While
your children are growing and maturing the nutrients they consume play
a critical role in ensuring not only robust health but also their proper
development both physically and mentally.
Traditional
multivitamins for children are designed to be taken once a day and they
include a basic combination of a few vitamins and minerals. Unfortunately,
our children’s nutritional needs are anything but basic. In fact,
you could argue that at no other time during your life is the intake
of nutrients more important than during childhood. With that in mind
the Progressive Chewable Multi for Kids goes far beyond the limited
scope of conventional children’s multis and offers a more comprehensive
strategy for supporting the nutritional needs of active children:
Specifically Designed
for Children – Although vitamins and minerals are the cornerstone
of this multi, a uniquely tailored array of essential fatty acids, whole
fruit and vegetable concentrates, digestive enzymes and green food concentrates
allow this formulation to address a number of additional nutritional
challenges that our children face.
Divided Doses –
Our bodies aren’t designed to be nourished in one large dose once
a day. Without question, smaller more frequent meals allows for better
utilization of the nutritional value of our food. The same applies to
the vitamin supplements that we consume. As well, a number of nutrients
have relatively short life spans in our system and need to be replenished
more often than once a day.
Professionally Formulated
– The Progressive Chewable Multi for Kids was formulated with the
assistance of a renowned naturopathic doctor. Each component was chosen
for its compatibility and harmony within the entire formulation. This,
in turn offers great nutrition for kids, and peace of mind for parents.
Naturally Flavoured
and Sweetened – Many popular children’s multi’s contain
large amounts of sugar and are unfortunately both artificially flavored
and colored. In contrast, our children’s multi contains a combination
of natural berry flavors and is sweetened with a blend of pure ingredients
that includes honey powder and organic maple syrup.
Airtight Packaging
– All of the Progressive Nutritional Therapies products are packaged
using a two-step sealing process. The clear outer seal offers tamperproof
protection while an additional inner induction seal provides a secure,
airtight barrier guaranteeing product potency and freshness.
Although
a balanced diet provides a sound nutritional base, a high quality multivitamin
supplement offers additional essential nutrients in a form specifically
designed to target the health needs of a developing child. Research
has shown that children with better nutritional habits experience improved
developmental growth, mental and physical function, as well as an increased
immune response. A multivitamin supplement is critical in the formative
years as children do not normally eat enough of the foods (fruits and
vegetables) that provide them with the much needed vitamins and minerals
for optimal growth and development. Unfortunately, our children are
constantly exposed to visually enticing but nutritionally deficient
refined, fried, fast, junk food, snacks and soft drinks. Even the most
nutritionally vigilant parent cannot be 100% certain what nutrients
are in the foods that their children consume.
Progressive Chewable
Multi for Kids offers a comprehensive strategy for supporting the unique
nutritional needs of active children. It features a synergistic combination
of vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, and fruit and vegetable
concentrates in a delicious, natural summer berry flavour. Divided doses
allow for moderate potencies to be taken more frequently for improved
absorption. Progressive Chewable Multi for Kids contains no artificial
flavours, colours, or sweeteners, and has no hidden ingredients. This,
in turn offers great nutrition for kids and peace of mind for parents.
100% Quality
Assurance

Therapies Vitamin and Mineral Supplements are manufactured in Canada

from around the world.
With our extensively
researched ingredients, finely detailed formulations, and 100% quality

The Progressive
Multiple Vitamin and Mineral formula for Kids contains the finest specialty
and active ingredients including:
Ester
C with Bioflavonoids – this patented form of calcium ascorbate
offers greater absorption and retention than all other forms of vitamin
C. It has a neutral pH (non-acidic) and will have a longer lifespan
in your child’s system. Bioflavonoids work synergistically with
Ester C for increased antioxidant and immune support.
Mineral Citrates
– only a small percentage of the minerals that we normally consume
are actually absorbed and utilized by our bodies. However, minerals
in citrate form have a much higher absorption rate are transported into
our cells far more efficiently.
Green Food Concentrates
– this comprehensive combination of highly alkaline, nutrient-rich
green foods includes alfalfa, spirulina, spinach, wheat grass and wakame.
These concentrates improve the pH of the body and detoxify impurities
normally found in a child’s highly processed (acidic) diet. These
health-promoting foods are often not consumed by kids because of their
taste.
Digestive Support
– these include the plant-based digestive enzymes bromelain and
papain, as well as Bioperine® the patented piperine extract that
improves the passage of nutrients across the intestinal wall and into
the blood stream, thus increasing the absorption of the entire formula.
Fruit & Vegetable
Concentrates – this unique blend of whole food concentrates
includes acerola berries, cranberries, blueberries, kiwi, pineapple,
papaya, carrot, kale, kelp, broccoli and tomato. Each of these components
provides potent antioxidant protection to fend off free radicals, support
healthy immune function and protect a child’s body against disease.
EFA Complex
– the essential fatty acids found in flax seed, sunflower (CLA),
and fish oils play a very important role in maintaining healthy immune,
cardiovascular and brain function. In children, EFAs are especially
beneficial for improving focus and concentration, and sharpening mental
acuity.
