The winter vitamin the NHS recommends for children, in a strawberry gummy. Vitamin D is needed for the normal growth and development of bone in children; vitamins D and C contribute to the normal function of the immune system. Two gummies with breakfast.

Children aged three and over, and the parents who have to get a vitamin into them every morning. Families following the NHS winter advice. Kids who will not take a tablet. Vegan and vegetarian families.

Three and up. Supervise young children while they chew, and keep the jar out of reach.

It is the dose on the label, and 25 µg is within the safe upper level the European Food Safety Authority sets for children aged one to ten (50 µg a day). If your child already takes another vitamin D supplement, check with your pharmacist so you are not doubling up.

Gram for gram, D3 raises blood levels a little more efficiently. D2 is what a mushroom makes under ultraviolet light, the way skin makes D3 — and it is vegan, which almost no children’s D3 is, because D3 is usually rendered from sheep’s wool. At 1,000 IU the difference is academic.

No added sugar. The sweetness is apple juice concentrate and apple purée, and the gummy is set with pectin rather than gelatin.

Yes: shiitake (which carries the vitamin D), Lion’s Mane, Reishi and Chaga fruiting-body extracts at 100 mg each. They are the story, not the argument — the vitamins carry the claims.

Two gummies a day, chewed, no water needed. Breakfast is the usual slot. One portion a day is the limit.
