“Kids Need Clean Labels Too! What Parents Should Check”
Share
Did you know that additives, artificial sweeteners, and unnecessary fillers are commonly found in some children’s supplements? A study in Nutrients (2021) highlighted that children are more sensitive to additives like artificial dyes and preservatives, which can affect behavior and allergies (Stevens et al., 2021).
When shopping for kids’ vitamins, always check the ingredient list. Look for trusted certifications: USDA Organic, Non-GMO, or third-party tested labels. Clean labels mean you know exactly what your child is taking — with no hidden surprises.
Tip for Parents:
If your child has food sensitivities, choose supplements free from allergens like gluten, soy, or dairy. Less is more when it comes to kids!
