Did you know?

Most High Street brands provide only low potency vitamins and one or two minerals because taste, not nutrition, is their primary concern. However, Lamberts Multi-Guard for Kids has been developed with a formula using micro-encapsulated nutrients (that masks the flavour of the minerals), plus natural forest fruit flavour to produce chewable tablets that children readily accept. Lamberts use natural xylitol to sweeten these tablets, so the Multi-Guard for Kids formula is aspartame free. It is also sugar free too and will therefore not contribute to tooth decay.

The importance of good nutrition in children:

Good nutrition is important in children, particularly in periods of rapid growth or when the child expends a lot of Energy on sports and other activities. Unfortunately this is the age when certain food dislikes and food fads can threaten the nutritional adequacy of the diet. 

Severe deficiencies of vitamins and minerals may require medical attention and can be very difficult to treat with common over-the-counter Multivitamins. In such situations, special vitamin or mineral forms with much higher potencies are available, either as individual components or as specialized formulations. Multivitamins in large quantities may pose a risk of an acute overdose due to the toxicity of some components, such as Iron. In contrast to iron tablets, which can be lethal to kids, toxicity from multivitamin overdoses are very rare. Provided that proper precautions are taken, there appears to be minimal risk to supplement users of experiencing acute side effects due to excessive intakes of micronutrients, however research is still ongoing in regard to what health effects multivitamins have.
