Approaching the age of 40, my body’s systems work a little differently than when I was in my 20s. Although I stay active, exercise, maintain a healthy and balanced diet, and limit ingesting toxins which may have adverse effects on my body, the reality is that I can occasionally use libido enhancement and support during life’s intimate moments.
That’s why I decided to try In the Mood Gummies from Slumber and BlueChew to determine which option was best for my particular needs. Below I’ll cover my experience with each product, what I like about them, and also which one I prefer!
This isn’t meant to be medical advice, but rather a personal review of libido enhancement products. Especially if you are taking prescription medications, it is highly recommended that you consult your primary care physician. These medications, especially BlueChew, can interact with other medicines in a way that produces side effects. So please be mindful on your journey with mood gummies.

Key Takeaways:
BlueChew uses fast-acting, synthetic ingredients (like sildenafil), catering to those who want immediate results. In the Mood Gummies from Slumber take a more holistic, plant-based route, potentially offering sustained benefits beyond just sexual performance.
In the Mood libido gummies include adaptogens, herbal extracts, and antioxidants that aim to boost overall vitality, reduce stress, and enhance libido for people of all genders. This contrasts with BlueChew, which targets men specifically and focuses on blood flow and immediate performance.
In the Mood gummies offer broad wellness advantages—like improved energy, better stress management, and potential sleep benefits—making them a more comprehensive solution for libido enhancement and daily well-being.
BlueChew is a subscription-based service that offers chewable tablets designed to enhance sexual performance. Unlike traditional pills, BlueChew's products are formulated in a chewable format, making them a convenient option for those who prefer not to swallow pills. My first experience with BlueChew was actually when a trusted friend gifted me the Sildenafil chewable because he had a positive experience.
The active ingredients of BlueChew are similar to those found in well-known medications for erectile dysfunction such as sildenafil (active ingredient in Viagra) and tadalafil (found in Cialis). Both compounds have been clinically proven to increase blood flow which may lead to improvements in sexual performance for men.

The proposed benefits of BlueChew include: fast-acting performance, over-the-counter accessibility, online consultations with the brand’s network of licensed healthcare professionals, and a focus on convenience for the user. Let me explain these in a little more detail:
Fast-Acting Performance: The formulation is designed to work quickly, offering noticeable results when needed. This fast onset of action is particularly appealing for those looking for an immediate boost during intimate moments.
Online Consultations: Before starting the service, users complete an online consultation with a licensed healthcare professional. This ensures that the product is appropriate for the individual's health needs and helps minimize potential risks associated with the use of erectile dysfunction treatments.
Focus on Convenience: With a monthly subscription model, BlueChew aims to provide a hassle-free solution for men who may experience occasional erectile challenges. The service delivers the tablets directly to your door, simplifying the process of obtaining these medications.
BlueChew is geared toward individuals seeking an on-demand, convenient solution for enhancing sexual performance with proven, fast-acting synthetic ingredients. This combination of factors is what makes BlueChew a massive brand with a growing online presence and strong consumer adoption rates. But I set out to compare my BlueChew experience against libido gummies from Slumber, so it was time to put the blue chewable to the test!
BlueChew caught my attention early on thanks to its omnipresent digital campaign geared towards men featuring beautiful women saying how satisfied they were with the effects. Admittedly, I was impacted by the old adage that “sex sells”, so when my friend offered me a sample I took him up on that. Please note that my experience for writing this review was based on one night of taking sildenafil vs. one day of taking In the Mood Gummies. Here’s what I observed when taking BlueChew:
Fast-Acting Results: BlueChew is known for its rapid onset of action, which did provide a noticeable boost in performance shortly after ingesting.
Persisting Stamina: I appreciated that the product delivered improved performance and stamina in the bedroom.
Synthetic Ingredients: The formula relies on synthetic compounds, which felt less natural to me. I started wondering about the long-term impact of regularly consuming such ingredients such as headaches, upset stomach, or dizziness.
Stained Tongue: My friend forewarned me that BlueChew will stain your tongue pretty intensely, and so much so that your partner may notice a blue tongue and funky taste during foreplay. I was very surprised at how much the product stained my tongue. I would say that this is the least desirable experience of taking a functional product for libido enhancement
Taste: I took the chewable sildenafil and the product did not taste good for me. Although, BlueChew does offer mint-flavored options for anyone with a sensitive sense of taste.
Enter In the Mood Gummies—a product that truly changed my perspective on libido enhancement. Unlike BlueChew, these gummies offer a more holistic formula that prioritizes the body’s natural processes and that was an important part of my journey into libido enhancement products. The lineup of ingredients made me feel as though I was taking a product which may help improve libido whilst also improving other areas of my health and overall well-being. For example, the herbal extracts, antioxidants, and adaptogens offer a plethora of other benefits to the body. For some men looking for mood gummies or libido boosters, they may be less concerned with holistic and functional ingredients as they are with fast-acting efficacy of the product. This is obviously subjective, but for me, keeping a holistic health mindset informed my journey with these products.
The first thing I noticed about In the Mood Gummies was the ingredient list. Each component is chosen not just for its individual benefits but for how it interacts with the body's systems. The gummies are packed with natural extracts and compounds that work synergistically to support libido. I love that the lineup includes ingredients like horny goat weed, muira puama, maca root, and ashwaghanda. Each of these are derivatives of plant-based ingredients offering proven health benefits. That was important to me, so comparing the ingredient list of In the Mood gummies from Slumber vs. BlueChew, I was a lot more comfortable and drawn to Slumber’s product for libido enhancement. Here’s how the ingredient lineup can broadly be considered by anyone interested in considering a more plant-based approach to libido enhancement:
Herbal Extracts: They include a blend of botanicals known for their ability to promote blood flow and improve overall vitality.
Antioxidants: These help reduce oxidative stress, which can contribute to fatigue and diminished libido.
Adaptogens: These ingredients help the body manage stress—a key factor in maintaining a healthy sex drive.

Something that caught my eye immediately is that Slumber claims their In the Mood gummies can provide libido enhancement agnostic of gender. Admittedly at first I was skeptical of that claim, but after doing a little more research on the ingredients I found this claim to be valid based on the benefits of the synergistic blend of herbal extracts, antioxidants, and adaptogens:
Herbal Extracts: The gummies contain a variety of herbal extracts known to naturally support sexual health. These botanicals can help improve blood flow, which is critical for sexual arousal and performance. Improved circulation means that both men and women may experience better sensitivity and responsiveness.
Antioxidants: By including antioxidants, the formula helps reduce oxidative stress in the body. Oxidative stress can impair cellular function and hormonal balance, so neutralizing free radicals contributes to a healthier sexual response and overall vitality.
Adaptogens: Adaptogenic herbs assist the body in managing stress, which is a common factor in diminished libido. By supporting a balanced stress response, the gummies can help maintain healthy levels of sex hormones and reduce the impact of everyday stress on your sexual performance.
One of the standout benefits of In the Mood Gummies is their gender agnostic formula. Unlike some libido boosters that are targeted primarily at one gender, these gummies are designed to support the hormonal balance and sexual wellness of everyone. This inclusive approach means that whether you're a man, woman, or nonbinary, the ingredients work harmoniously with your body’s unique chemistry in the following ways:
Balanced Hormonal Support: The gummies work to support the natural hormonal balance in the body without favoring male or female-specific pathways. This means that they can help modulate testosterone, estrogen, and other important hormones in a way that benefits all users.
Universal Mechanisms: The key benefits, such as improved blood flow, stress reduction, and enhanced energy levels, are universal in their impact. Both men and women rely on these physiological mechanisms to achieve a satisfying sexual experience.
Mood and Energy Boost: Beyond their direct effects on sexual function, the ingredients support overall wellness by boosting energy and mood. A positive mental state is closely linked with sexual desire and satisfaction. By helping to reduce fatigue and lift the mood, the gummies indirectly contribute to a more active libido.
Sustained Effects: Unlike products that offer a short-lived boost by relying on synthetic stimulants, In the Mood Gummies provide a sustained enhancement in libido. The gradual and consistent support means that users can enjoy a more balanced state of well-being, which is beneficial for long-term sexual health.
It’s important to note that both products I tested for libido enhancement were effective at producing desired results. For me though, I prefer a more holistic approach to libido enhancement which was provided in my experience with In the Mood gummies from Slumber. I found that my energy levels in and out of the bedroom were sustained, my stress levels were moderate, I slept a bit better (perhaps because of the in-the-bedroom results), and I experienced heightened focus in my daily activities when taking Slumber’s product.
I know plenty of men who are less concerned about holistic benefits associated with libido enhancement or erectile dysfunction. They just need a product to work when they need it most. Viagra or BlueChew could be a viable option for those people. Although, I would suggest trying Slumber’s In the Mood gummies first, staying on a planned regimen where you take 1-2 gummies everyday for two weeks, and then gauging whether you’re having a positive experience. If you’re looking for immediate and as-needed results from In the Mood gummies, I would recommend taking 2 gummies. Otherwise, the benefits of the adaptogens and antioxidants are such that In the Mood gummies can viably become a part of your supplement regimen. They definitely became a part of mine after this experience.
If you’re searching for effective libido gummies that not only enhance your performance but also promote overall wellness, I highly recommend giving In the Mood Gummies a try. While BlueChew may offer rapid results, the holistic benefits of In the Mood Gummies have made them my go-to choice for libido enhancement.
By focusing on natural, well-rounded ingredients and an inclusive approach, In the Mood Gummies deliver a superior experience—one that has truly improved my daily well-being and sexual health. Whether you're looking for a natural libido booster or simply curious about mood gummies, this product is worth considering. Give it a shot!
