CLOSED Northwest Natural Vitamins Review & Giveaway
Wednesday, August 25, 2010 Posted by BusyWorkingMama
Do you remember to take your vitamins every day? You might be better about it if you had some yummy gummy bears on hand! 
Northwest Natural Products has been providing the highest quality dietary supplements for over 20 years for adults and children. Northwest Natural Products® was the first to introduce gelatin-based nutritional supplements to the mass market and has changed how children take their vitamins. The L’il Critters® brand has grown to be the number one selling gummy vitamin for kids in the United States and is sold in over 19 foreign countries. The Vitafusion® products are specially formulated for adults.

The L’il Critters® brand has grown to be the number one selling gummy vitamin for kids in the United States and is sold in over 19 foreign countries. The Vitafusion® products are specially formulated for adults.We received a lovely gift box of products pictured below to try out. We are big proponents of taking our vitamins and eating healthy so we dove right into these bottles to test them out. It turns out there was something for all of us here.
MY THOUGHTS
I tried the Vitafusion Fiber Gummies first and boy are they yummy! I sacrificed one to my husband so he could have a taste, but since then I have been hoarding them for myself. They have a great texture and taste - not artificial or overly sweet - and help me get some extra fiber in my diet. These are sugar free and have natural colors and flavors.We also received Vitafusions HeartOne supplements which are the only adult gummy vitamins with Corowise plant sterols, an ingredient that helps lower LDL cholesterol. I have started giving these to my husband who has had high cholesterol since his late 20's. HeartOne contains 400mg of plant sterols per serving, is made with natural colors and flavors and tastes great.
Lastly, Lily received some L'il Critters gummy vites to review. Of course they were a hit, and I like knowing she is supplementing her already very healthy eating habits with a multivitamin. She thinks these are a little treat and asks for them after dinner. The L'il Critters line includes a variety of great supplements for kids including Calcium Gummy Bears (we bought these the other week!), Fruit and Veggie, Immune C, Omega-3 Gummy Bears, Vitamin D Gummy Bears, and more.
You can purchase Vitafusion Fiber gummies Costco, Target, CVS, BJ's, Super Valu, Fred Meyer & KMart. Vitafusion also carries some great prenatal gummies which I sure would have appreciated instead of those giant pills my doctor prescribed!
Currently Northwest Natural Products are also hosting a video contest for a 3 night stay at Great Wolf Lodge so take a peak and spread the word! The promotion runs through November 30, 2010.
