Love the product but struggle with the taste and chewing them because I really don’t like artificial sweeteners. I got the blueberry flavor, but would prefer something tart with no sugar, stevia or artificial sweetener. I’d rate it 5 stars if it weren’t for the taste.

Hi Kerri,
Appreciate you being specific about it. Blueberry is not for everyone, and a tart option without stevia or artificial sweeteners is a request we can actually do something with, so it has gone to our product team worded as you put it.
Glad the product itself is working for you in the meantime.
Thanks,

ABSOLUTELY TO NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM
I recently reviewed this "company" and found that many others have had identical negative experiences to mine. They intentionally avoid responding to emails about cancellations or returns but are quick to reply to other inquiries.
Here’s what happened to me: after pausing my subscription, I received a notification that my card had been charged, and the product was “shipping soon.” I immediately sent three emails clearly stating DO NOT SEND, but none were answered. Conveniently, once the item shipped, they responded, saying it could not be refunded or returned.
It’s clear they ignored my emails intentionally so they could ship the product and enforce their no-returns policy. This practice is deceptive and unethical.
Additionally, the company’s website appears to host fake reviews and misleading ratings, tricking customers into believing it is legitimate and trustworthy. The product itself doesn’t work as advertised—it’s a total scam.
This company needs to be reported to the BBB and possibly for ethics violations. I am frustrated enough to start that process myself.

Hi there,
Thanks for setting out the sequence so clearly. Sending three emails and hearing nothing until after the box had shipped is a genuinely bad experience, and the gap in responsiveness has been raised with the team here.
So other readers have the full picture, our subscription terms and the recurring billing schedule are shown directly above the purchase button at checkout, before any order is placed. That disclosure is required of us as a Shopify store, and we take the obligation seriously.
For anyone who would rather not wait on us at all: the account icon next to the cart at the top of any page signs you in with the email or phone number from your order, and a subscription can be paused, changed, or cancelled from there.
Positively,
Bear Balanced Team

fake product
fake product, you have to file a dispute with your credit card too cancel, my Chase CC told me they are aware of this company and refunded me already.

Hi Scott,
A card dispute should never be the route to stopping a subscription, and we're sorry that is where this ended up for you.
For clarity, the subscription terms and the recurring billing schedule sit directly above the purchase button at checkout, before any order is placed. As a Shopify-powered store we are required to present that on every subscription order.
Cancelling is also something you can do yourself in about a minute: click the account icon next to the cart at the top of any page on our site, sign in with the email or phone number from the order, then pause, change, or cancel from there.
Thanks,
Bear Balanced Team

They sent a "subscription" even after I…
They sent a "subscription" even after I canceled and won't refund the charge. They also never send a reminder about an upcoming subscription, just charge you. I would have never re-ordered this product, it tastes about as awful as I could imagine. I couldn't even give it away, had to toss it.
Response from Bear BalancedSep 22, 2026
Hi Lou,
This is not the experience we want anyone to have, and we're sorry a charge landed after you thought you were done with us. Your note about the taste has gone to our product team as well.
To be upfront about how the subscriptions work, the terms and the recurring billing schedule appear directly above the purchase button at checkout, before an order goes through. Shopify requires us to present that on every subscription order we take.
For the future, the subscription itself sits behind the account icon next to the cart at the top of any page on our site. Signing in with the email or phone number from the order lets you pause, change, or cancel it.
Positively,

Horrible gummy and even worse customer…
Horrible gummy and even worse customer service. Stay away!!!!
Response from Bear BalancedSep 22, 2026
Hi Rosemary,
Short and blunt, and fair enough. We would rather hear it than not.
The gummy is something our product team is actively reworking, and your verdict has been passed along to them. The service side is on us, and we are sorry that dealing with us left you with that impression instead of a resolution.
There is not a lot we can put right from a review alone, but the feedback does not stop here.
Thanks,
Bear Balanced Team

Terrible customer service
Terrible customer service. Says you can return unopened orders, less $15 then says “as per the site, auto ship cannot be returned” I never read that. Just a terrible company and the product tastes even worse.
Response from Bear BalancedSep 22, 2026
Hi Jackie,
Getting two different answers about a return is confusing, and we are sorry that is how it went. The taste feedback has gone to our product team, and that is exactly the kind of note they act on.
So other readers know how the autoship is set up: the terms, including the recurring billing schedule, are shown directly above the purchase button at checkout, before the order is placed. As a Shopify-powered store we are required to present that disclosure on every subscription order.
The autoship is also yours to change whenever you want, through the account icon next to the cart at the top of any page, signed in with the email or phone number from the order.
Positively,
Bear Balanced Team

Zero stars for this pathetic grifting…
Zero stars for this pathetic grifting ‘company’ they have a very interesting relationship with the truth. They give you the opportunity to return their product, which by the way tastes so bad it made me almost vomit. They say yes you can return, with no qualifications. Then I tell them their product tastes like sh*t. And suddenly open bags can’t be returned. Do not ever buy from these grifting con men.
Response from Bear BalancedSep 22, 2026
Hi Jill,
Thank you for taking the time to write this, blunt as it is. Being told one thing about a return and then something else afterwards is the part we find hardest to defend, and we are sorry it landed that way.
On the taste, your reaction has gone straight to the product team. A gummy that someone has to force down is a failure of the product, not of the person eating it, and that is how we are treating the note.
We cannot undo how this went, but it has been logged where it will be read.
Thanks,
Bear Balanced Team

Horrible customer service
Horrible customer service, no one responds to emails and there isn't a phone number to call. Never got my first order, so I canceled my subscription. Got hounded daily with emails to update my payment information that I had no reason to store on their site an when I emailed support about it never heard back. If they care this little about their customer experience I have little faith in the product or how good it is to put in my body.
Response from Bear BalancedSep 22, 2026
Hi Rob,
Emails going unanswered while marketing keeps arriving is a bad combination, and we are sorry that is what you got from us. Never receiving the first order at all makes it worse.
The silence is the part we are working hardest on. Someone who has to chase us twice and hears nothing either time has been let down twice, and there is no version of that we are comfortable with.
If it is ever useful, a subscription can be managed without us: the account icon next to the cart at the top of any page, signed in with the email or phone number from the order, lets you pause, change, or cancel.
Positively,
Bear Balanced Team
