Growing children need to absorb vital nutrients from their food but to do so they need to be eating enough of the right foods. The Vivio® Junior expert Clinical Nutritionist Eva Hill Hamiton is supporting parents in providing a holistic approach to ensure that their children are prepared for the season ahead.

“We know parents can struggle to fulfil their children’s needs of five portions of fruits and vegetables every day – just 1 in 5 parents surveyed are managing this every day," says Eva. 

“Equally, preparing school lunches for children can pose a problem for many parents seeking to meet those needs. Selecting colourful fresh fruit and vegetables balanced with protein and healthy fats will provide children with a spectrum of nutrients that bolsters the immune system.

“To support the growth and well-being of children who are not consuming sufficient fruits and vegetables, I recommend incorporating a multivitamin tonic for extra nutrients in their diet”.

VIVIO® Junior Multivitamin Tonic

VIVIO® Junior Multivitamin Tonic is packed with 12 Vitamins, Zinc and Iodine to support growth, immunity and cognitive function. This delicious-tasting multivitamin tonic is suitable from 1 year+ and has been specifically formulated with the latest research and nutrient guidelines for children.

It is ideal to take daily for nutritional support during the winter months, while traveling, or any time of the year. There is no added sugar, it is gluten and lactose-free with no need to refrigerate.

As the seasons transition and children develop colds or coughs, natural remedies that can alleviate the symptoms without suppressing them are also beneficial. Remember, coughs act as the body's innate defense mechanism to expel and safeguard against harmful substances

VIVIO® Junior Cough Syrup

VIVIO® Junior Cough is a 100% natural and preservative-free cough syrup, specifically formulated for Children 1 year+ for dry, chesty and congested coughs. It provides a sensation of calm, hydration and protection of the upper respiratory tract, modulating the cough without suppressing it. The exclusive formula has a soothing and delicious taste thanks to the natural honey and strawberry. Added marshmallow extract reinforces the soothing and calming properties of the syrup due to its natural mucilage properties.

Dry cough: VIVIO® Junior Cough Syrup forms a protective film on the throat, thanks to the xanthan gum and arabic gum action, which protect the throat from the contact of irritants or infectious agents, relieving its irritation and keeping it hydrated and lubricated.

Chesty and congested cough: VIVIO® Junior Cough Syrup also hydrates and reduces the thickness of the mucus thanks to the cane sugar, which stimulates saliva and increases the water content in the mucus to make it more fluid and easier to clear.

It is free from artificial colours, flavours, sweeteners, gluten and lactose-free. Suitable for vegetarians it does not need to be refrigerated.
