Safe For Children?

We always recommend checking with your healthcare physician when it comes to supplementation for children. 


Presently, we have limited products that we have serving suggestions for children:  


  • Soothewise Elderberry Syrup
  • Kid's B12 (same formula as the adult version, the refill size is ideal for families)
  • Kid's Zinc (same formula as the adult version, the refill size is ideal for families)
  • Brain Body Memory
  • Restful You Liquid Melatonin

All of our other products and dosages are formulated for adults.  Please check with your child's pediatrician for dosage recommendations.
