Multi vitamins and minerals
These children's vitamins contain a special blend of vitamins and minerals, backed by science, to support normal development and growth of teeth, gums, bones and also support cognitive function and a normal immune system.
More than just a multivitamin for children, Champion Chewies also contain:
Blackcurrant
A much underestimated superfruit, packed with nutrients and rich in vitamin C and antioxidants. Blackcurrants are also a good source of potassium, calcium, phosphorous, phyto-nutrients, iron and vitamin E. Another benefit found by Researchers in New Zealand is a compound which may help to improve breathing in some types of asthma.
Rosehip
Another excellent source of bio-available vitamin C and bioflavonoids and rosehip also contains vitamins A, B1, B2, B3 and K and also iron.
Beetroot
We should all eat more beetroot! Rich in potent antioxidants and many nutrients, including magnesium, manganese, folic acid, potassium, sodium, phosphorous, soluble fibre, vitamins A, B & C, calcium, iron, betaine and silica. Great for fighting infection, supporting the immune system and stimulating the re-oxygenation of cells and production of new blood cells. Beetroot really is amazing!
Elderberry
Another fruit very rich in vitamin C plus vitamins A and B and also potassium and flavonoids. On top of the vitamins, elderberries have the benefit of anthocyanins which have more antioxidant effect than vitamin E and C and can enhance immune function by boosting the production of cytokines.
Black elderberry
A great daily tonic for antioxidant and immune support with flavonoids with a high oxygen radical absorption capacity (ORAC) that can assist with the body's natural defenses and cell communication.
Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA)
Found in the grey matter of the brain and the eye retina, DHA supports the function of brain cell membranes, which is important for transmission of brain signals. Deficiencies in DHA have been linked to dementia, depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), visual problems and memory loss.
Lactobaciillus Acidophilus
A naturally occurring gut bacteria which has a wealth of historical research showing benefits in a variety of different areas of health.
Every ingredient in VIBE Children's Vitamins has a reason to be there and you can feel safe in the knowledge that your child is getting added nutrition with every zingy blackcurrant flavout chewy vitamin.
