Summer is full of sunshine and freedom, but all that activity can be draining for little bodies (and minds)!. From irregular routines to ice cream overload, it can be tricky to make sure kids are getting everything they need to stay healthy, happy and energised.
That is where kid-friendly supplements come in, a simple, stress-free way to fill nutritional gaps, support immune function and keep kids thriving all summer long.
Let’s break down some of the best supplements to support your little ones and how to sneak them in for even the pickiest eaters.
Are your children getting the right multivitamins this summer?
Multivitamins help bridge nutritional gaps, especially when meals become more spontaneous during school holidays. Key nutrients in a quality children’s multivitamin can support:
• Normal energy metabolism
• Immune system function
• Cognitive development
• Growth and bone health
Try our Children’s Formula. Metabolics Children’s Formula is a premium-quality supplement offering a comprehensive blend of vitamins and minerals for children. Formulated to support growth, development, and immunity, this children’s formula is carefully balanced to provide essential micronutrients in their most bioavailable forms.
Could Omega-3 help boost your child's focus and mood over the holidays?
Omega-3 fatty acids play an important role in supporting brain development, mood regulation and attention in growing children.
Look for:
• Omega-3 in liquid or soft gels
• DHA + EPA blends for best results
We offer Omega-3 in soft gels with the added vitamin E to help with its effectiveness, or a vegan/vegetarian form in liquid called Sacha Inchi Oil.
How can you help your child avoid summer sniffles?
With all the outdoor play, group activities and travel, kids are exposed to various immune challenges. Supplements with nutrients known to support normal immune function can be a helpful part of their summer routine.
Top immune supportive ingredients include:
• Vitamin C
• Zinc
• Elderberry
• Probiotics
Try our Vitamin D for kids with Vitamin A. Metabolics Vitamin D for kids with Vitamin A has been formulated to deliver a balanced blend of vitamin A and vitamin D to support the normal function of the immune system, amongst other physiological functions.
Simple Support for Supercharged Days
With all the running, jumping, snacking and sunshine, summer can be physically demanding for growing bodies. The right nutritional support can help your child:
• Stay energised
• Support concentration
• Maintain immune defences
• Wind down more easily at bedtime
All while making the most of every moment summer has to offer.
