'We wanted to offer our customers even more ways to find calm in their busy lifestyles, and our new gummies provide just that - a tasty and convenient option for those wanting the health benefits of magnesium without compromising on flavour or quality.'
Like many people, I often find it challenging to get enough rest and keep my stress in check so I put these new gummies to the test.
I've seen a few TikTok videos about magnesium and its potential benefits, and while I do enjoy the calming effects of a can of TRIP drinks, I’ve remained a bit sceptical about supplements.

So I decided to give TRIP's Wild Berry Magnesium Gummies a try to see if they live up to the hype. Not to mention I don't sleep very well, get lethargic and could do without stress!
Upon opening the bag of sealed gummies, their appearance immediately reminded me of foam earplugs. But the lilac-coloured supplements were appealing, especially for someone like me who has always struggled to consistently take supplements in the form of tablets, capsules, or powders.
And they tasted good, too. Imagine purple Starburst - sweet and fruity. As for the texture, they have a jelly-like consistency, soft yet firm enough to hold its shape.
To test, I took the recommended dose of 180mg (two gummies, to be exact) while at work, and then repeated the routine the following week, taking them before bed for seven consecutive days.
It’s safe to say TRIP Wild Berry Magnesium Gummies have now become a bedside staple for me. They're a tasty way to take on stress and sleep better
I'll admit that during the first two days of taking the supplements during office hours, I wasn't sure they were having much effect. However, by day three, it became clear that they had made me feel significantly more relaxed and less stressed than usual.
That being said, I did notice that this calmer version of myself, while I appreciated it, wasn't exactly operating at my usual capacity during work hours. That's why I decided to test the supplements in the evening as well. I figured the effects might be more beneficial after hours.
And I was right. Taking two gummies a few hours before bed definitely helped me unwind and made it easier to drift off. I also noticed a marked improvement in the quality of my sleep - more restful, and I’d wake up feeling truly refreshed.
It’s safe to say TRIP Wild Berry Magnesium Gummies have now become a bedside staple for me. They're a tasty way to take on stress and sleep better.
