I want to mention that I'm normally not a fan of gummy style supplements because they often taste fake and can get hard quickly. However, that wasn't the case with these Sambucol Black Elderberry Zero Sugar Triple Immunity Gummies! I decided to take a chance with this product because I trust the Sambucol brand. I've used supplements from them many times before, with positive results. Anyway, for this product, a serving size is 3 gummies, so the 45 count bottle only lasts for 15 days or for 15 uses, which is disappointing. There are 5 grams of sugar alcohols and 25 calories per serving. In addition, they're gluten free, dairy free, and vegan. For an immune support supplement, these gummies surprisingly don't contain any zinc ingredients. They do contain high amounts of Vitamin C (600 mg) and Vitamin D3 (30 mcg/1200 IU), and 40 mg of Black Elderberry extract though. The extract is apparently sourced from Haschberg Black Elderberries (Sambucus nigra) in Switzerland. I appreciate the natural sourcing and it reinforces the fact that this is a high quality product. When stored properly (away from sunlight and heat), each gummy stays soft and is easy to chew. They're naturally flavored with raspberry and lemon. The taste is like a somewhat tart berry, without being too sweet or having an aftertaste. As far as immunity goes, I think they definitely helped to boost my immune system. I felt more resilient after taking them. I probably would've given them 5 stars, IF it weren't for the small bottle, in relation to the serving size, and the fact that they don't contain zinc.
