The Solgar Kangavites Bouncing Berry is a dietary supplement in chewable tablets with forest fruit flavor, designed for children aged 3 and above. Each tablet provides 60mg of vitamin C, 12mg of vitamin E, 10mg of niacin, 5mg of pantothenic acid, 2.5mg of iron, 1.5mg of selenium, 1mg of vitamin B6, 150µg of vitamin A, 100µg of folic acid, 50µg of biotin, 22.5µg of iodine, 3µg of vitamin B12 and 2.5µg of vitamin D2, along with vitamins B1 and B2. The package contains 60 chewable tablets.
It is aimed at parents of preschoolers and school-aged children who want a general vitamin and mineral coverage in a form that the child chews, without needing to swallow a capsule or drink syrup.
The reference nutritional values we see on labels are for the average adult. However, the child's body has a lower weight, a different metabolism rate and is simultaneously in a growth phase, with tissues, bones, and the nervous system being built. Therefore, children's formulas, like this one, are designed with lower absolute quantities per nutrient, and the dosage scales with age, one tablet for ages 3 to 5 and two for ages 6 to 18.
A second point concerns the form. The chewable tablet solves the practical problem of ingestion, but requires a deliberate choice of flavor and sweetener. Here the flavor is forest fruit and the manufacturer states that no artificial fragrances are used. Finally, because the formula contains iron, there is a general warning for iron preparations: the package should be kept away from young children, as accidental ingestion of a large amount is dangerous.
According to the product presentation by Solgar, the formula is associated with the following points:
