Naturals Ultra Strength

TL;DR: These chews taste great, work fast, and make calcium easy to stay consistent with. I’ve tried plenty of antacids over the years, and these TUMS Naturals in the black cherry and watermelon mix have become the ones I reach for without even thinking. The flavor is the first thing that won me over. They taste more like a snack chew than medicine, and there’s no weird chalk taste or artificial afterbite. I started using them for heartburn here and there, but what ended up surprising me is how useful they are for keeping my daily calcium steady. I’m already taking a good amount of supplements, so anything that makes one of them easier is a win. These fit right into our routine with no effort. You just chew one and move on with your day. The simple ingredient list is another thing I appreciate. No dyes, no artificial flavors, nothing odd. They work fast too. If I get heartburn from something spicy or heavier meals, these calm it down in minutes. I also love knowing they are gluten free and come from a brand that has been trusted for ages. There’s something reassuring about that. The texture is soft enough to chew quickly, but not sticky. They sit well on the stomach and don’t leave any coating or heaviness afterward. My husband takes them the same way I do, mostly for the calcium, and he swears the flavors make it feel like a little treat instead of something you’re forcing yourself to take. It’s small, but things like that help you stay consistent. If you’re trying to keep heartburn under control or just want an easier way to stay on top of calcium, these are worth having around. The big container lasts a long time, and we always keep one in the kitchen drawer because they get a lot of use. It’s nice when something simple just works the way it should. Tip: Keep a few in a tiny snack bag inside your purse or car so you’re never stuck without calcium on busier days. Hope this helps! =)

I really like these because they are one of the few stomach relief options I’ve found without all the artificial dyes and extra junk that so many other brands, especially regular Tums, seem to have. That was a huge selling point for me. They worked well for heartburn after heavy BBQ food and didn’t leave that chalky aftertaste as bad as some others do. The black cherry flavor is actually pretty decent too.

the same great effect of normal tums, but with no artificial junk, and a better taste. these taste more like that chalk candy you'd get as a kid instead of the overly-sweet artificial flavor of the original tums that taste closer to sweet-tarts. these naturals honestly taste so good that i get this urge to eat them just as a snack. sheer willpower keeps that from happening.

These work quickly and very well but they taste like soap from my grandma's bathroom. Over all worth it for the great price.

They work well and taste good.

These are as effective as the ones we all know in love, but with the benefit of being colored with natural methods as opposed to potentially harmful dyes. Good fruity flavor. I found this newer version to be a little more expensive than the old style of TUMS, but maybe you could catch them on sale. I myself do not have a sensitivity to dye, but I feel it's important to support any company that is transitioning from something that most people can do without, but that I mean using more natural methods in the manufacturing process. No matter why you choose these, thanks for reading, and best of health to you!

Not as tasty as hoped. Actually don’t like them as much as the regular Tums, & they’re way below the Smoothies in flavor profile & texture. Not sure what the difference is, but they’re Tums, so it’s not like I’m expecting $40/lb chocolates. Although, now that I think about it, these may cost about that much if you do the math, so … perhaps they *should* taste better than they do fo as pricey as they are.

One tablet works for acid stomach. Not bad tasting either.
