Carlson Baby's Super Daily D3 - Baby Vitamin D Drops, 400 IU per Drop, 1-Year Supply, Unflavoured, 365 Drops

Understanding Vitamin D for Infant Health

Vitamin D is essential for infants as it contributes to the normal absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus, supporting the maintenance of normal bones and teeth. In addition, it plays a role in normal muscle function and the function of the immune system—both vital during early development. Carlson Baby's Super Daily D3 delivers cholecalciferol (vitamin D3), the same form produced by the body after exposure to sunlight, recognised for its high bioavailability.

Why Choose Vitamin D Drops for Your Baby?

In the UK, health authorities recommend that all breastfed infants receive a daily vitamin D supplement of 8.5–10 micrograms (340–400 IU) from birth. Even for formula-fed babies, adequate intake is important, as formula may not provide enough. Carlson Baby's Super Daily D3 offers a convenient single-drop solution, with a full year's supply in one bottle, ensuring your little one gets the consistent support needed for normal growth and development.

Key Benefits of Baby's Super Daily D3

• Bone and Teeth Health: Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth.
• Immune System Support: Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
• Muscle Function: Vitamin D contributes to normal muscle function.
• Easy to Administer: A single unflavoured drop can be placed directly in the mouth, on a spoon, or mixed with food or drink, making it simple for even the fussiest babies.

Is Vitamin D3 Safe for Infants?

When used as directed, vitamin D3 is safe for infants. The 400 IU (10 µg) dosage is consistent with UK guidelines and is well-tolerated. Exceeding the recommended dose should be avoided without advice from a health care professional. If your baby has any medical conditions or is on medication, consult your paediatrician before use. Always store the bottle out of reach of children and follow the directions for use.

How to Use Baby's Super Daily D3 Drops

Each drop provides precisely 400 IU (10 µg) of vitamin D3, the recommended daily amount for infants. Just give one drop per day. For breastfed babies, place the drop on the mother's nipple or on a dummy. For formula-fed babies, the drop can be added to a bottle of milk or to their food. The unflavoured formula means there is no taste interference, and the liquid allows for flexible administration.
