Great-tasting, kid-approved and sugar free Supports kids from 1 year old and up Comprehensive kid’s multivitamin and multimineral Who Needs Kids Multivitamin Chewable Assess each statement below. If you relate to one or more, then Kid’s Multivitamin Chewable may be the multivitamin supplement your child needs † : My kid is 1 years old or above. I’m looking for a great-tasting, healthy multivitamin they will ask for vs me having to fight them. I need a kid’s multivitamin with iron to support healthy levels of red blood cells. My kid has MTHFR and does well with L-methylfolate and methylcobalamin. Screens are present in my kid’s life. I want a chewable multivitamin that supports healthy eyesight. Vitamin D and K are an important combination for my kid’s health. It would be ideal if their multivitamin has 1,000 IU of vitamin D and 30 mcg of Vitamin K2 as MK7. Immune support is top of mind. I need a kid’s multivitamin that uses healthy amounts and quality forms of zinc, selenium, vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin C, vitamin E. My kid has a sensitive stomach. They need vitamins and minerals that are gentle on the stomach, and well-absorbed. On bad days, I find that my kid has low mood, seems a bit aloof and out of it, and tends to gravitate towards gaming and junk food. If a number of those resonated with you, then Kid’s Multivitamin Chewable is something that you should seriously consider. † If none of the statements above relate to your child’s current life situation, then Kid’s Multivitamin Chewable is most likely not something they need right now. Why Kids Multivitamin Chewable Works During your child’s growth and development, their genes need nutritional support for numerous important pathways. One extremely important pathway is called methylation. Methylation encourages healthy: growth mood heart development brain development histamine levels detoxification of arsenic and mercury Special forms of folate and B12 are required for methylation to occur. † Kid’s Multivitamin Chewable contains methylcobalamin and L-methylfolate (also known as L-5-MTHF) which support the methylation pathway. † It is estimated that over 50% of the population has a mutation in their MTHFR gene. The MTHFR gene produces the body’s most active form of folate called L-methylfolate (L-5-MTHF). MTHFR genetic mutations, vitamin B2 deficiencies and synthetic folic acid, dirty this gene down thereby causing folate deficiency. Supplementing with the natural form of folate as L-methylfolate (L-5-MTHF) bypasses the problematic MTHFR gene. This supports methylation by allowing folate to flow into the methylation pathway via the MTR enzyme. † Ironically, the synthetic form of folate ( folic acid) can further slow the MTHFR gene. This can even lead to folate deficiency! You’ll never see folic acid in any of Seeking Health’s dietary supplements. Instead, we prioritize natural and bioavailable forms of folate. These include 5-MTHF (methylated) and methyl-free folinic acid (calcium folinate). † Key features of Kid’s Multivitamin Chewable: † Growth & Development is supported with an ideal ratio of essential vitamins, minerals, and trace minerals. These synergistically support optimal development and function of the nervous system, brain, hormones, bones, muscles, and organs. Methylation support is provided by methylated folate known as L-methylfolate (L-5-MTHF) and methyl B12. Vitamin B2, known as riboflavin, also support the healthy functioning of the MTHFR gene. Vitamin B6 (as P-5-P) also supports healthy glutathione production which, in turn, supports methylation. Antioxidants support a healthy immune response. We include vitamin C , vitamin E, vitamin A, CoQ10, L-carnitine and zinc. Eye & Vision support from 2 forms of vitamin A and lutein, a yellow carotenoid from marigold flower. Supporting the eyes is particularly important with increased exposure to the irritating blue light emitted from screens. Healthy blood sugar & Insulin support is provided from chromium, zinc, CoQ10 and carnitine. Bone health support from the combination of vitamin D, vitamin K2 as MK7, boron. Chelated minerals support healthy absorption, and non-gut irritating, of minerals. Red blood cells and White blood cell support from iron, folate as folinic acid, B12 as methylcobalamin, vitamin A, copper and zinc. Immune support from vitamin A, C, D, E, zinc, selenium and the antioxidants.

Dr. Lynch’s Tips Knowing when to give your kid a multivitamin is an important skill to acquire. Contrary to popular belief, multivitamins should not be used every day. A multivitamin is a supplement to your kid’s diet, environment and lifestyle. If your kid’s diet, environment and lifestyle are depleting or not providing enough nutrients, then supplementing with Kid’s Multivitamin Chewable is needed. If your kid is eating very well, on vacation, relaxed and in a good mood with good energy, then, during these times, consider skipping their multivitamin. To give you an idea, I typically give my sons a multivitamin a few times a week. However, if I notice they are dirtying their genes by staying up way too late, changing time zones, eating poorly or being very active with sports, I will support them with their multivitamin. If I notice them in a good mood in the morning and full of energy, I don’t give them their multivitamin. Why? They are showing signs of clean genes. Clean genes already have sufficient nutrients on board. Here are moments that help you identify when to give your kid a serving of Kid’s Multivitamin Chewable: They are not eating as healthy as you would like. They are participating in sports. In the morning, they are dragging with low energy and low mood. In the early afternoon, they are brain dead and tired. Key Tip: I really like giving ½ the suggested serving size with breakfast. I do not like giving a full serving size as it can be too stimulating causing your kid to be irritable and impatient. For kids 1 to 3 years old, this means you cut the chewable tablet in ½ and put the other ½ back in the bottle. Only give the other ½ of the suggested serving size in the afternoon, no later than 1 pm, if, and only if, you notice they are dragging or need some support for after school activities. If you notice at bedtime they are restless, having difficulty falling asleep, then do not give them their afternoon portion. If you didn’t give them their afternoon portion and they are still restless before bed, then consider giving them ½ the suggested serving with their breakfast. If you already gave them ½ the suggested serving, did you need to give them the multivitamin in the first place? Should you have not given it to them and you did because you didn’t pay attention to how they were acting? You have to pay attention. Side Effects: Have you noticed your kid experiencing any of these since starting this multivitamin: more irritable or anxious having headaches more frequently difficulty falling asleep If so, pause using the Kid’s Multivitamin Chewable for a few days. See if those symptoms go away or improve significantly. If you see your kid’s symptoms improve by stopping the multivitamin, here are some very useful tips to apply: Use the supplement less frequently. Pay better attention to how they are feeling before you give them their multivitamin. They may only need it a few days a week. If you’re already only using it a few days a week, go down to two days a week. Reduce the serving size that you gave by ½. For example, if you gave 1 chewable, give ½ a chewable with breakfast – and only breakfast. What other supplements are you using? I often see parents giving additional B vitamins. Unless advised by your health professional, do not give additional B vitamins along with our multivitamins. They are getting sufficient amounts already. Stop using the Kid’s Multivitamin Chewable. Switch to the Kid’s Multivitamin Chewable MF. The MF version is less stimulating to the brain. This is why we have the two versions for both kids and adults. MF stands for ‘methyl-free’. One of my sons does very well with the Kid’s Multivitamin Chewable. The other two prefer the MF version. As a parent, having both versions handy is useful. Every kid is different which is why we offer the two versions. The key is really paying attention to your kid. How are they doing before you give them their multivitamin? It literally takes 30 seconds of observation, a 20 second mental recap of how they slept and ate the day before along with 10 seconds of mentally reviewing their upcoming day’s events. With these tips, you will be nourishing your kid and your relationship with them. Warnings Accidental overdose of iron-containing products is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under 6.
