Are Gummies the New Wellness Supplements?

Why Wellness Gummies Are Taking Over (and How to Make Your Own)

Let’s be real—swallowing giant pills every morning isn’t exactly the most fun way to take care of your health. Enter: gummy supplements. These chewy, fruity bites have exploded in popularity lately, popping up on wellness shelves everywhere from your local grocery store to TikTok feeds.

But here’s the deal: not all gummies are created equal. While the idea of turning your vitamins into candy sounds amazing, most store-bought versions are packed with added sugars, artificial dyes, and mystery ingredients.

That’s where homemade wellness gummies come in—and why gelatin (like our own Goose Goods Beef Gelatin) is the real MVP of this trend.


🍬 Why Are Gummy Supplements So Popular Right Now?

✅ They’re easy to take

No more choking down chalky pills. Gummies are convenient and kid-friendly, which is a huge win for parents (and adults who still make a face at fish oil capsules).

✅ They feel like a treat

Wellness feels more fun when your supplements taste like candy. It’s psychology—and it works.

✅ They’re customizable

Want a vitamin C gummy? Magnesium? A little collagen boost? Gummies can deliver a variety of nutrients in one tasty bite.


😬 But Here’s the Catch…

Most commercial wellness gummies come with ingredients your body doesn’t need, like:

  • Corn syrup or glucose syrup
  • Artificial colors & flavors
  • Low doses of active ingredients
  • Preservatives & fillers

So while they may look healthy, some gummy supplements are more sweet treat than superfood.


🥄 Enter: DIY Wellness Gummies (Made with Real Gelatin)

When you make your own gummies at home, you’re in control. You can keep the good stuff (like immune-supporting herbs, electrolytes, or adaptogens) and skip the sketchy fillers.

Plus, gelatin isn’t just the texture hero—it is the supplement.

Our Goose Goods Beef Gelatin is made from grass-fed beef and is rich in:

  • Collagen for skin, joints & hair
  • Glycine to support sleep, gut health & mental clarity
  • Natural protein to support daily wellness, especially for busy moms and wellness-minded women

✨ How to Make Your Own Supplement Gummies

All you need is:

  • 2 cups of juice or herbal tea
  • 3-4 tablespoons of Goose Goods Gelatin
  • Optional add-ins: honey, magnesium powder, vitamin C, elderberry syrup, probiotics—you name it!

Just bloom your gelatin in a bit of cold liquid, heat until dissolved, mix in your extras, pour into molds, and chill. Boom. Wellness gummies, your way.
