Please note that we ship a variety of gummy products internationally. We always make sure to provide a customs declaration form to speed up processing. However, due to the often changing laws regarding some of the products and their labelling that vary within countries and even federal territories, we cannot offer compensation in case the product is seized by customs authorities, so please check the legal requirements in your country before placing your order.

You can return any unwanted items you have received within 14 days of receipt if the product hasn’t been opened.

Yumi
Gummies
We go into a bit more detail on what makes our gummies so great on this page.
All of our products have been tested by a UKAS accredited laboratory and contain less than 5 parts per million gluten. Our Bedtime (5-HTP) gummies contain gluten free malt syrup.
Yumi products do not contain gelatin and are vegan verified.
We tend to advise that our gummies are safe and effective for children over the age of 5 years old. We recommended a child serving size of 1 gummy per day instead of 2. We also recommend checking with your child's doctor if you are unsure or have any concerns, just to make sure they are the right choice for them personally based on medical history.
Yes, of course! Yumi gummies have been designed to be used in combination with one another to help you address your daily needs and help achieve your personal health goals.
They're all natural! Colours and flavours are all derived from fruits, vegetables, grains and herbs.
We use various natural ingredients including sugar from sugarcane, and corn (not high fructose corn syrup) to make our gummies. We chose not to use artificial sweeteners because they have been linked to bad health issues, and we wanted to stick with only natural ingredients.
While our products are easily eliminated from the body without causing any side effects, high doses of fat-soluble nutrients such as vitamins D and A are stored by the body. However, none of our products contain added iron, the primary concern in cases of multivitamin overdose. Please contact your physician or doctor to discuss your concern.
You can take the supplements at any time of the day. The most important thing is to remember to take your supplements daily, as nutritional health transformations take place over time!
Safety
& quality
Our products are made and approved in accordance with the FSA good manufacturing practices that require our manufacturers to validate the composition, identity, strength, and purity of all products produced.
We recommend always speaking with your doctor or physician prior to taking any dietary supplements during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
It is best to store your supplements in a cool, dry place at room temperature. It is also important to keep them away from direct sunlight and other heat sources as the gummies can melt if stored over 40°C.
Yes! All of our Yumi Nutrition containers can be recycled.
Yumi products expire 24 months from the date at which they were manufactured. Vitamins and minerals naturally break down over time, so whilst they’re safe to take, we do not guarantee their effectiveness.
