Listed here are a few good reasons why your baby needs proper nutrition [good, healthy, and natural reasons] and why your should give your baby Shaklee's baby vitamins:
~Vitamins help in the development in your baby's immune system.--When babies are first born, their immune systems are not as strong as they need to be. With the proper vitamins your baby's immune system can combat many viruses. Nutrients such as vitamins A, C, and E, as well as zinc, copper, and selenium, all contribute to a healthy immune system.
~Healthy Bones and Teeth--Along with calcium and magnesium, vitamin D is crucial for strong bones and teeth. Recently the American Academy of Pediatrics increased its recommended daily intake requirement of vitamin D from 200 IU to 400 IU for infants and toddlers. Vitamins are essential in the early growth and development of your baby's brain [before and after birth].
~Brain Health --Nutrients such as iron, zinc, copper, folic acid, selenium, and vitamin A have significant roles in brain development.
~Lactoferrin--A unique, biologically active milk protein. Also found naturally in breast milk, it is believed to provide one of the immuno-protective effects associated with breast-feeding. Lactoferrin has been shown to act as a prebiotic–it fuels the growth of beneficial microflora, which in turn supports digestive health. Studies also indicate lactoferrin activates other components of the immune system.
~Digestive Health--Infants who were fed prebiotics in baby food or infant formula have been found to have higher levels of bifidobacteria in their intestines, which in turn help support a strong immune system.
Also essential for good health is knowing what your baby may be exposed to in his/her environment. Keep your child safe with Shaklee non-toxic cleaning products and baby care products.
