Comprehensive Childrens vitamin
« on: September 18, 2009, 10:08:55 PM » by NinaS

Hey everyone,
I amtrying to find a good childrens vitamin. Preferably an all natural/organic one. I have 2 & 3 yr olds. Thanks for any info!

Check out Beeyoutiful's SuperKids, in berry or orange flavor. A liquid that tastes yummy, and is sweetened w/ xylitol, so it's good for their teeth too! My girls (almost 3 and 4 1/2) really like the berry flavor (it has a girl, the orange has a boy). I buy mine from here: More Than Alive

Just look over to the right side of their main page and under the Categories you'll see 'Beeyoutiful'. I also buy my Supermom vitamins, and many other Beeyoutiful products you'll see mentioned on wtm, like TummyTuneup and Berry Well, from MoreThanAlive.

Isn't that on every mom's mind. Tongue

Sometimes i just get too overwhelmed by how many vitamins are out there...sheesh! Anyway, i just wanted to tell you the vitamin that i just ordered for my kiddos based on some things said on welltellme. They are by LifeSource natural and as i understand are the same vitamins that Body by God used to do. They are non allergenic and they were 14.99 for a 6 mos supply for my 5 yr old. They dont have all the "green" stuff in them just the basics but i add other vitamins w/ it to try and make a more complete vitamin. Their website is lifesource4life.com

Nina S. I use Rainbow Lights

and I also like NOWS chewable
http://www.luckyvitamin.com/item/itemKey/49739

and this is the same as Super Kid
http://www.luckyvitamin.com/item/itemKey/49439

Many of Beeyoutiful products are actually NOW products, so if you are needing to save some money Lucky has some great deals on NOW products. (or any products for that matter) I always check there first. For instance their NOW multi vit liquid comes in Orange and Berry and is only $10 instead of $19! I love Morethanalive.com, but if you go more directly to the source (NOW) you can save some money!

Nina, I've called NOW's contact # before 888-669-3663
they have great customer service. And again, Super Kid is NOW's liquid multy repackaged. So you could call NOW and ask about their multy liquid I linked above and they might be able to help. i would imagine you'd just give 1/2 of the amount of the 4 year old. That is what I would do if I wanted to use that.

Hi, how can I confirm that NOW is the same as Superkids? I looked at the nutrition facts and they are different sized doses and different amnts of ingrd. Now is 1T superkids is 1t- for the same ages. I would love to pay the cheaper price but it sounds too good to be true. Thanks in advance!

That is a thread where its talked about...I also list ALL the NOW equilivents to the Beeyoutiful products as far as I can see it. The thing you must remember is for NOW its an adult liquid (I TBSP), but they recommmend 1 tsp for kids 4 and old. Since beeyoutiful uses it for a kids vit it only list the 1 tsp recommendation...so everything beeyoutiful has will need to be multiplied by 3 to be the same amount as the NOW> Last I did that...they were the same. You could compare again...MAYBE things have changed? Although I doubt it. I think its just the measurement differencs. So compare the Beeyoutiful amount x3 and that should equal the NOW amount...

Hi mommie, do you know which NOW is the supermom = and the superdad? The old links are broken and the vit I find at NOW doesn't have as much of each ingredient, even if I multiply by 2. Maybe I have the wrong one, it is very confusing. Thanks!
