Emergen-C Crystals On-the-Go Immune Support Supplement Review

Emergen-C Immune Support Crystals, 28 Stickpacks, Strawberry Burst is a 28 count box weighing 0.35 lbs, Item # 497518, containing 28 stick packs of strawberry burst flavored Emergen-C Crystals, sold as an On-the-Go Emergen-C Immune Support Supplement with Vitamin C, B Vitamins, Zinc and Manganese. The page states that the crystals offer the same Emergen-C immune support in a convenient, no-water-needed crystal popping experience. It says these products feature B vitamins to enhance energy naturally, 500 mg of vitamin C per stick pack, zinc and manganese. The directions on the page say to open the dietary supplement packet, pour the crystals in your mouth, and feel the popping, with no water or mixing needed. The page notes that the statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration and that the product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. The bullet points add further detail. The listing says each stick pack provides 500 mg of vitamin C, which the page compares to more vitamin C than 10 oranges in two stick packs, based on USDA Food Data Central values for raw oranges. It describes the product as a vitamin C supplement that naturally enhances energy with vitamin B and says it contains antioxidants zinc and manganese. The product is listed as caffeine-free, gluten-free and vegetarian. The packs are described as easy to use with no water needed: pour the crystals in your mouth and feel the pop to emerge your best on the go. The comparison table on the page lists this product in the Crystals format with a key benefit of daily immunity support plus energy burst, 500 mg of vitamin C, strawberry burst flavor, a perfect on the go check mark, a daily dosage of 2 sticks, and a count of 28 sticks. The table also lists Emergen-C Crystals Orange Vitality with 500 mg of vitamin C and Sparkly Strawberry Kids with 250 mg of vitamin C, both also at 2 sticks daily and 28 sticks. Emergen-C Gummies for adults are listed as a gummy format with 750 mg of vitamin C, 3 gummies daily, and 45 count. Emergen-C Original Formula is listed as a powder drink mix with 1000 mg of vitamin C, 1 packet daily, and 30 packets, and it is not marked as perfect for the go. The table marks gluten-free, caffeine free, and vegetarian as true for every listed item. The page shows a 4.7 rating from 288 reviews and a headline stating that 100% would recommend the product. The ingredients, directions, warnings and specifications headings appear on the page, but their written content is not included in the scraped text. The page also notes that the product is currently out of stock and lists links to its ingredients and reviews.
