Gummies are chewy, bite-sized confections made primarily from gelatin, sweeteners, and flavorings. Originating from Germany with the invention of the gummy bear in the early 20th century, they have since become a global favorite in various shapes and varieties. Common ingredients include sugar, corn syrup, and food-grade acids, with options often enriched with vitamins or fiber for added nutritional value. While gummies can offer a playful way to supplement nutrients like Vitamin C or calcium in fortified versions, they are typically high in sugar and lack substantial protein, healthy fats, or complex carbohydrates. Many fruit-flavored gummies imitate natural tastes, although artificial flavoring and coloring are prevalent in most commercial brands. Gummies can be a fun occasional treat but should be consumed in moderation, as excessive intake may contribute to dental issues or added sugar consumption. Healthier alternatives may include reduced-sugar or real fruit juice-based varieties.
