Add Some Sparkle to Your Number Two with Glitter-Infused Vitamin Pills
By Spooky
WeAreFeel, a UK-based supple- ment subscription company has been getting a lot of attention online lately for a bizarre limited-edition multivitamin pill designed to “make your toilet sparkle” when you do a number two.
The sparkly sup- plement – which costs £11.95 ($14.50) for 30 capsules – con- tains 18 different vitamins and min- erals, including Vitamin A, Vitamin D3, Folic Acid, zinc and iron, as well as lots of edible glit- ter that passes straight into the stool and alleged- ly makes it sparkle in your toilet bowl. According to WeAreFeel, the glitter, while edi- ble, is not fully digested by the human stomach so you can expect it all to end up in your stool.
“Extensive testing has proven that the glitter is not absorbed by the body, so that toi- let-time can really shine,”
the WeAreFeel website states. “Gum arabica (acacia gum) is a substance sourced from the sap of various species of the acacia tree and is used often across the food industry, however it is not fully digested by the body, giving
the user the desired effect.”
The non-toxic glit- ter in WeAreFeel multivitamin cap- sules is made from acacia gum and food colour- ings and contains no GMO, anti- adherents, lac- tose or gluten.
“WeAreFeel strives to be a fun innovative brand, with health and wellness at the forefront of what we do. After we
discovered a safe edible formula for glitter we couldn’t wait to apply it to our multivita- mins!” Boris Hodakel, founder of WeAreFeel, said. “Being healthy and get- ting all the nutri- ents you need shouldn’t be dull and boring, hope- fully the prospect of having a glit- tery toilet will encourage more people to get their daily dose of nutrients!”
These wacky glit- ter-infused multi- vitamin pills were announced last week, with 50 available boxes being sold on a first-come, first- served basis. As you can imagine, they sold out faster that you could say “poop” and now all we’re left with is a prod- uct page with no “Buy” button.
The saddest thing is we don’t even
know if they work as advertised, and it’s not like I’m going to ask the lucky few who bought them to send me pictures of their glittery stool... Who knows, if this gen- erates enough interest online, maybe WeAreFeel will at least consider adding glitter pills as a permanent item.
