FAQs
Where are Goodie Gum Drops™ from?
Goodie Gum Drops™ and Y Health + Wellness are 100% Australian owned, operated and based out of the beautiful Gold Coast. Due to technological advancements in the Northern Hemisphere we choose to get our manufacturing done in the USA and bottle our products locally here in Australia.
What is the texture and taste of Goodie Gum Drops™ like?
The taste and texture of our Goodie Gum Drops™ range was at the top of the list when we were creating them. All of our gummies are naturally flavoured and the texture is unrivalled compared to other products on the market. Our Apple Cider Vinegar gummies taste like sweet red apples with a hint of ACV. Turmeric gummies have a natural sweet ginger flavour with a beautiful peppery undertone and our Collagen gummies taste like strawberries! DELICIOUS!!
Can I give Goodie Gum Drops™ to my kids?
Absolutely! Goodie Gum Drops™ are a favourite for kids (and parents prefer them due to the quality of ingredients compared to others on the market). We suggest giving kids a half serve (one gummy of each up to twice a day).
Are Goodie Gum Drops™ Gluten-Free?
YES! All of our Goodie Gum Drops™ products are made in a Gluten-Free, GMP Certified Facility.
Are Goodie Gum Drops™ Vegan?
Both our Apple Cider Vinegar + Turmeric gummies are vegan. Our Collagen gummies aren't vegan due to having hydrolysed marine collagen peptides in them.
Are Goodie Gum Drops™ Non-GMO?
Absolutely! We would never even dream of putting anything genetically modified into our products or compromise on the quality of ingredients.
Why do you use glucose in Goodie Gum Drops™ and not cane sugar?
The human bodies main fuel source is glucose (unless you're keto or similar). While other brands predominantly use cane sugar we wanted something that is familiar to the body without causing a detrimental effect over time. There is a misconception that cane sugar is healthier than table sugar when in reality, chemically the two prodcts are identical.
Do Goodie Gum Drops™ have Gelatin in them?
Our ACV + Turmeric Goodie Gum Drops™ do NOT contain any gelatin and are made using pectin (a fibre found in fruit + vege peels). Our Collagen gummies use bovine gelatin alongside our potent Hydrolysed Marine Collagen Peptide formulation to give you a more concentrated results-driven gummy.
How does Goodie Gum Drops™ ACV gummies compare to drinking traditional ACV?
Just two of our Apple Cider Vinegar gummies contain 1000mg of ACV which is the equivalent to four liquid teaspoons (40ml)! We've taken away all the hassle of having to measure + psych yourself up, instead giving you your daily hit of ACV in a naturally flavoured gummy with a texture unrivalled by others + the taste of sweet red apples paired with a hint of ACV.
What's the difference between Marine Collagen and Bovine Collagen?
The most obvious difference between the two is that one comes from fish and the other comes from cows. When looking at the two types of collagen, both marine and bovine provide nearly the same benefits. HOWEVER we have chosen to use Hydrolysed Marine Collagen Peptides due to it's smaller particle size which makes it have superior bioavailability compared to bovine collagen (this means it is absorbed faster into the body - 1.5x infact!) Both are great for skin, hair, gut and bone health but marine collagen might be a better choice for those wanting faster results.
What's the difference between Turmeric I buy at the supermarket and the Turmeric in Goodie Gum Drops™?
There is so much information about the superfood properties of Turmeric but it's not quite as simple as sprinkling it over your food! You not only stain your hands (and bench) in the process but if it isn't activated correctly you're not receiving anywhere near the level of benefits you should be. We've taken all the hard work away from you and formulated our Turmeric Goodie Gum Drops™ to have the perfect balance of Turmeric + Curcumin (this is the most potent part of the Turmeric root and makes up about 2-3%) and then we've activated it with black pepper extract, increasing it's benefits by 2000x!!!
How do I store my Goodie Gum Drops™?
We like to keep ours in the cupboard but if you prefer a chewier or slightly harder texture, you're more than welcome to keep them in the fridge. The only 'goodie' that isn't recommended being left in direct heat is our Collagen gummies as they will melt - they remain stable up to 26 degrees celcius though so just don't leave them in a hot car!
