A tasty and convenient kids' multivitamin gummy with bioavailable nutrients, but contains sugar and provides moderate doses of targeted ingredients.
Quantity: 90, Flavour: Original/Mixed FruitDose: With added Fiber, Quantity: 120Flavour: Original/Mixed Fruit
This SmartyPants Kids Formula in Cherry Berry flavor aims to provide comprehensive daily nutritional support for children. Its key strength lies in the use of high-quality, bioavailable forms of many vitamins, including Methylcobalamin (B12), L-Methylfolate (Folate), Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate (B6), Menaquinone-7 (K2), and Cholecalciferol (D3), which are highly regarded by nutritionists for their efficacy. The gummy form, combined with the appealing flavor, significantly enhances children's willingness to take their vitamins consistently. However, a primary concern is the sugar content, with 7 grams of total carbohydrates and 35 calories per serving, which contributes to daily sugar intake for children. Although Fish Oil (340mg) and Choline (12mg as Choline Citrate) are included, their amounts are modest and may not be sufficient for providing substantial, targeted benefits for brain or heart health beyond general nutritional supplementation. Despite these limitations, the product's high popularity and positive reviews underscore its success in meeting the demand for palatable and easy-to-administer children's multivitamins.
- Features bioavailable forms of key vitamins (e.g., Methylcobalamin B12, L-Methylfolate Folate, Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate B6, Menaquinone-7 K2, Cholecalciferol D3).
- Offers a comprehensive array of essential vitamins and minerals for children's general health.
- Pleasant Cherry Berry flavor and gummy format make it highly palatable and easy for children to take.
- Includes Fish Oil for Omega-3s and Choline for additional developmental support.
- High sugar content (7g total carbohydrates) per serving is a significant drawback for daily children's nutrition.
- Low concentrations of targeted ingredients like Choline (12mg) and Fish Oil (340mg) for specific brain or heart health benefits.
- Gummy format inherently limits the total amount of active ingredients that can be included per serving.
- Parents concerned about sugar intake should consider this product's carbohydrate content in their child's daily diet.
- For children requiring more substantial support for specific issues related to Choline or Omega-3s, a higher-dose, dedicated supplement may be more appropriate.

Categories
Iodine 75.0
At 90mcg of Iodine (as Potassium Iodide), the product delivers an appropriate and effective daily amount for children, crucial for healthy thyroid function and metabolic regulation, positioning it well against daily recommendations.
Fish Oil 35.0
While 340mg of Fish Oil is present, the specific EPA/DHA content, which are the primary beneficial compounds, is not listed and is typically low in gummy formats. For significant cognitive or cardiovascular benefits, a more concentrated or higher dose of Omega-3s from a dedicated fish oil supplement would be more effective.
Choline 25.0
The product provides a minimal dose of Choline (12mg as Choline Citrate), which is significantly lower than recommended daily intakes for children and the amounts found in dedicated choline supplements. Its contribution to specific choline-related benefits is therefore limited.
Goals
General Health 80.0
This formula provides a robust array of essential vitamins (A, C, D3, E, K1, K2, complete B-complex) and minerals (Zinc, Iodine) in well-absorbed forms, making it an excellent daily supplement for filling nutritional gaps and supporting the overall growth and development of children.
Skin Health 65.0
The formula contains essential vitamins like A, C, E, and biotin, along with zinc, all of which are vital for maintaining healthy skin. These nutrients support skin integrity, antioxidant defense, and cell regeneration, providing good general support for children's skin health.
Metabolism Boost 60.0
The comprehensive B-vitamin complex in bioavailable forms supports numerous metabolic pathways crucial for energy production and nutrient utilization. This contributes well to general metabolic function in children, though it doesn't act as a 'metabolism booster' in a weight loss or performance-enhancing sense.
