Children's vitamins

What are children's vitamins?

Children's vitamins are dietary supplements specially designed to complement children's daily nutrient intake. They contain important vitamins and minerals that can be difficult to obtain in sufficient amounts through diet alone, especially during periods of rapid growth or poor eating habits. Children's vitamins come in various forms such as chewable tablets, drops or capsules and are tailored to children's needs and taste preferences. The purpose of children's vitamins is to contribute to a good nutritional balance and provide support in everyday life, without replacing a varied and nutritious diet.
