Influenster VoxBox: Emergen C

Hey Peeps!!

Long time no Talk!!  

I'm here today with some quick reviews of a VoxBox that I was selected to sample.

During the *ahem* C-times our family used a lot of the Emergen-C vitamin C packets so we're long-time fans of this brand.   I was pretty excited when I was selected to test out some new products.


I received this box from Influenster and was a little bummed to get 2 Ashwagandha supplements but hey, beggars can't be choosers, right?! 

First up, let's test out the gummies.  I have a love/hate relationship with gummy supplements because sometimes they are super sticky and get stuck in your teeth however, they usually taste delicious!


These not only tasted delicious but were JUST the right amount of chewy texture.   If this is a supplement that you like to include in your daily regimen, I highly recommend trying these out.   NOW, let me preface this with a reminder that Ashwagandha is an adaptive hormone so if you start noticing some odd symptoms you might want to lower your dosage.  Not that something like that happened to me or anything.   



Next up we have the Ashwahandha drink mix.  You tear open the little packet and add 6-8 oz of water.  Easy peasy!   This flavor is a mixed berry blend and it was actually pretty tasty.  My favorite part of these drink mixes.....NO STEVIA!   I'm incredibly sensitive to stevia and cannot ingest it at all without some disgusting side effects so I will spare you the details.     I'm always thrilled to get to sample things without any artificial sweeteners and yes, that includes the stevia.     Like I said, this was very tasty and if you don't like gummies or like having a drink mix to add to some of that water we're always trying to chug down then give these a try. 


Next up is the Apple Cider Vinegar drink mix.  Once again YAY for no stevia.  I was a little hesitant to try this one as I used to drink ACV every morning in my water but my tummy had a hard time with it so now I just drink warm lemon water.   I was so much hoping that this did not taste like ACV and guess what?  It doesn't!!  Not that it's all good, I personally found this to be incredibly sweet.   I think going with more water is the way to go with this one for sure, get that diluted down a bit.   If you like the benefits of ACV but want an easier way to ingest and definitely tastes better, then give this one a try.

All in All, I'd say my experience with this box was positive and if I were going to buy any one of these items again, it would definitely be the Ashwagandha gummies.     

I would like to thank Influenster for sending me the box to sample for free in exchange for my honest opinions and for Emergen-C for supplying the products.

I have a couple of free trials coming my way and I can't wait to review them and share with you guys!
I also have a few book boxes to review that I've been hanging on to as well!  

Have a good one peeps!
