America’s Most-Preferred Multivitamin Brand Launches New Centrum® MultiGummies
MADISON, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Pfizer Consumer Healthcare, the makers of America’s most-preferred and most-clinically studied multivitamin brand, Centrum®, has announced the launch of Centrum® MultiGummies, a great-tasting, easy-to-take multivitamin, specifically designed with key nutrients to help support energy, immunity and metabolism.
“According to nutritional health data, nine out of 10 Americans are not getting enough of key essential nutrients such as Vitamins D and E,”1 said Elizabeth Ward, Registered Dietitian and nutrition health expert. “A new multivitamin formula that is easy to take allows consumers to get key vitamins and minerals that are so important to supporting nutritional health.”
Multivitamins are recognized as one of the ways consumers can help fill daily nutritional gaps in the diet. In the U.S., dietary intake studies report a broad range of nutrient gaps and many individuals are not getting enough of key nutrients daily, from food alone.1,2
“We continue to evolve the Centrum product line to reflect consumers’ varying needs and preferences. In our research, consumers said they wanted a more enjoyable way to get essential vitamins and minerals daily, which is why we are pleased to offer the addition of Centrum® MultiGummies,” said Chris Lynch, Senior Product Manager for Centrum. “Now consumers can get the nutrients they need from the brand they know and trust, in a great tasting gummy form.”
Centrum® MultiGummies is the latest addition to Centrum’s multivitamin product line. Centrum Multivitamins offers one of the most comprehensive lines of product forms, including: Tablet, chewable, liquid forms and now gummies. Centrum® MultiGummies include key nutrients such as Vitamins D, B12 and E, and are available in natural flavors (Berry, Cherry, Orange), are gluten-free, use only natural colorants, and do not contain any artificial sweeteners.
