I really love the concept behind this product. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get past the taste and dreaded taking them. For someone who likes earthy flavors, this product might be perfect.

I like this company and their mission. Conceptually this product is quite innovative. Instead of taking multi-vitamin pills that have a nasty-metallic after taste and give your fluorescent urine, or sugar-laden gummies, using whole food ingredients to deliver essential nutrients for optimal absorption sounds great! They also use targeted vitamins and ingredients for optimal health, immunity, calm, and sleep. After trying all their products, the one I use regularly is their immunity blend which unfortunately, they are phasing out. I've use their daily essentials, especially like their cacao flavor. While my review of a similar product, Rootless, was a bit ruthless, my review of Daily Gem is not! Why? Because they have figured out how to package the taste of seaweed/algae with the right ingredients - even though they may have "sweet" flavor profiles, they are counter-balanced with tangy (citrus), spicy (ginger), and the use of cocoa/cacao, which blends wells with the seaweed. They figured out the right mix. This is a whole-food, good-for-you, power-packed supplement goodness! I highly recommend!

Possibly explore more flavor profiles (savory, sour, spicy)

I have only tried the Cacao sleep essentials because I have a hard time sleeping and let me tell you, this product works! It tastes horrible, but it gets the job done! They claim this product helps you "Fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up restored. " and they speak nothing but the truth! I am a forever customer.

I just wish it tasted better or they made this wonderful concoction into pill form.

the taste can be difficult - honestly found it easier to just swallow a pill that chew a big chunk. Did really like the packaging and the general idea of the product. Took for 3 months and did not notice a major difference in my body or energy levels.

I love the concept. But couldn't really notice any change in my wellbeing. I also didn't necessarily look forward to eating these bites. It's okay. But wouldn't repurchase or recommend to a friend.

Feedback

GEM has odd brand positioning. I think more user testing and product development would go a lot further for them.

I love the idea of almost everything behind this brand. Whole food, plant-based sources, reusable tins for home and travel, and as someone who absolutely hates swallowing pills of any size, but doesn't love the additives/sugars of gummies, I thought the bites were right up my alley. The taste is palatable but not enjoyable at all (I mean it's a tough challenge). These are probably comparable to those disgusting health shots you try to get down in one gulp but these linger in your mouth even longer. I also didn't feel any different, and mainly hoping I'd see the difference in the sleep essentials one but on the nights I tried them, I personally had normal or even worse sleep than usual. Hopefully, they continue to improve but for now, it won't be a repeat buy for me!

Love the brand's mission 💕

TOTAL SCAM! I purchased the $5 trail size and was automatically charged a week later for a 1 month supply. I emailed the customer service the SAME day I received notice that the order was "Processing" and was told that the order had already shipped....I didn't receive the order for over 3 weeks. I didn't even open the box. I emailed them again to ask to return the unopened box for a refund and they said that I had to email them within 3 days of receiving the "notice of order process" and that they do not accept returns - even of unopened packages....also, the trails were GROSS.

Difficult returnsSuper slow shipping 🐌
