I grew up taking a popular children's multi-vitamin. My favorites were the cherry or grape ones… I would wrestle my sister for those! But that was a different age and time… before parents were aware of the less than healthy ingredients that are present in many of those products. Although my own children love all of the popular brand-name multi-vitamins, I began to wonder, is there a healthier and more natural alternative?
Did you know that many of the popular children’s multi-vitamins include ingredients such as aspartame (artificial sweetener) and hydrogenated oil (trans fat)? Gross! Is it really necessary to include such unhealthy ingredients in a multi-vitamin? But pay attention;
I have found some tasty, affordable, all-natural children’s multi-vitamins…
My kids adore Nature's Plus Animal Parade Chewables, which contain no artificial ingredients and preservatives. They are made with all-natural fructose instead of artificial sweeteners. Hero Nutritionals Yummi Bears Whole Food Supplements are another of my kids’ favorites: they are gummy bear-shaped multivitamins with no preservatives and artificial flavors. Both brands are also free from common allergens such as yeast, wheat, corn, soy and milk. So make the switch… your kids deserve the very best!
