Différentes formes de vitamines pour les enfants

Your child’s health routine can be as extensive and targeted as your own routine. Their young bodies and minds do have a specific set of nutritional needs for development, vision, immunity, cognition, and gut health. If you're left wondering if your picky eater or school aged child is getting enough nutrients in the day, you are not alone. Organika has formulated a kid’s natural supplement lineup; which covers everything from multivitamins, zinc and probiotics to specific formulations for vision and cognition. Give your kids a healthy head start. DIET IS THE FOUNDATION TO YOUR FAMILY'S HEALTH It’s no secret that due to time constraints, the world of quick, packaged and processed convenience foods came to be. Convenience and processed foods are often void of nutrients, in comparison to eating whole foods. In addition, sugar, carbonated beverages, and junk food can leach vitamins and minerals away from growing bodies. Eating a whole foods diet is key! Supplementation may help to boost overall health. Boost Your Kid's Overall Health Multivitamins can help fill nutritional gaps. Picky eaters may not always be getting the required amount of vitamins or minerals that the growing body needs at a young age. Additionally, if your child has a preexisting condition or requires medication, there may be concern for nutrients being depleted. Always consult with a health care practitioner before adding supplements to your children’s routine. Organika Li'l Kids Multi Vitamin Spray contains a broad range of vitamins to provide your child with a solid base. Vitamin A, which contributes to the health and strength of the surface of the eyes, mucous membranes and skin surrounding the eyes. These serve as vigilant barriers against bacteria and viruses ,reducing risk of eye and respiratory infections. For developing immune systems, there are vitamins C and Vitamin D which are vital for antimicrobial response, a key part of immune protection. Vitamin C strengthens immune defenses and keeps the immune system responsive. It is also a powerful antioxidant, a key ingredient in combating damage from free radicals and preventing oxidative stress. Oxidative stress can lead to asthma, diabetes and inflammatory disorders like eczema. Vitamins B6 and B12 are included to support energy metabolism and iodine for a healthy thyroid. Thyroid hormones are key for healthy growth and development, as well as heart, muscle and digestive function. Supporting the thyroid is vital for cognitive development and maintenance of strong bones. All these nutrients come in a convenient spray, that is non-GMO and gluten-free! It’s a no-fuss way to administer essential nutrients. Li'l Kids Multi Vitamin Spray has earned the Parent Tested Parent Approved seal; parents love this multi! Support Your Child's Immune System Target immune health directly with Organika Kids Liquid Zinc with Vitamin C or Li'l Kids Zinc Spray with Vitamin C (for the little ones in a no-fuss spray format). This combination supports over 300 enzymatic reactions in your child’s body while focusing on immune function and wound healing. It also regulates immune responses, preparing them to protect and prevent overactivity. These two layers of immune defense are also directly linked to zinc levels and can become impaired if we become deficient. Kids Liquid Zinc with Vitamin C supports the immune system and encourages the body’s natural ability to metabolize nutrients. Vitamin C adds antioxidants to counteract free radicals and support your child’s general good health. Probiotics and Immune Health WHY GUT HEALTH IS KEY TO IMMUNE HEALTH Antibody production and its abundance is based on healthy ratios of probiotic bacteria in the gut. 70% of our immune system is housed here! Your baby’s microbiome development started at birth, passed on from the mother, and as a result, their immune health starts to develop. The proliferation of good gut bacteria supports a healthy microbiome by ensuring the ratios of “good” to “bad” bacteria stay in check. Organika's Baby Probiotic Drops With Vitamin D should be a part of your child’s ongoing bowel and immune support. It can reduce the occurrence of colic in breastfed infants and provide the gut microbiome with diverse microorganisms. This is also another supplement that has won the Parent-tested Parent-approved seal! As your child grows, continue to support their gut flora’s delicate balance with our easy-to-take Kids Probiotic Chewable Tablets. These delicious, tropical pineapple-flavoured tablets contain 1 billion CFU of clinically proven live probiotic strains. Multiple strains diversify our good gut bacteria and strengthen immune protection. Guard their brain health as well, and reduce the occurrence of inflammation by making these chewable probiotic tablets part of their daily healthcare routine. Support your Child’s Cognitive Health Supporting brain health with Kids Liquid Plant Based DHA will have your little ones meeting all developmental milestones with ease! Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) are omega-3 fatty acids that work together to assist in the formation of neurotransmitters and reduce inflammation that impedes healthy function. DHA supports the growth and development of their whole nervous system. EPA supports cognitive function and reduces inflammatory disorders throughout the body. Obtaining omega-3 fatty acids from food can be challenging, and many children aren’t reaching daily requirements. EPA and DHA are formulated here in specific ratios for maximum benefits. Organika Kids Liquid Plant Based DHA comes in delicious Lemon Burst flavour and are vegan-friendly! Our DHA and EPA, omega-3 fatty acids are sourced from a marine algae called Schizochytrium. Schizochytrium is a freshwater microalgae that is rich in DHA. Fish get their EPA and DHA from microalgae. This plant-based supplement bypasses the consumption of fish and makes for clean and potent omega-3 support! Support Your Child’s Vision Organika omega-3 supplements help prevent dry eyes and other symptoms associated with computer vision syndrome. Constant movement, focusing and reduced blinking associated with screen time leads to computer vision syndrome and eventual degeneration. Omega-3s support the balance of oil, mucus and water required in and around the eyes to maintain even and consistent lubrication. To support and protect your child’s vision, we recommend pairing Kids Liquid Plant-Based DHA with our Kids Vision Chewable Tablets for increased protection! Organika Kids Vision Chewable Tablets contain 2000 IUs of vitamin A and 800 mcg of Beta-carotene per serving. This helps maintain healthy eyesight and improves nighttime vision. Vitamin A plays a vital role in vision. There are two forms of vitamin A; plant-derived and animal-derived. Animal sourced vitamin A is called retinol or “preformed” vitamin A, which is ready for the body to use. Good sources of retinol vitamin A include beef, chicken liver, whole milk and cheese. Plant-derived vitamin A is known as “provitamin A” carotenoids, which are converted in the body. Good sources include carrots, sweet potato, spinach and kale. Beta-carotene is one of the most common and effective versions of provitamin A carotenoid. If your child isn’t getting these sources, a supplement may be the answer. Support Your Child’s Growth, Bones and Teeth Organika’s Kids Liquid Calcium Plus with Vitamins D3 & K2 is designed for a growing child’s everyday needs. Available in a delicious mixed berry flavour, the liquid format is ideal for optimal absorption and convenience. The formulation is for all ages from 1+ (with different doses recommended). Calcium strengthens bone and teeth development while added vitamins and minerals support additional functions in the body. Vitamins D3 & K2 work together to support calcium in the building of healthy bones, they increase the absorption of calcium in the bones, and transport it to the areas it needs to be. Vitamin D also supports immune function and overall health. Magnesium supports healthy nerves, muscles, heart, as well as helping with energy and focus. Zinc supports many functions in the body including immune, skin, and intestinal health. This truly is the supplement that helps your child develop from small to big!

Support learning, thinking and playing with these 5 tips to choosing the right food for kids Feeding kids healthy foods isn’t always easy. New parents often have grand ideas of what they want their children to eat. But when it comes to finding healthy foods for kids that they’ll actually eat, it can be a completely different story. Parents with pre-teens and teens on the other hand, can be so busy they’re often eating on the run or even missing meals. Nutrition can be very complex, but the good news is it doesn’t have to be. Keeping things simple and focusing on the fundamentals will go a long way to supporting your child’s capacity to learn and perform at school and play. Unfortunately, processed foods and sugary drinks surround our kids at school and in TV ads, promoting the rising tide of childhood weight gain and poor health. Obesity rates in children have tripled over the past 30 years and today over 30% of kids are either overweight or obese. The situation is even worse in adults at a whopping 70%! This coincides with a dramatic increase in sugar intake, as well as an alarming rise in prescriptions for depression and attention deficit disorder in children. Almost every high school cafeteria across the country serves pizza, fries and soda pop. Unfortunately, the food choices that are most easily available (and the cheapest) are processed foods – cereals, burgers, fries, sodas, sport drinks, candy, etc. - that are calorically very-dense, but nutrient poor. To support a healthy body and mind, we need to get our kids back on nutrient-dense whole foods. 5 Tips for Choosing the Right Food for Kids The following are my top 5 tips to help provide your kids with the vitamins, minerals and nutrients they need to think, learn and thrive at school and play. 1. Protein at Every Meal (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner) Protein is an essential nutrient, meaning your body cannot make the amino acid building blocks internally and must get them from the diet. Protein helps build red blood cells for energy, immune cells to fight off colds and flu, muscle for overall health and has been shown to support positive mood and reduce behaviour problems. Great options for breakfast include eggs, full-fat plain yogurt, steel-cut oats, nuts and seeds or a protein smoothie. Kids should aim for 20g of protein per meal or about 1-2x the size and thickness of the palm of their hand. Our Enhanced Collagen is great to sneak into your pudding, pasta sauce, as its virtually tasteless and has a high protein content. 2. Increase Healthy Fats Fats are essential for your child’s capacity to learn and thrive at school. If you grew up in the low-fat era of the 1980-90s, it can be difficult to shift gears, but the research here is very clear. Ensuring your child gets their dose of “smart fats” like egg yolks, full-fat dairy (i.e. milk or yogurt), butter or avocado at every meal helps to build a healthy brain and improve learning. Try adding healthy saturated fats like coconut oil into smoothies or cook with extra virgin olive oil to get your kids their daily dose. At least 1-2 “thumb” sizes of fats per meal and don’t worry if you overshoot, kids typically thrive on high “smart” fat diets. 3. Choose Whole Food Carbohydrates Kids need calories to meet the demands of busy days and constant play. The fats mentioned above provide a great source of calories as well as “whole food” carbohydrates like rice, sweet or white potatoes, root vegetables (i.e. beets, carrots, parsnips, etc), oats and whole-grain breads and pastas. If your child has a sensitivity to gluten, modify to gluten-free carbs.) Whole food carbs are also full of fiber to support healthy gut bacteria and keep your child regular. Typically 1-2 “cupped hands” per meal is a good place to start for kids and can be higher depending on their activity level. Do your best to limit processed carbs that come in packages and boxes. 4. Limit Sugar Sugar is not inherently evil, however the levels of sugar added into our food today is quite staggering. The average adult consumes about 160 lb. of sugar per year, (compared to only 40 lb. two generations ago) and kids are following very closely in our foot steps. Sugar is highly palatable, which means our brains naturally crave it and we can eat more and more before we get full. Making things even more challenging, food companies market directly to kids to make their products even more desirable. Limit the amount of added sugar in your child’s diet by cutting back (or cutting out) soda pop, sports drinks, candy, chocolate bars, sugary cereals and sweetened snacks. Try alternatives like replacing regular chocolate bars with dark chocolate (70% or more), choose ice cream made with natural cream (higher in fat), snack on frozen berries or use frozen fruit to make popsicles at home. 5. Limit Processed Foods (i.e. vegetable oils, artificial sweeteners, etc.) It’s not just sugar that is strongly contributing to our nations declining health, it’s also all the processed foods, industrial seed oils, chemical sweeteners and artificial flavourings. You can limit processed foods in your kids diet by shopping on the “outside” of the grocery store, where all the whole foods, fresh veggies and fruit, meat and dairy are located. If you can minimize the middle aisles of the grocery store (i.e. processed foods), you’ll decrease your intake of unhealthy processed foods that contribute to impaired learning, poor behavior and adverse health conditions in children. Kids need the right balance of nutrients to thrive at school and play. Ensuring kids get enough protein, healthy fats and whole food carbs, along with limiting sugars and processed oils, sweeteners and GMOs is a fantastic foundation for health. To make things even simpler, follow this golden rule; if your grandparent could eat it, it’s probably a good choice (if not, do your best to avoid it!). Once you find the right balance, make the time to eat with your kids at least once a day, to make mealtime more than just the food on your plate.
