjoy your gummy bears - in moderation!

Question 9

Do food product containing gelatin, particularly gummy bears and gummy worms, reduce the effectiveness of bc pills, if taken just a few minutes apart?

Accepted Answer

A person who is taking her birth control pills properly, and then eats a typical, normal amount of gelatin-containing foods, should not notice any change in the effectiveness of her birth control pills. Of course, nobody knows what would happen if a person ate an unsually huge amount of gelatin. Thus, as with all things in life... everything in moderation.

Question 10

What to do if your 4yr old and 2yr old ate more than 20 of there gummy bear vitamins? each one containing 200iu

Accepted Answer

They are probably fine unless they contain a lot of iron- too much iron can be hazardous. Nothing else in them should cause acute toxicity. Obviously you need to keep these vitamins out of reach so this does not happen again! 
if you repost with the exact brand i can tell you more.
