Top 8 ChildLife Essentials Vitamins For Your Kids’ Optimal Health Support in 2022
Over the past couple of years, more people have focused on their immune systems. As a result, parents have started looking at ways to boost their children's immune systems holistically. Giving your child natural vitamins or supplements can provide that extra help for them to face the environment we are currently living in.
Helping children have a healthy start in life has been Childlife Essentials’ priority since the beginning. Our recent focus has also been supporting and boosting kids' immunities with our 100% natural products containing zero gluten, GMO or alcohol.
While you must ensure that your child receives good nutrients (to support their immune system) through their diet, some kids are picky eaters or have special requirements. This is where our vitamins and supplements can provide that peace of mind to parents and ensure their kids can face the unpredictable world we live in right now.
Below are our suggestions for optimal health support products this year.
You can buy them from Chemist Warehouse or check out our other Stockists here.
Vitamin D3
This essential fat-soluble vitamin is naturally present in only a few foods and obtained from sun exposure. However, New Zealand's sun is so harsh we can't fully gain the benefits that way, as we cover up with the much-needed sunblock.
In recent years, there has also been a growing concern about Vitamin D deficiency affecting young people, and we are beginning to understand how vital Vitamin D is to our overall health.
There are various reasons why Vitamin D is so important:
Immune Health. Proper levels of Vitamin D3 support the body's natural defences and support the maintenance of a healthy functioning immune system.
Bone Health. Vitamin D supports bones' health, formation, growth and development in growing children.
Respiratory Health. Vitamin D supports immune defences and immune function during ills and chills.
Heart Health. Recent studies on the sunshine vitamin support Vitamin D's role in a healthy heart, both in children as they develop and in adults.

★★★★★ “Wow. Glad that I found this product. My 3-year-old’s Vitamin D level is low, and I was asked to supplement. This is the only one she takes without a fuss, and it tastes great. I do not have to mix it with anything. I just put the drops on a spoon and give.” ~ Gokul
Liquid Vitamin C
Vitamin C has been thoroughly researched and shown to help support the immune system through daily use. It is the superstar vitamin for immune support, antioxidant function, and detoxification.
Giving your child Vitamin C daily is like buying an insurance policy for their immune system. Vitamin C can support immune defences during times of ills and chills.

★★★★★ “I have been giving this to my 2 years and 8 months old boy for about 5 months now since he was sick all the time after I put him in the daycare. I used to visit our GP every month. In the last 5 months, he has been sick only once. I give it every night in his bottle of milk- so far he hasn’t complained.” ~ D Rodz
Zinc Plus
Zinc is an essential mineral responsible for building tissues and facilitating optimal growth and development, especially during childhood. It also supports the proper functioning of the immune system.
This mineral is essential for the healthy development of the brain and reproductive organs and the structure of cell membranes and proteins.
ChildLife Essentials Zinc Plus includes Copper for a healthy balance of essential minerals and contains Zinc in the form of Zinc Gluconate for optimal absorption.

★★★★★ “Childlife Essentials zinc is a great supplement! The flavour was palatable enough that the 2-year-old and the 9-month-old didn't fight at all. We didn't have to hide it and pray they finished a drink to get the dose. They took it directly from the syringe and went their merry way. Zinc is great to have on hand during cold and flu season, especially with Covid lingering around. Can't get a better virus fighter than zinc. I highly recommend this product if you want a zinc supplement for infants and children. Will definitely be keeping a supply on hand at all times.” ~ Verified US Amazon Customer

★★★★★ “I have to say, these supplements were an answer to prayers. I have tried countless other vitamin gummies and liquids that my 4-year-old would either not eat or worsen behaviours. We needed something easy to eat, and this did the job. I’ve noticed a major difference in my daughter’s attention span, focus, and calmer behaviour. She sleeps well, and her bowel motions are more consistent. I paired this with the omega-3 soft melt and the calcium liquid supplement. If you are struggling to find a solid vitamin, try this!” ~ Verified US Amazon Customer

★★★★★ “My son doesn't like other gummies, but he loves the texture of the soft melts. I like how this is not as sweet as the syrup and dissolve easily in the mouth. I use it for my 2-year-old and 5-year-old whenever they show the first signs of sickness (sneezing or coughing). It usually goes away in a day or two without getting serious.” ~ Verified iHerb Customer

★★★★★ “This is an excellent product. My 1-year-old is in daycare and constantly getting sick. I was desperate to find something that would boost his immunity. This product has really helped in doing that. Although he is still getting sick, this product shortens the length of time. He normally would be sick for 2-3 days with extremely high fevers over 40C. This shortens it to 1 day with low-grade fevers. I now make sure I have a bottle on hand.” ~ Verified US Amazon Customer
