The basics01
What is in the Stallion Power gummy base?
Eight ingredients make the gummy itself: corn syrup, cane sugar, water, apple pectin, sorbitol liquid, natural flavors, citric acid and sodium citrate dihydrate.
They are printed under the Supplement Facts panel as "other ingredients". None has an amount, and none is an active ingredient.
Together they carry the 82 mg blend and give the gummy its red color, shape and chew.
| Name on the label | Corn syrup, cane sugar, apple pectin and five more |
|---|---|
| What it is | Sweeteners, a fruit-fiber gel, a sugar alcohol, acids and flavor |
| Where it appears | Gummy base (other ingredients line) |
| Amount per gummy | 3 g carbohydrates, all added sugar |
| Amount used in research | Not an active ingredient |
| Strength of evidence | Not applicable |
| Marketed or traditional use | Makes the gummy |
| Main caution | 3 g of added sugar a gummy; sorbitol can loosen stools; keep away from children because it looks like candy. |

Sugar02
How much sugar is in a Stallion Power gummy?
Three grams, all of it added sugar. That is 6% of the 50 g Daily Value for added sugars (FDA, Added Sugars on the label).
Three grams is about three-quarters of a teaspoon. Corn syrup and cane sugar supply it, and the label lists both ahead of the pectin.
Thirty gummies in a bottle means about 90 g of sugar per bottle. Spread over 30 days, that is 3 g a day on the label dose.
The bar shows one gummy by printed weight. Carbohydrate is the largest piece, and the active blend is small beside it.
Label numbers03
How many calories and how much sodium does one gummy have?
Ten calories and 4 mg of sodium, which is under 1% of the Daily Value. Total carbohydrate is 3 g, or 1% DV.
| Line | Per gummy | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Calories | 10 | Small; a gummy is mostly sugar and water |
| Total carbohydrate | 3 g (1% DV) | All of it is sugar |
| Total sugar | 3 g | From corn syrup and cane sugar |
| Added sugar | 3 g (6% DV) | Daily Value is 50 g (FDA, Added Sugars on the label) |
| Sodium | 4 mg (<1% DV) | From sodium citrate and trace sources |
The sugar is the point to weigh if you count carbohydrates for diabetes. Ask your care team how a gummy fits your plan, and read the full panel on the supplement facts page.
Sorbitol04
Does the sorbitol in Stallion Power cause a laxative effect?
Not at one gummy a day. Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol that can loosen stools in large amounts, and the federal rule that sets the warning point is near 50 g a day (21 CFR 184.1835 (sorbitol)).
The label does not print the sorbitol amount. The label prints only 3 g of total carbohydrate per gummy, and sorbitol is one of eight base ingredients, so the amount is a few grams at most, far below that threshold.
The warning level is about 50 g a day. A single gummy cannot hold anywhere near that, even if the whole gummy were sorbitol. Eating many gummies at once is a different matter, and not what the label asks.
Pectin05
Is the Stallion Power gummy made with gelatin?
No. The label lists apple pectin, a plant fiber from fruit, as the setting agent. That makes the gummy gelatin-free.
The vegetarian badge on the brand's materials is the brand's own claim. The label does not say vegetarian, and it does not name the source of the natural flavors (Stallion Power sales page).
Citric acid gives the tart taste, and sodium citrate dihydrate balances the acidity. Both are common in candy.
Corn syrup and cane sugar
Sweetener and body; they supply the 3 g.
Apple pectin
Sets the gel. Plant-based, not gelatin.
Sorbitol, acids, flavors
Softness, tang and taste. Amounts not printed.

Why must Stallion Power gummies stay away from children?
Because they look and taste like candy. Gummy supplements are a leading cause of emergency visits for children who swallow them (CDC MMWR, Kids and melatonin gummies).
The label says to keep the bottle out of reach of children. Store it at 59 to 86 F with the cap tight, and do not use it if the seal under the cap is broken or missing.
The gummy also carries 5 mg of caffeine and an herbal blend. Neither is meant for a child. If a child eats some, call poison control or your doctor.
Who should check07
Who should think twice about the base ingredients?
People who count sugar, take diabetes medicine or avoid sorbitol or corn syrup. The label also asks anyone pregnant, nursing, taking medications or with a medical condition to consult a doctor first.
- Diabetes or prediabetes: 3 g of added sugar adds up with other foods
- Sensitive stomach: sorbitol can bother some people, even at small amounts
- Corn allergy: corn syrup is the first ingredient listed
- Children in the home: lock the bottle away (CDC MMWR, Kids and melatonin gummies)
Never skip a diabetes or heart medicine because you started a gummy. Tell your care team what you take (FDA, Mixing medications and supplements).
Next08
What does the base tell us about the product?
It tells us the gummy is mostly candy ingredients with a small active blend. The 82 mg blend sits inside a few grams of sugar and fiber.
That is normal for a gummy, and it explains why the active doses are small. See the ingredients page for the blend, or side effects for when to stop.
FAQ09
Stallion Power sugar and gummy base: common questions
Does Stallion Power have sugar?
Yes. One gummy lists 3 g of sugar, all of it added, which is 6% of the Daily Value of 50 g (FDA, Added Sugars on the label). It comes from corn syrup and cane sugar.
How many calories are in a Stallion Power gummy?
Ten. Along with 3 g of carbohydrate and 4 mg of sodium, that is everything the nutrition lines print. A bottle of 30 gummies holds about 300 calories in all.
Is there sorbitol in Stallion Power?
Yes, listed as sorbitol liquid in the other ingredients. The laxative warning applies at roughly 50 g a day (21 CFR 184.1835 (sorbitol)), and one gummy is far below that. The label prints no sorbitol amount.
Is Stallion Power gelatin-free?
Yes. The label lists apple pectin, a fruit fiber, and no gelatin. The brand also shows a vegetarian badge, but the label itself does not say vegetarian and does not name the flavor source.
Is Stallion Power sugar-free?
No. It carries 3 g of added sugar per gummy. If you must avoid sugar, ask your doctor whether 3 g a day fits your plan before you start.
Why do Stallion Power gummies need to be kept from children?
They look like candy, and gummy supplements are a common reason children visit emergency rooms (CDC MMWR, Kids and melatonin gummies). The label says to keep the bottle out of reach, and the gummy also holds 5 mg of caffeine.
Does Stallion Power contain corn?
Corn syrup is the first other ingredient. If you have a corn allergy or avoid corn products, ask your doctor first. The label prints no allergen statement.
