Gimber : the most frequent criticisms

Gimber is a popular product, but more and more consumers are expressing disappointment. Here are the most common criticisms.

Criticism #1: hidden sugar

The main surprise: 34g of sugar for 100ml of concentrate. Many consumers discover this figure after purchasing and feel misled by the “healthy” positioning. That's more than 3 times the sugar content of Coca-Cola.

Criticism #2: value for money

For the price of a premium concentrate, consumers expect a truly healthy product. When the 2nd ingredient is cane sugar, the perceived value drops.

Criticism No. 3: the absence of turmeric and ginger-absorption-turmeric-2026">black pepper

Informed consumers know that the triple formula (ginger + turmeric + black pepper) is the most effective. Gimber only contains ginger + sugar + lemon.

Criticism #4: Deceptive Marketing

Positioning itself as a “health drink” and “healthy alternative” while containing 34g of sugar/100ml is seen as nutritional greenwashing.

The alternative that responds to these criticisms

INTI — same concept (organic ginger Belgian), but:

  • ✅ Zero sugar added (vs 34g)
  • ✅ Turmeric included
  • ✅ Black pepper (piperine) included
  • ✅ Honest Marketing
