As parents, we’re always looking for ways to support our children’s health and wellbeing especially when they’re picky eaters, have lost their usual spark or seem to catch everything over the dreaded winter months. Research indicates that children in Australia are at risk of nutritional deficiencies, with just 5% eating the recommended fruit and vegetable intake. Supplements like Whole Earth & Sea® Kids Multi and Kids Vegan D3 Drops can help provide key nutrients for children to maintain the spring in their step for non-stop fun, play and adventure.
1. BOOST INTAKE OF VITAMIN D TO BOLSTER IMMUNITY AND HEALTHY DEVELOPMENT
Surprisingly, despite our sunny, outdoor lifestyle low vitamin D levels are common and up to 95% of Australians have insufficient dietary intake. It is difficult to get adequate vitamin D from our diet with low levels in sources such as oily fish, eggs and meat. Children mainly get vitamin D from sun exposure, however many factors can limit their body’s production such as cold winter months, recommended sun protection, darker skin and living in southern regions of Australia. Babies can be particularly vulnerable because their sensitive skin requires extra sun protection and, although a great nutritional source, breastmilk is often low in vitamin D.
Vitamin D is essential for healthy immune function, calcium absorption and strong bone, muscle and teeth development. Plant-based Kids Vegan D3 Drops contain organic vitamin D3 for babies and children to help support their healthy growth, immunity and development. Conveniently, one drop provides the Australian daily recommended adequate intake for infants and children.
2. FILL NUTRITIONAL GAPS FOR THOSE FUSSY EATERS!
Multivitamins boost nutrient intake and help fill critical nutritional gaps, especially for our picky eaters. Due to increased growth and activity in childhood, kids have high nutritional needs. Specific nutrients important in supporting children’s health and wellbeing include B vitamins, iron, zinc, vitamin D3 and iodine. Kids Multi provides comprehensive vitamins, minerals and nutrients including wholefood sources such as amla berry for vitamin C and Farm Fresh Factors® fruit, vegetable and herbal blends.
3. NURTURE HEALTHY GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT
Every parent strives to provide a healthy diet, knowing it is essential to their child’s health and wellbeing. However, even when kids eat a varied, balanced diet, modern farming and depletion in Australian soils can impact food nutrient levels. Kids Multi provides essential nutrients for healthy growth and development in babies and children including zinc, iron, iodine and vitamins B12, C and D3 for healthy bones, teeth and muscles.
4. MAINTAIN A STRONG, HEALTHY IMMUNE SYSTEM
It’s difficult to watch kids repeatedly battle illness at school and daycare. Although getting sick is essential to building immunity, we want to support them in bouncing back quickly to help prevent this revolving door of sickness. Kids Multi and Kids Vegan D3 drops provide nutrients such as iron, zinc, vitamins C and D3 to support healthy immune function for kids.
5. SUPPORT COGNITIVE FUNCTION
Low levels of iron and iodine are common in children and have been associated with poor cognitive development and learning. Kids Multi helps nourish their potential by providing vital nutrients for children’s healthy brain function such as iron, iodine, vitamin B12 and zinc so they can be at their best at school and play.
