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

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.

I haven't taken them consistently, but I've tried the new citrus ginger, and I actually really like the flavor. Also really appreciate that they incorporate vitamins and whole (mashed) foods, instead of just powder. 

All of the flavors were kinda earthy and tasted like dirt except for the Citrus Ginger flavor . I had gotten a free GEM Essentials Sampler Pack. Which included five of each of their Daily Essentials flavors which were Cacao, Chocolate Cherry Sleep, and Citrus Ginger.  The Chocolate Cherry Sleep worked well to put me in a deep sleep, I just couldn't get over the taste. Citrus Ginger was the best tasting out of the bunch and also gave me an increase of energy. Lastly the Cacao was bitter tasting and I didn't see much of a change it was claiming to help boost your mood. Very chewy but grainy texture off putting and they're very pricey. I don't recommend!     

I really like the Citrus Ginger flavor, but a couple other flavors I tried just tasted gross. No idea if I feel different, I'm kinda just putting some trust in it for now. BUT... I have dreams now... Like I rarely remember dreams but when I started taking this after the first couple days I started remembering my dreams EVERY night! It was so weird! I am certain it was GEM because of the timing of when they occurred, also when I didn't take one I didn't remember my dream that night. Unfortunately that part kinda wore off :( I think my body got used to whatever was doing that. Anyway, I loved that and the Citrus Ginger flavor, but they are very expensive. The cost and only one good flavor is why I'm giving it a 3 star. Also I want the dreams to come back.

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

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. 

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

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!



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 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!

I love the ingredients and the formulation (in theory) and I really wanted to like this because of the brand's whole-food approach to nutrition, but it tasted SO BAD that I couldn't finish even a month's supply which is unfortunate because it wasn't cheap.
