Maybe it’s just that I am approaching 40, or the fact that we’re in a pandemic, but my medicine cabinet and morning routine of taking supplements borderlines on a 90-year olds. It’s not blood pressure pills and cholesterol, but herbs, immune support, minerals, vitamins and more.
Being plant-based, I take B-12 supplements on top of other vitamins (cause age and pandemic!) that help my immune system stay ready to fight off anything that we might come in contact with. We live in NYC, so just riding in the elevator of our building is full of germs!
But what about my son – do kids need all these vitamins too?
Even when school is in session like usual, kids always get the sniffles, so why not keep their immune systems reinforced for cold and flu season? One of my favorite daily supplements for Max is Country Life Gut Connection Kids Immune Balance. Immune Balance™ is a scientifically formulated blend of prebiotics balanced with other immune-supporting ingredients to support a strong & healthy immune system and improve gut microbiome health for children ages four and up.
Are your vitamins and supplements what they say they are?
Let’s roll back a little – there were a lot of studies done a couple of years ago that showed many over-the-counter supplements were not quite what they said they were. They weren’t harmful, but you were really just eating filler and none of the good stuff. Some tests proved that the supplements didn’t even possess the actual vitamins they claimed to have!
So it’s important to really trust your source. We love Country Life because they are made right here in Long Island, New York. They are certified organic and produce vegan products. They were also non-GMO tested in 2017. That’s a company you can feel good about.
They have a great kids line that also includes:
- Gut Balance, Kids Digestive Balance (helps with bloating and discomfort – and improves weekly bowel movements)
- Gut Balance, Kids Cognitive Balance (helps support neurotransmitter creation in the brain)
- Gut Connection, Kids Sleep Balance (along with a seamless combination of helpful gut-focused ingredients, each serving contains Lactium, a patented bioactive peptide coming from milk, used widely in Europe to help reduce stress so that your kids can fall asleep faster & longer)
