As you may know by reading my blog, I have two boys, one that has always eaten his vegetables, and one that would rather eat a stick than a piece of broccoli, or any vegetable for that matter. Having spoken to Doctor’s and other parents, we just make sure he gets his vitamins, and at least try to get him to eat new foods. So with all of that said, it is quite difficult to get him the right nutrition he needs, and since you can’t force a child to eat something he just doesn’t like or want to, I know, I was him, I figured why not try a nutritional drink.
I was asked to try Vemma NEXT, which is an orange flavored drink that doesn’t contain any preservatives artificial colors, flavors or sweeteners. It also contains an enhanced full spectrum of vitamins, antioxidants and over 65 plant-sourced minerals. Just 2 ounces of this delicious kid-approved beverage gives super-charged immune protection, critical brain development nutrients and specific ingredients designed for children’s growing bodies.
I was surprised to see how Vemma NEXT compared to the leading vitamin brands;
A recent study conducted by The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition reported that fast food consumption was not the major cause for childhood obesity, it actually starts at home. This is so true, when you have a child that is super picky you are happy that they eat anything, but more likely than not, what he does eat isn’t the healthiest.
So I brought out the Vemma NEXT to see if my son would even drink it, and guess what? He did, and he said he loved it! He said he wanted to drink out of the little bottle instead of the glass, so I drank what was in the glass, and I loved it as well. You can smell the vitamins, but it’s not an offensive smell, and the taste is sweet, and super creamy. It was good, and again, he liked it so that’s all that matters to me. 🙂
Vemma NEXT includes:
- Vitamin C – found in citrus fruits, broccoli, bell peppers, kale, cauliflower and green leafy vegetables.
- Vitamin D – found in salmon, tuna fish, milk, eggs, liver, beef, and even direct sunlight.
- Beta carotene – found in sweet potatoes, carrots, spinach, collard greens and squash.
- DHA – an all-natural, vegetarian source of omega-3 fatty acid known for brain and eye support.* Choline also aids in brain development.*
- Quercetin – a group of flavonoids that give many fruits and vegetables their coloring. An antioxidant perfect for growing bodies.*
