Ingredients

6 listed · 4 flagged · estimated by AI, check the label
  • Sugar (Sweetener)Caution

    Primary ingredient providing sweetness and energy but leads to high glycemic impact, promotes tooth decay, and can contribute to obesity and diabetes risk with overconsumption; offers no essential nutrients.

  • Glucose syrup (Sweetener and texture agent)Caution

    Highly refined starch-derived syrup that raises blood sugar quickly similar to sugar; associated with empty calories and potential metabolic concerns, often from GMO corn.

  • Gelatin (Gelling agent)

    Provides the characteristic bouncy texture of marshmallows; sourced from animal bones/skin, supplies some protein but in this product the amount is too small to offer meaningful health benefits like joint support.

  • Corn starch (Anti-sticking agent)

    Used to prevent sticking; minimal amount means neutral effect, but may trigger sensitivities in corn-allergic individuals and is typically a highly processed carbohydrate.

  • Artificial flavors (Flavor enhancer)Caution

    Chemically created to provide taste; while approved for use, they provide no nutritional value and some consumers experience headaches or other reactions to certain flavor compounds.

  • Food colors (Coloring)Caution

    Synthetic dyes give the bears their vibrant appearance; linked in some studies to hyperactivity in sensitive children and may cause allergic reactions, representing an additive with debated long-term safety.
