Q1. How does Kids-Pro supports the growth and development of children?
Ans. Kids-Pro is an ideal nutritional supplement that provides optimum
nutrition for the overall growth and development of children. Kids-Pro contains
a balanced combination of macro and micronutrients, which aids the growth aspects
of children, such as brain development, skeletal development, immunity, physical
growth (muscles and body mass), as well as digestive health.
Q2. I prefer TV-advertised products or milk additive powders for my
child. How is Kids-Pro different from these products?
Ans. TV advertised products, milk food drinks, or milk additives available
in market, are composed mainly of sugars and flavours, which just increases the
taste of the milk but do not provide essential nutrients in the right quantities
required for growth and development. Kids-Pro is a scientifically formulated product
defined as per the RDA for Indian kids, with adequate quantities of protein, DHA,
taurine, pre and probiotics, and 28 essential vitamins and minerals. These nutrients
are required for various aspects of growth, such as physical growth, skeletal development,
brain development, immunity, and digestive health. Moreover, Kids-Pro is a trusted
brand of doctors and is prescribed by many paediatricians across India.
Q3. My five-year-old daughter is very selective about food, which makes
me worry about her health. How can Kids-Pro help?
Ans. Many children are choosy or selective about food. The intake of
only one type of food (or only certain dishes) doesn't provide all the essential
vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients, which are necessary during the growth period
of children.
Kids-Pro contains adequate quantities of protein, DHA, taurine, pre and probiotics,
and 28 essential vitamins and minerals, which not only helps make up for the missing
nutrients in the diet but also contributes to physical growth, brain development,
skeletal development, immunity, and digestive health.
Kids-Pro can be consumed with both hot as well as cold milk, which ensures that
your daughter is receiving optimum nutrition. As a parent, you can always try new
ways to feed your child, such as making Kids-Pro milk shakes, smoothies, ice creams,
etc. Moreover, Kids-Pro is easy to make and tasty to drink, and its flavours are
liked and enjoyed by many children.
Q4. In the current competitive scenario, children are expected to be
bright, sharp and intelligent. How can Kids-Pro help?
Ans. Kids-Pro contains smart nutrients for the brain, such as DHA (Docosahexaenoic
acid), choline, taurine, inositol and L-carnitine, which all helps in the growth
and development of the brain. These ingredients have proven benefits in supporting
brain functioning, cerebral activity, and decreasing attention problem. It thus
helps in the cognitive development of children. The long term consumption of Kids-Pro
provides required nutrients, which help your child become smarter, sharper, and
intelligent.
Q5. Our child is allergic to fish. We have heard that DHA is sourced
from fish. What is the source of DHA in Kids-Pro?
Ans. Yes, one of the sources of Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is fish
oil, and it is found in many supplements available in market. Keeping the traditional
Indian vegetarian diet in mind, the DHA in Kids-Pro is sourced from red algal oil,
which is a 100% vegetarian source. You can give your child Kids-Pro without worrying
about the possibility of allergy. However, we recommend consulting your pediatrician
first.
Q6. My son is very active in sports and his coach says he should have
good amounts of calcium for bone health. He is currently consuming Kids-Pro. Can
I give him an additional calcium supplement?
Ans. 99% of the body's calcium is found in the skeleton. Therefore,
calcium is very essential for the skeletal and bone development of kids. Kids-Pro
provides 480mg calcium per day, which meets 80% of the Recommended Dietary Allowance.
Also, Kids-Pro provides Vitamin D, magnesium, and phosphorus,
for optimum absorption and utilization of calcium. Moreover, if your son is consuming
Kids-Pro with milk, he will get the additional calcium from this source. Hence,
there is no need for an additional supplement of calcium until and unless suggested
by a paediatrician.
Q7. Can a child younger than two years of age consume Kids-Pro?
Ans. Consult a paediatrician about use of this product if your child
is younger than two years. Kids-Pro is not intended for infants younger than a year.
According to the American Academy of Paediatrics, infants under a year old should
be breastfed or fed an iron-fortified infant formula. Kids-Pro provides optimum
nutrition for growth and development and can be taken from the age of 2 to12 years.
Q8. Can Kids-Pro be used as a sole source of nutrition?
Ans. Kids-Pro is designed to provide a source of complete and balanced
nutrition for children aged between 2 to 12 years. In a hospital setting, or under
the care of a paediatrician, Kids-Pro may be used as a sole source of nutrition
or as a supplement. Kids-Pro is designed for both short-term and long-term nutrition
support. As with any nutritional product used as a sole source of nutrition, a child
using Kids-Pro in this way should have close medical supervision.
Q9. My child regularly skips her breakfast while hurrying for school.
How can Kids-Pro help?
Ans. Surveys have shown that almost 50% of school going children miss
their breakfast regularly. Skipping breakfast adversely affects physical growth,
zest, learning capabilities, memory, and academic performance. Nutritional supplements
like Kids-Pro provide essential nutrients for overall growth and have shown to improve
memory as well as cognitive functions, and the beneficial effects persist during
their school years.
Q10. Our child falls sick and often misses school. How can Kids-Pro
benefit him?
Ans. The Centre for Disease Control and Prevention says that 40% of
school going children miss school because of illness or injury. This may be due
to poor hygiene, low immunity and nutritional status. Kids-Pro is an ideal nutritional
supplement for growing kids. A combination of macro and micronutrients ensures the
intake of all essential nutrients for the overall growth of children. Hence, the
ingredients in Kids-Pro improve immunity and nutritional status, and help avoid
absenteeism.
