MegaFood, Derry, NH, introduced a new collection of Kids Nutrient Booster Powders. The collection is available in three new formulations—Kids Daily Multi, Kids Daily Immune and Kids Daily B-Centered—all of which are made with farm fresh whole foods, herbs and FoodState Nutrients to support the health and well-being of children five years of age and older.
The company suggested just one scoop of Kids Nutrient Booster Powder could help fortify a child’s smoothie, drink or snack.
“It can be challenging for parents to find ways for their children to receive balanced nourishment on a daily basis,” said Erin Stokes, ND and medical director at MegaFood. “MegaFood’s new line of Kids Nutrient Booster Powders are a great way to fill any nutritional gaps a child may have during important phases of growth. Designed to be blended into foods and beverages, the powders are also great for children who have difficulty swallowing or resist taking vitamin tablets.”
The new MegaFood Kids Nutrient Booster Powder Collection includes three unique formulations to meet the changing nutritional needs of children throughout the year:
“Today in the multivitamin category, the majority of products are a gummy or chewable form with added sugars. Although easier for children to accept, these forms of multi’s can add at least one cup of sugar per month to a child’s diet!,” said Stacey Gillespie, director of product marketing at MegaFood. “Not only does a high intake of sugar place additional stress on a child’s growing body, but it has a negative impact on dental health and maintaining balanced blood sugar levels. As a mom of two, it was important to develop multivitamins that offer complete nutrition without any added sugars, preservatives, flavorings or colorings.”
The Kids Nutrient Booster Powders are certified free of gluten, dairy, soy, pesticides and herbicides. They are suitable for vegetarian and allergen-free diets.
