A well-absorbed multivitamin gummy for kids, convenient and tasty, but contains sugar and has lower doses of key ingredients for targeted support.
Quantity: 90Dose: With added Fiber, Quantity: 120Flavour: Cherry Berry
This SmartyPants Kids Formula is formulated to provide comprehensive nutritional support for children's growth and overall well-being. It stands out for incorporating bioavailable forms of key vitamins such as Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin), Folate (L-Methylfolate), Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate), Vitamin K2 (Menaquinone-7), and Vitamin D (Cholecalciferol), which are favored by nutritionists for their enhanced absorption. The gummy format is a significant advantage for encouraging consistent intake among children who may refuse pills. Nevertheless, the product contains 7 grams of total carbohydrates and 35 calories per serving, predominantly from sugars, which is a common concern among health-conscious parents and nutritionists regarding daily sugar intake. While Fish Oil (340mg) and Choline (12mg) are included, their quantities are quite modest for delivering substantial targeted benefits for brain or heart health, positioning the product more as a general nutritional supplement rather than a specific therapeutic aid. Its high review count indicates strong consumer satisfaction, largely due to taste and convenience.
- Utilizes bioavailable forms of important vitamins (e.g., Methylcobalamin B12, L-Methylfolate Folate, Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate B6, Menaquinone-7 K2, Cholecalciferol D3).
- Provides a wide range of essential vitamins and minerals for children's overall health.
- Appealing gummy format enhances compliance among children.
- Contains Fish Oil for Omega-3s and Choline, which are beneficial for development.
- High sugar content (7g total carbohydrates) per serving, contributing to daily sugar consumption for children.
- Lower concentrations of targeted ingredients like Choline (12mg) and Fish Oil (340mg) for specific brain or heart health benefits compared to dedicated supplements.
- Gummy dosage limits the inclusion of higher therapeutic amounts of certain nutrients.
- Families monitoring sugar intake should consider the carbohydrate content when integrating this into a child's diet.
- For children requiring more significant nutritional support for specific health concerns related to Choline or Omega-3s, a supplementary product with higher doses would be more appropriate.

Categories
Iodine 75.0
With 90mcg of Iodine (as Potassium Iodide), this formula supplies an appropriate and effective daily amount for children, crucial for healthy thyroid function and metabolic regulation, positioning it well against the daily recommendations for iodine.
Fish Oil 35.0
The 340mg of Fish Oil included in the gummy provides a modest amount of Omega-3s. However, the specific EPA/DHA content, which are the primary beneficial compounds, is not listed and is usually quite low in gummy formats. For significant omega-3 benefits, higher concentrations from dedicated fish oil supplements are generally required.
Choline 25.0
The product provides a very low dose of Choline (12mg as Choline Bitartrate). While some choline is beneficial, this quantity is far from the amounts typically recommended for substantial neurological or liver support and is considerably lower than dedicated choline supplements.
Goals
General Health 80.0
The product provides a comprehensive blend of essential vitamins and minerals in highly absorbable forms (D3, K2, B-complex including methylated folate and B12), making it an excellent daily supplement to support children's overall health, growth, and immune function.
Skin Health 65.0
Containing vitamins A, C, E, Biotin, and Zinc, the product delivers essential nutrients vital for maintaining healthy skin. These vitamins and minerals support skin regeneration, antioxidant defense, and overall dermatological well-being in children.
Metabolism Boost 60.0
The inclusion of a complete B-vitamin complex in bioavailable forms supports the body's natural metabolic processes, which are vital for energy conversion. While it promotes efficient metabolism, it is not a 'metabolism booster' in a way that would significantly increase caloric expenditure.
