How to Make Sure Your Kids are Getting Enough Vitamin D

 

What vitamins do you give your kids? Always check with your treating physician but this is what I do...

I provide my kids with a well-balanced diet which gives them a range of vitamins and nutrients. However, vitamin D is something that even living in sunny LA☀️, our bodies just don't make enough. During the summer when my kids are outside in bathing suits and getting a healthy amount of sun exposure, then I personally don’t give vitamin d3/k2. It is an essential vitamin in order to absorb specific nutrients. For example, your body must have vitamin D to absorb calcium and promote bone growth.

Starting at birth, it's important to give your kids vitamin D drops in breastfeeding babies (after one in formula fed babies). I give my kids a spray of the Mary Ruth Organics Vitamin D3K2 spray (use code Use Discount code MRODRORGMOM) in the corner of their mouth (not the center of their mouth because they will gag).

Also, note that when foods are fortified with vitamin D, not all forms of vitamin D are created equal. Some are cheaper than others and thus not as easily absorbed into the body.
