These are all the benefits supplements can have on a kids’ health and wellbeing

Bad behavior, lack of concentration, fatigue, and disrupted sleep in children can all be signs that they are lacking certain nutrients. A healthy diet, exercise, and regular sleep routine all contribute to the overall well-being of your child and their continued development. If your toddler, child, or teen has been going through a picky eater phase and you’ve started to give them a multivitamin, here are the 5 signs it’s working effectively. 

1. Improved Mood 

Vitamin D is a key component for behavioral regulation and brain function, while low levels of vitamin B6 and B12 result in irritability and emotional instability. Improved mood, focus, and concentration after sufficient intakes of these vitamins, are all signs your child may have been lacking in these nutrients and that the multivitamin is working. 

2. Increased Energy 

Vitamin D and B2 are essential for oxygen transport in the body. If your child is showing a boost in energy after taking a supplement containing these nutrients, chances are they weren’t consuming enough to support red blood cell transportation and calcium absorption, both of which prevent tiredness. 

3. Stronger Immune System (getting sick less frequently)

Less sick days from school and quicker recovery times, is a massive sign a multivitamin is having a positive effect on your child’s immune system and ability to fight off any bugs and viruses. Vitamin C, D, and A are all vital to help the body defend against any illnesses.  

4. Healthier Skin 

The skin is the largest organ of the body and the only one we can see. One of the first signs a multivitamin is working for a kid is a brighter and healthier complexion. If a child continues to have dull, pale skin then the cause may not be diet related. 

5. Better Concentration 

Complex B vitamins are essential for cognitive function, while magnesium supports both attention and stress management. Both can have a positive impact on a child’s ability to focus in class, on school work and specific tasks.
