Is Terranova Green Child Vitamin D3 suitable for vegetarians?
Yes, Terranova Green Child Vitamin D3 400IU 50 Pack is suitable for vegetarians and vegans. The vitamin D3 is sourced from lichen rather than lanolin, and the capsule is plant based, aligning with plant-only diets.
What makes the Magnifood complex special?
The Magnifood complex features fresh freeze-dried organic botanicals such as coriander and spirulina, which naturally contain phytonutrients. These ingredients are included to complement the vitamin D3 formula.
Why choose this for children in the UK?
UK health authorities advise that children should receive 10 micrograms of vitamin D daily, particularly during autumn and winter when sunlight exposure is limited. This supplement provides 400IU, equivalent to 10 micrograms, supporting normal bone development and immune function.
Does it contain common allergens?
