(Health-NewsWire.Net, February 26, 2015 ) Littleton, CO -- As winter drags on, people are continuing to stock up with children’s complete multivitamins, and what many call the sunshine vitamin, vitamin D. Wellness Nutraceuticals saw the need to produce a one stop shop while supplementing childrens diets by producing a multivitamin that contains a full dose of vitamin D. "No more buying multiple products", says CEO Aimée O'Brien.
Vitamin D is actually a hormone that is produced naturally by the body in response to ultra violet light exposure, and can also be found in certain types of foods, including oily fish, liver, eggs and etc. It is also added to various other foods, including milk; baby formula; fortified cereals; bread and several other beverages.
Sunlight is still regarded as the primary source of vitamin D, as foods typically do not contain enough of the vitamin. Contrary to popular belief, vitamin D deficiency is common even in countries that get plenty of sun all year round.
In many countries (particularly the USA, Canada, Great Britain and other European nations), people simply don't get the opportunity to spend enough time in the sun in order to meet their daily vitamin D requirements. While the weather is largely to blame, experts also point out that modern day lifestyles play a role as well. Recently, Canada's Alberta Health Services has advised all Canadians to start taking a daily vitamin D supplement.
Also noted, because of increasingly busy lifestyles, families are finding it hard to eat the proper foods that contain all the essential nutrients we need everyday. Children ages 2+ are advised by many health practitioners to take a daily multivitamin and a vitamin D supplement as well. Wellness Nutraceuticals' WellKids Multi + Vitamin D offers both a complete multivitamin plus 600IU of vitamin D in every serving.
Has the increase in awareness been responsible for the current swell in demand? Some merchants believe it is. "There has been a huge increase in demand for our premium children's chewable multivitamins that contain the DRI of vitamin D," said a company spokesperson. "We think that when government is advocating the use of multivitamins and vitamin D supplements, people are more likely to listen."
When asked, other vitamin and mineral supplement suppliers have also reported above average sales. "When winter arrives, people know cold and flu season is approaching, and we see an increase in sales. This year has just been extraordinary," said one company representative.
Wellness Nutraceuticals' Aimée O'Brien notes that supplements alone won't make your family immune to sickness. Living an active and healthy lifestyle, along with taking a highly potent vitamin and mineral supplement, will help boost the immune system and overall health.
