Fast facts about
children’s chewable Vita Guard
Free radicals can harm cells, be they young or old. This damage
may accumulate and manifest as threats to the body’s well-being later in life.
The earlier a person begins consuming a diet rich in antioxidants from whole foods
and whole-food supplements, the greater the protection from free-radical damage.
Benefits may show up in childhood in the form of a stronger defence system, or they
may manifest themselves during adulthood as slowed onset of the effects of aging.
Vita Guard delivers a broad spectrum of whole-food antioxidants to help protect
cells and tissues. It’s an investment worth making to maximize your child’s
chances for optimal well-being, both now and in the future.
Why antioxidant supplements for children?
- To help provide antioxidant nutrients that protect cells.
- To help protect children’s delicate tissues and organs at a time when the rapid metabolic rate necessary to
support tremendous growth and development is also
generating free radicals.
- To help support immature defence systems, which in
childhood are called upon to respond to some of their
greatest challenges.
- To help protect cells from oxidative damage spurred by
children’s high levels of physical activity.
- To help counter free radicals generated by sunlight,
smog, ozone, pesticides, food additives, cigarette smoke,
drugs and other substances to which children are
routinely exposed.
- To fill nutritional gaps that are the rule rather than the
exception in the diets of children, the majority of whom
do not eat the 5-9 daily servings of fruits and vegetables
that health authorities recommend for optimal
well-being.
