As we lead busy fast paced lives we often come home and reach for the processed foods because they are quick and easy to make. As a certified herbalist, and a student of this science for over 14 years, I have come to realize that eating healthy means eating foods that are rich in natural nutrients that come from planet earth to nourish our bodies. Shaklee offers a terrific line of children’s vitamins, nutritionals and other child care products to ensure that your child gets the quality nutrition in a safe and effective manner.\n\nThe exciting news about our Whole Food Vitamin Mineral formula is that you get 100% of the RDA and it is from whole foods. Research proves current farming methods, food production, and preparation deplete our foods of life-generating vitamins and minerals. That’s what an organic whole food vitamin supplement is all about.\n\nThey are made from nutritious whole plants and fruits, such as blueberries, cranberries, strawberries, blackberries, cherries, apricots, papaya, oranges, grapes, pineapples, plums, bilberry, seaweed, kale, spinach, wheat grass, brussels sprouts, asparagus, broccoli, beets, carrots, parsley, cabbage, cauliflower, organic mushrooms and garlic.\n\nYou will find that regular synthetic vitamins cost less on the shelf but since you are only getting 10% of their value, in the end, you will find that vitamins made with whole foods are a much better choice. Whole food supplements are made from organic, animal and plant tissues.\n\nBecause of this only approximately 10% of synthetic vitamins are actually absorbed into the body. These are not synthetic (made in the lab) vitamins. Whole food supplements aim to be as close to the natural as possible, helping your body to absorb and utilize as much of the nutritional vitamin and mineral content as possible.
