Vitamin D:

Often hailed as the “sunshine vitamin,” Vitamin D is a beacon of bone health and immune support for our youngsters.

Beyond its renowned role in aiding calcium absorption for sturdy bones and teeth, Vitamin D also underpins immune system health, helping children ward off unwelcome illnesses. Given its significance, ensuring children get an adequate amount is paramount.

While sunlight is a natural source, it’s also found in fortified milk, fish, and eggs. Given the increasing indoor lifestyles and concerns about sun exposure, supplements might be considered. As always, parents should confer with pediatricians to decide the best Vitamin D source tailored for their child.
