Any experiences? How old was your child when you had them?

What can I do next?

My sisters kids never get sick and I asked my sister about it. She told me ske's been giving two of those gummy lil critters immune boost everyday. So I started my daughter when she was 4. She takes the multi vitamin prescribed by her doctor plus two of the gummy immune C with zinc &echinacea every morning. She has been staying healthy ever since. Sometimes if I run out and dont make it to the store right away for more, if she misses more than 1 day she gets sick! I think they work.

My son likes them and so far this winter has been pretty good on being healthy. I think any kid over 2 is probably okay to take them. My just turned 2 year old is picky and only eats the very soft gummy vitamins (she takes 1, her brother takes 2 which is the regular dose--she weighs around 25 lbs and he weight over 50 lbs). I started my son on Flintstones chewable toddler vitamins (meant for 2-3 year olds) when he was 2 and he got into the gummy ones at 3.

I give it to my kids every single day. They are 3 and 5. We hardly ever get sick

I give them to both of my kids. Started as soon as the could handle a gummy (can't remember--maybe about 1 year old, my kids were able to do it pretty early I thought). My ped said there's nothing harmful in them--they can only help.

I've given all my kids that stuff but not that exact brand. It helped 3 of my kids. One of mine is allergic to Echinacea so that didn't go too good and my 8 month old hasn't been sick yet so he's just on Breast milk.... =) My daughter who's allergic would break out in a small, mild rash but her symptoms would get worse quickly. At first, it didn't seem to help where as my other kids got better quickly. Good luck!

If you want to give your children a supplement that is all natural (vs. synthetic vitamins) and incorporates 17 fruits and vegetables per day you can go to my website (lswiftjuiceplus.com). Juice Plus+ boosts your immune system due to all the phytonutrients. There are 18 gold standard studies proving the effectiveness of JP+. Dr. Sears of "The Doctors" and his father Dr. William Sears are big advocates. We have a program "The Children's Health Study" whereby the children go for free for 3 years with a sponsoring adult. Feel free to email me (____@____.com) should you be interested in discussing all the benefits of Juice Plus+.

We give them to our kids when we remember. Not sure they're any different from any other children's vitamins, but what the heck!
