Here in the UK, vitamin D is in short supply. That is because, unlike other vital vits, it is not something we get much of from food. Instead, our body takes vitamin D from the sun’s rays, converting the warmth we feel on our skin into healthy bones and muscles, as well as by cells that make up your immune system. Certain vitamins are very safe at levels tens or even hundreds of times the NRV, whereas for others the safety level is much closer to the NRV. For this reason every vitamin and mineral needs to considered on an individual basis in terms of its upper safe level. FOOD SUPPLEMENT with sweeteners. Food supplements must not replace a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. As with other food supplements, consult your doctor or pharmacist before giving to your child if they are under medical supervision, have epilepsy, a thyroid condition, haemochromatosis, suffer from food allergies, or are allergic to any of the ingredients . Wellkid Multi-vitamin Liquid is formulated with iodine which contributes to normal growth in children, plus vitamin D which helps maintain normal growth and development of bone in children.

Directions

Government surveys have indicated that children's diets can be low in certain nutrients such as iron, which contributes to normal cognitive development of children.This is especially true for vegetarians, as iron from non-meat sources may not be as easily absorbed by the body. Wellkid Immune Chewable tablets are formulated with moderate levels of iron and are suitable for vegetarians.

The Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) is the amount of a vitamin or mineral which has been calculated to help prevent basic deficiency states in the general population. However, certain vitamins and minerals at optimal levels, above the NRV, have consistently been shown to have positive benefits in specific areas of health. This is why some Vitabiotics formulas have certain nutrient levels greater than 100% NRV. Wellkid Immune Chewable tablets have been produced with children's specific needs in mind to provide a comprehensive range of 24 nutrients to help safeguard your child's nutritional intake. They come in a great tasting, orange & lemon flavour. Growth is especially rapid during the first 12 years of a child's life. Continuous development of bones, muscles, blood and the brain mean that children have a high nutrient requirement compared to their body size. Meeting those nutritional requirements can be a challenge, as it is common for children to be fussy eaters. You may experience your child refusing to eat certain foods, disliking certain tastes or textures, or being reluctant to try new foods. Children usually grow out of fussy eating and in the meantime nutritional supplements such as Wellkid Immune Chewable tablets can help safeguard a child's nutritional intake as part of a balanced diet. All Vitabiotics products have been developed using the latest research and contain effective levels of vitamins and minerals, while avoiding any excessive amounts, in accordance with official upper safe limits for vitamins and minerals.So vital, in fact, is the gut microbiome, that some experts believe that as much as 70% of our immune system is based in the gut. Calcium is an essential mineral, also needed for normal growth and development of bone in children. However, it has not been included in the Wellkid Immune Chewable formula, as it is not possible to include the right amount in one tablet. For mothers particularly concerned about the normal bone health of their children we recommend Wellkid Calcium Liquid, which can be taken alongside Wellkid Immune Chewable and contains calcium and vitamin D. Wellkid Immune Chewable includes vitamins A, C and D, as recommended by the UK Department of Health which advises that all children up to the age of 5 years should be given a supplement that contains these vitamins.

Meanwhile,studies have also shown that zinc deficiency prevents cells involved in the immune response from functioning normally.
