Multivitamin and mineral supplements provide a balanced dose of the basic vitamins and minerals in amounts that pose little or no risk of overdosing on any one nutrient. Some children are picky eaters, and in our fast-paced world, with busy schedules and fast-food temptations, children may not always get all the nutrients needed to maintain good health. This formula has been designed to meet the unique needs of children and can fill in the nutritional gaps to ensure normal growth and development. Beta-carotene: A precursor to vitamin A and an antioxidant. Vitamin A: Plays a role in the immune system and in the formation of healthy epithelial tissue. An antioxidant, it protects against damage to cells that can lead to cancer. Thiamine (vitamin B1): Protects against impaired mental function, required for proper energy production in the brain. Ribofl avin (vitamin B2): Needed for tissue repair and for healthy eyes. Important for energy production. Niacinamide (vitamin B3): Functions in the body as a component in the coenzymes NAD and NADP. Plays an important role in energy production; fat, cholesterol, and carbohydrate metabolism; and the manufacture of many body compounds, including sex and adrenal hormones. Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5): Vital to the healthy functioning of the adrenal glands, which is why pantothenic acid has long been considered an “antistress” vitamin. Folate (folic acid): Vital to healthy cell division and replication, especially the lining of the gastrointestinal tract, the skin, and bone marrow, where blood cells are formed. Also involved as coenzymes for neurotransmitters, and important to the healthy functioning of the immune system. Vitamin B6: Involved in the metabolism of amino acids and essential fatty acids, and is therefore required for the proper growth and maintenance of all body functions. Vitamin B12: Involved in the production of DNA, red blood cells, and the myelin sheath that surrounds nerve cells and speeds the conduction of signals along nerve cells. For proper absorption of B12, the stomach produces a digestive secretion called intrinsic factor. Vitamin C: An antioxidant and immune-enhancing vitamin. Vitamin D: Stimulates the absorption of calcium and has anticancer properties. Vitamin E: Protects the fatty tissues of the body. Protects against toxic substances. Biotin: A B vitamin that is involved in the biosynthesis of fatty acids and energy production. Iodine: Three-quarters of the iodine in the body is found in the thyroid gland, the remainder is found throughout the body, mostly in the fluid that bathes the cells. It is important in the proper functioning of the thyroid gland and is part of the thyroid hormones used to regulate metabolism, influencing physical and mental growth, the functioning of the nervous system and muscles, circulatory activity, and the metabolism of all nutrients. Calcium: Besides its role in the formation of bones and teeth, calcium is also in involved in fat and protein digestion and the production of energy. It is involved in blood clotting and the transmission of nerve impulses, and it regulates the contraction and relaxation of muscles, including the heart. Copper: Copper is required for normal infant development, red and white blood cell maturation, iron transport, bone strength, cholesterol metabolism, myocardial contractibility, glucose metabolism, brain development, and immune function. Iron: Transports oxygen from the lungs to the body’s tissues and carbon dioxide from the tissues to the lungs. It also functions in several key enzymes in energy production and metabolism, including DNA synthesis. Magnesium: Besides its role in maintaining healthy bones, magnesium is also involved in maintaining a healthy nervous system. In addition, magnesium is required for muscle relaxation, energy production, protein formation, cellular replication, the regulation of sodium and potassium in the cells, and efficient heart function. Zinc: Functions as a cofactor in over 20 enzymatic reactions. Plays a role in insulin activity, protein and DNA synthesis, taste and smell, wound healing, the maintenance of normal vitamin A levels, bone structure, and the immune system. HOW IT WORKS: Many studies indicate that most diets, even healthful ones, fall well below the Recommended Dietary Allowance for many nutrients. DID YOU KNOW… Kid’s Daily One™ ChewableQUEST MULTIVITAMINS V 2011 According to the Canadian Community Health Survey of 2004, 7 out of 10 children aged 4 to 8 don’t eat the recommended daily requirement of vegetables and fruits, and one-third of children aged 4 to 9 don’t consume the daily requirement of milk products. Several studies support the efficacy of multivitamin and mineral supplementation for children. A study reported in the British Journal of Nutrition in 2008 showed that daily supplements of multivitamins and minerals may improve the brain function of children. In addition, as reported in the journal Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Review in 2001, a review of 13 studies investigating the influence of a multivitamin and mineral supplement on intelligence in children found that 10 of the studies reported a positive effect.

SIDE EFFECTS: No side effects expected at recommended dosage. INTERACTIONS AND SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS:Consult a health care practitioner if the child has a serious illness or is taking any medications. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS: Nutritional supplements should always be kept out of reach of children.
