In recent years there has been an increasing focus on improving childrens diet as part of an overall health strategy. According to the National Nutrition and Dietary Survey of young people aged 4 to 18 years, published in 2000, there is evidence that young people in the UK are consuming far too much saturated fat, salt, sugar, and far too few fruits and vegetables. The National Heart Forum (NHF) has consistently identified food marketing to children as a fundamental issue contributing to the problems of poor diet among the children. The NHF states, that a particular worrying phenomenon could be described as the normalisationof snack and occasional foods into the mainstream diet of children. Sales data analysis, by investment analysts JP Morgan, shows that snack consumption has risen by 240% in the past 20 years. Young children have different needs and require the right kinds of tasty, nutritious foods to encourage healthy growth as their bodies are developing faster than at any other time in their lives. Vega childrens multivitamin and minerals formula provides a range of vitamins and minerals that may support childrens health.Suggested UseChildren 4-15 years old - One tablet to be chewed daily with food.

Supplied in dropper bottles for quick and easy use, Liquid Vitamin D offers 400IU per 0.5ml. This is a vegan D3 source and is gently flavoured with natural orange oil giving a pleasant taste.
Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that contributes to the normal function of the immune system and blood calcium levels which in turn supports the maintenance of normal bones and teeth. As fear of sun-exposure has grown and lifestyles have become more sedentary, exposure to the sun has dropped dramatically and vitamin D deficiency and the incidence of rickets has surged.
The skin cannot create vitamin D if covered in sunscreen or clothing, it is thought that a sun cream with SPF15 will reduce the skins ability to synthesize vitamin D by more than 95%. Many older people and those from the communities who tend to wear more modest clothing are amongst the population groups most likely to suffer deficiency in vitamin D. Dietary sources include fortified foods, eggs and fatty fish.
The Government advises that people who are housebound or cover their skin for long periods, all pregnant and breastfeeding women, people over 65 years of age and infants from 6 months to aged 5 should take vitamin D supplements.
Directions:
Using the dropper add 0.5ml daily to food or drink (or directly into mouth) or as recommended by your health professional.

Extended InfoIt is increasingly hard for parents to ensure that their children eat a balanced diet these days. Even if a parent succeeds in keeping junk foods away from their children it is still difficult to provide a diet with adequate amounts of all nutrients due to factors such as depleted soil mineral levels and long storage time of fruits and vegetables. It is for these reasons that nutritionists often recommend children to supplement their diet with a multivitamin and mineral. Vega Childrens Multivitamin provides a range of vitamins and minerals that are important for growth and development. It has been specially designed for those under 12 years of age. The natural fruit flavours and chewable animal-shaped tablets make the supplement attractive to children.IngredientsVitamin C (Ascorbic Acid & Sodium Ascorbate) 60mg Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide) 14mg Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid) 5mg Vitamin E (D-Alpha Tocopherol) 7iu 5mg Zinc (Gluconate) 2mg Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) 1.3mg Vitamin A (3500iu) 1.05mg Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) 1mg Iron (Ferrous Fumarate) 1mg Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) 0.8mg Folic Acid (Folacin) 50 gVitamin D3 (400iu) 10 gVitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) 3 gTabletted with Fructose, Vegetable Magnesium Stearate, Natural Flavourings and Colours (Orange, Lemon and Cherry).
