I am not sure how well it would blend and it would likely taste gross lol but you can try it and see how it goes I don't think it will change the effects that the vitamins have once they are in your system

I wouldn't blend the pill. Vitamins are designed so that they are absorbed a certain way. Blending them into a smoothie might alter that. You can buy the gummis at the store they aren't prescription.

Do any of you think making milk shakes & blending mg vitamin pill in there too is a good idea?
