Many children struggle to get enough vitamin D and K2 from diet and sunlight alone. Zahler's Junior Vitamin D3 + K2 Chewable Tablets offer a simple, delicious way to top up these vital nutrients. With a natural peach apricot flavour, each tablet delivers 2000 IU of vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 to support normal bone development and the immune system—all with less sugar than typical gummy supplements.

Who Needs Vitamin D Supplementation?

Plenty of children do not receive sufficient vitamin D from sun exposure and food, particularly those living in northern latitudes, during winter months, or those who spend most of their time indoors. Children with darker skin tones are also at higher risk of deficiency as melanin reduces the skin's ability to produce vitamin D from sunlight. Picky eaters or those with limited diets may likewise benefit from a supplement to ensure adequate intake for growing bones and a healthy immune system.

Understanding Vitamin D3 and K2

Vitamin D3, known as cholecalciferol, is the form produced by the body upon exposure to sunlight. It contributes to normal absorption of calcium and phosphorus, supporting normal bones and teeth. Vitamin K2 works synergistically to direct calcium to the bones, contributing to normal bone maintenance and blood clotting.

Key Benefits of Junior Vitamin D3 + K2

• Bone and Teeth Support: Vitamin D3 contributes to normal growth and development of bone in children, and vitamin K2 contributes to the maintenance of normal bones.
• Immune Health: Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
• Less Sugar Than Gummies: These chewables contain less sugar, making them a better choice for dental health.
• Vegetarian and Kosher: Suitable for vegetarian families and certified kosher.
• Great Taste: The natural peach apricot flavour makes supplementation a treat.

Recommended Dosage for Children

For children aged 4 and over, one chewable tablet daily provides 2000 IU vitamin D3 and vitamin K2. Follow label guidance and consult a health care professional before starting any new supplement, especially if your child has a medical condition or is taking medication.

Choosing a Quality Vitamin D Supplement

When selecting a supplement for your child, quality matters. Zahler's Junior Vitamin D3 + K2 is manufactured in state-of-the-art GMP-certified facilities. The product is non-GM, certified kosher, and free from gluten, dairy, and soya. Unlike many liquid drops that lack vitamin K2, these chewables provide both nutrients in one convenient tablet. They are also easier to administer than drops or liquids, with no mess and a taste kids love.

Safety and Side Effects

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, so it is important not to exceed the recommended dosage. Taking very high amounts over long periods could lead to toxicity. However, 2000 IU per day is considered safe and effective for children. If you have any concerns, talk to your child's health care provider. Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet. If your child is under medical supervision, please consult a doctor before uses.
