What is the best vitamin for a child? This is a common question of most parents. Drugstore personnel tend to reply, ‘The complete combination, of course!’
A multivitamin combination is usually composed of the B complex group, vitamin A, vitamin D3 or ergocalciferol, vitamin E or tocopherol and vitamin C. These active components are normally in smaller amounts and act only as additional supplements for the body. While adults may have enough supply of these from foods, kids – particularly the younger ones require more nutrients for growth.
Vitamins and other supplements are commonly regarded as OTC products. If you are planning to buy a multivitamins product for your child, the following active components can also be great essentials.
