How do I get my child to take supplements?
How do I get my child to take supplements?
First, explain to them that the supplements are like medicine, and are designed to help them feel better.
Powder: We recommend letting the child pick their favorite strong-tasting juice (cranberry, grape, mango, etc.). Then, give them a sip of pure juice (to coat the tongue), then the powder mixed with juice, and then pure juice.
Alternatively, some parents have mixed the powder with melted dark chocolate with a little coconut oil, and then let it cool in a mold in the fridge. Dairy-free chocolate is available. There are also easy recipes to make your own gummy vitamins (ie WellnessMama.com and NourishingJoy.com just to name 2 online resources).
How do I know if my child will benefit from a vitamin/mineral supplement?
How do I know if my child will benefit from a vitamin/mineral supplement?
For vitamin/mineral supplements, a 2-3 month trial is usually enough to determine if there is benefit. In the Adams et al 2012 study, about 1/3 of participants found no benefit, about 1/3 had some benefit, and about 1/3 had substantial benefit. Although medical testing of nutritional status can be done, it is easier, cheaper, and more reliable to just try it. Children with limited diets without enough vegetables, fruits, and meats/protein are likely to benefit the most.
How do I know what dosage is best?
How do I know what dosage is best?
In the Adams et al 2012 study, most participants gradually increased to the full dose of the vitamin/mineral supplement over 3 months. However, a few families found that their child did better at 50-75% of the full dose, so they stayed at that dose. Each child is an individual, so it is okay to individualize their dosage.
