Vitamin D and children

Children are also becoming Vitamin D deficient. Many children have an indoor lifestyle as they play computer games rather than play outdoors and get driven to school rather than walk. Sun avoidance practices and excessive use of sunscreen also contribute.

Babies born to mothers who have low levels of Vitamin D will have the deficiency passed onto them. If a mother has low Vitamin D while breastfeeding, it will be difficult for the baby to get enough Vitamin D.

OsteVit-D helps children get off to a strong start.

OsteVit-D® Children’s Oral Drops have a pleasant butterscotch flavour that kids will love and are convenient and easy to administer. The bottle has an integrated dropper for easy use. Gently invert the bottle and it will automatically dispense one drop containing 200 IU of Vitamin D3 when tipped at a 45 degree angle. The recommended dosage is two drops per day or as recommended by your doctor. There is no measuring required and it does not have to be stored in the fridge. You can add it to a teaspoon of milk or juice.
