Ot: Anyone increase Vit C or D for your children?

[Guest guest]

I've read recently that increaseing Vit. D is good for immune system

and colds. My Doctor takes 2 grams of C year round because of her

exposure to illness.

I'm wondering if any of you increse supplements for you kiddos during

winter months to help ward off colds. If so what do you give?

Thanks,

Diane

Hi,

I began giving my 3 yr. old son Vitamin C last fall . He's had only 1 mild

cold which cleared up fast. I give him 2 chewable tablets a day. The name

of it is " Rhino Ester-C " by Nutrition Now. It's cherry flavored. Two

tablets give him 100 mg of C, and 12 mg of calcium.
