VITAMINS and minerals are essential for a child ’ s physical and mental growth and development . These vitamins and minerals can be obtained by eating a wide variety of healthy dietary foods .

However , in this day and age , many of the foods we eat are unhealthy , and we often feed this food to our children . Furthermore , there are cases where some children are picky eaters , which may deprive them of some of the essential nutrients found in a particular diet . As a result , they may require supplements to help them grow and maintain their health . Vitamin and mineral supplements can help in this situation . However , because they are not usually known for their taste , it is difficult to persuade children to consume them .
However , there is now a new multivitamin gummy in town . It ’ s called PNKids and is the No 1 gummy in Singapore . Originating from the US , it was the first multivitamin gummy in the market .
The PNKids range is now available in WATSONS , selected Major pharmacies and stores in Malaysia . With PNKids A to Z , the highest vitamins in the market with 13 vitamin and minerals in one great tasting gummy , it is made with a soft texture , delicious flavour with no artificial colours and flavours and it is tailored to Asian kid ’ s tastebud .
