Missing Peace One A Day?

I can't be the first to find out I've only been getting 1/2 a day.

One serving per day

u/A-Money-Lover 1h ago edited 1h ago

Thats kinda misleading tho, most people would assume one tablet/gummy whatever. Or it should say once a day not one

u/iamsam007 1h ago

Good news is that with gummy vitamin supplements, half a dose is probably as effective as a full dose.

u/Educational-Gur7479 1h ago

Two gummies

u/G_Wagon1102 1h ago

Which is how many servings?

u/Educational-Gur7479 1h ago

🤯 missing the point

u/Google_guy228 1h ago

No, you are. One a day as in you only have to take this one time a day that is 2 gummies only once a day

7

u/Educational-Gur7479 1h ago

But who the fuck would assume it's 2? Lol y'all just argue to argue

u/Ta-veren- 1h ago

It literally says two per serving on the front

u/A-Money-Lover 1h ago

You dont know english? Theres difference between once and one. I usually mock people in this sub but OP is right to be mildly infuriated. Vitamins dont do much for most people anyways 🤣

  1. You’re not the only one because this is posted here often.

  2. If you take the big boy pills it’s still just one a day just like the brand originated.

  1. Thank you I figured it must have come up
  2. No

u/AwarenessSoggy4352 1h ago

It’s the brand. If you put on your big boy pants and get the tablets you can take one a day though 🤷🏽‍♂️

Some people can't swallow big loads🤷🏻‍♂️

It's ok to be jealous

u/AwarenessSoggy4352 1h ago

You literally opted for a double sized gummy rather than two 😂

u/hskrpwr 1h ago

That would be chewing first not swallowing whole....

u/Giantmeteor_we_needU 1h ago

That's why every pharmacy sells pill crushers. 🤷‍♂️

u/Luckycharms1024 51m ago

everyone also has a bunch of pill crushers in their mouth called teeth

u/arkham0027 1h ago

i think they mean one a day bc of the pill, not the gummies

gummies i guess require 2 to get the same dose as a single pill

3

u/Frosty-Confection-29 1h ago

You take 1 in the day, and 1 at night. Duh /S

‘lil dessert gumo

u/ZealousidealVisit431 1h ago

1 bottle a day

u/Camwi 1h ago

It's the brand name, based off the pill form (which is only a single pill per day).

They're not going to change the brand name just because some people need to chew some candy as their medicine.

0

u/Glittering-Pie756 1h ago

They should make the gummies bigger to fit the slogan then.

•

u/Optimal-Age5397 20m ago

Just take a pill like a big boy.

-2

u/hskrpwr 1h ago

They can make the gummy bigger or likely even increase the concentration in the gummy.

7

u/Frequent-Succotash-4 1h ago edited 1h ago

You only need to take that dose once a day, it’s stupid. However you should always check the dosage for things

-6

u/Educational-Gur7479 1h ago

Why not make a bigger gummy? Why suggest two for a One A Day serving?

5

u/ATLSxFINEST93 1h ago

Because you only need one serving per day

-4

u/Educational-Gur7479 1h ago

Tell me why it's 2 though?

7

u/ATLSxFINEST93 1h ago

Because that's what they've manufactured. Some people might not need a full dose per day, because they get their vitamins from other sources.

•

u/Educational-Gur7479 59m ago

2 a day

u/ATLSxFINEST93 58m ago

I did two-a-days in highschool. It was rough, especially on the week days.

How bout that. Ive only been taking one.

u/Kastrand 1h ago

oh my god OP i'm so sorry you're dealing with all these people in the comments but it's also lowkey hilarious how they just... don't get it 🤣🤣

2

u/Saizare 1h ago

The true mildly infuriating thing are the comments on this sub. I swear, people can't decide between the mild part or the infuriating part, so you get people bitching no matter what.

2

u/Educational-Gur7479 1h ago

I'll live even without the gummies. I was just saying it's a little misleading

•

u/Saizare 58m ago

Sorry, that wasn't targeted towards you. I agree, it is mildly infuriating. I was more complaining about the commentors on this sub. I've seen so many posts of things that are MILDLY infuriating and people bitch about the OP. Then I'll see one of something VERY infuriating, and people get onto the OP for it being more than mild. It just gets annoying hearing people complain about what does or doesn't fit on a sub, but with no consistency.

•

u/Educational-Gur7479 56m ago

I agree, my post upset them more than the actual issue bothered me🤣

u/BardGotHard3 1h ago

To be fair, if you are eating a well balanced diet you need 0 a day.

0

u/Educational-Gur7479 1h ago

Might not be once every single day

3

u/polarityofmarriage 1h ago

Shockingly, Flintstones vitamins (for kids) are still one a day for adults too. My doctor recommended them for me with iron as an adult.

3

u/JackRaid 1h ago

Should change the name to Once a Day if you're gonna make it take two a day. Wild work.

-1

u/ATLSxFINEST93 1h ago

It's one dose per day. 2 gummies to a serving.

4

u/Educational-Gur7479 1h ago

Make a gummy twice the size?

1

u/ATLSxFINEST93 1h ago

Or just eat 1 dose, according the recommended dosage?

You'd still get 20 doses, regardless.

-1

u/JackRaid 1h ago

So not One a day, as you just said. A dose is whatever the person says it is, as biomechanics varies from person to person. That's not a standard measurement. You know what is?

One. Two. Three. Those are set and standard.

2

u/ballin_buddha 1h ago

One serving a day. It makes no mention of one gummy

1

u/macnar 1h ago

No mention of one serving

1

u/ATLSxFINEST93 1h ago

On the front of the bottle, in the first pic, you can see it says "2 gummies per serving"

1

u/macnar 1h ago

Pretty sure we were talking about the big "one A day" on the bottle. The serving size is of course listed. 

1

u/ATLSxFINEST93 1h ago

The brand name?

1

u/macnar 1h ago

Yeah. The thing at the top of the bottle. The brand name. The literal core of the product. ONE a day. Yeah that. 

1

u/ATLSxFINEST93 1h ago

I mean, Gorilla Mind is a brand and I don't think it'll give me monkey brains because I drank it.

That's just me tho.

a dose is whatever the person says it is

Yeah.... definitely not the FDA guidelines but just an individual person can make up their own?

Please don't go into a medical profession.

u/BIGBUDDHASLZ 1h ago

Do you expect them to change their brand identity because of their product for men even though they sell and make more for women who do take one a day?

u/AggravatingBid8255 1h ago

Most mildly infuriating thing here tbh

u/Educational-Gur7479 1h ago

Just a gummy twice the size would be cool

•

u/Myusername1- 27m ago

It probably originated with big pills then they pivoted to add gummies.

4

u/DinkleBottoms 1h ago

They could just increase the dose of the gummy

2

u/Desperate-Chart1139 1h ago

Make this one bigger

0

u/hskrpwr 1h ago

They make women's that require two and they make men's that require one as well. 

This isn't a gender/sex issue

u/favperson13 1h ago

One a day is a brand name. Not a description of the proper dosage.

1

u/hskrpwr 1h ago

It was originally both.

u/Educational-Gur7479 1h ago

Unfortunately

2

u/CPLWPM85 1h ago

One A Day is the brand, not the dosage.

3

u/elegantwombatt 1h ago

It lowkey says on the front that its "2 per serving" lol

2

u/Glittering-Pie756 1h ago

lol They should either change the size of the gummies or change the slogan from “one a day” to something along the lines of “one daily serving”.

Also, why are people arguing this? It’s misinformation in big bold letters. People will think, “Why read the back when it tells you on the front?”

2

u/safe-viewing 1h ago

One a day is the brand name not the instructions. Come on man.

u/skhapa3257 1h ago

Not gonna lie, I tried being healthier two(?) years ago, and started taking the women's pill version.

I read that bottle front and back, all the way around, top to bottom. I was so damn frustrated cause I couldn't find the directions on how many to take. My boyfriend looked at me like he was legitimately questioning my intelligence.

To this day, both him AND the kids give me shit for it.

1

u/ExtremlyFastLinoone 1h ago

Probably cause theres some rules about how nutritional information needs to be listed and if it only had 1 gummy then a lot of the vitamines and minarals fall under the margin of error and cant be listed

u/nuckin_phuts 1h ago

One serving a day

1

u/PuraVidaPagan 1h ago

The tablets are one tablet/ day and the gummies are 2/day. It’s because you can’t put as many vitamins and minerals in gummies and have them still taste good, however you have a great point about making a larger single gummy.

u/MerpoB 1h ago

The brand name infuriates you? Dude

3

u/Educational-Gur7479 1h ago

mildly

•

u/Head-Ad9893 54m ago

So you take medicinal type of products and don’t read the label?

•

u/MerpoB 51m ago

Yeah, but this shouldn't even count as that. You're supposed to read the labels of things you stick in your mouth or butt or any orifice for that matter. You are putting these in your mouth, right? Did you feel like you weren't on your A game with half a dose? Does 2 make the world of difference now?

u/hybridpelican 1h ago

It’s one serving per day

But if you don’t know how to read servings then yeah i can see the mistake ofc

But op you gotta kinda take this as a lesson learned tbh
