Q: Can I take multivitamins with Zinc Gummies?
Yes of course you can. Zinc goes well with most of the other vitamins or minerals. Multi-vitamin formulas usually contain a small amount of zinc (1-5mg) so be sure to read the labels and factor in all sources of supplemental zinc. We highly recommend taking a good multivitamin (for example, allKiDz Multi Gummy Vegetarian) along with Zinc Gummies to give your kids a balanced nutritional supplementation.
Q: Besides Zinc, which vitamins are also recommended for immune health?
Vitamin C:
As a potent antioxidant, vitamin C is known for its immune-boosting and anti-viral effect. As a water-soluble vitamin, our body cannot produce or store it therefore a daily intake of vitamin C is vital for good health.
Vitamin E:
Vitamin E has been shown to support immune functions by promoting immune cells. Nuts, seeds and plant-based oil are exceptionally rich sources of vitamin E.
Vitamin D:
Besides its benefits in bone health, the "sunshine" vitamin D also plays a critical role in modulating immune responses. Vitamin D deficiency is linked to a lower level of immunity and higher susceptibility to infections.
