The Children's Blend is a blend of the most nutrient dense, real and fermented foods. It is formulated specifically for the nutritional requirements of the special littlest loves in our lives, to support their growth and development when consumed as part of a healthy diet.
This blend covers the many nutrient gaps that both adults and children miss, even when following wholesome, real food diets. It provides the parents a sense of relief and warms their heart when they know their child is receiving the foods and nutrients within the foods!
Organic beetroot juice, all organic fermented blend (fermented red lentils, broccoli, chlorella, spinach, camu camu, pepitas, beetroot juice, molasses), organic grass fed beef liver, freeze dried wild harvested elderberry, stevia leaf (Steviol glycosides), organic chamomile flowers, organic camu camu, organic Atlantic kelp.
Free from artificial sweeteners, colours, flavours, synthetics or preservatives. All natural, no GMO ingredients.
Made with 100% certified organic supplement & ingredients.
Free from artificial sweeteners, colours, flavours, synthetics or preservatives. All natural, no GMO ingredients.
Mix the recommended dosage on the bottle for the correct age group into a small glass of icy cold water, juice, smoothie or sparkling probiotic beverage. Alternatively you can blend it through bliss balls, slices or anything you or your little one pleases! Keep it raw (do not heat), so the nutrients remain intact and the probiotics remain live.
Whilst we often just use a spoon, water and the blend to roughly mix it in a glass and guzzle, I understand some of you want to make sure it is completely emulsified - and this is totally possible! Because the blend is free from chemical emulsifiers (eg soy lecithin), the blend will need a little help to completely mix in water, and the following quick and easy methods help you do just that.
If you are very nauseous or fussy, you could use a juice instead of water. Whilst to me and many the beetroot juice makes for a sweet taste, organic supplement, pure apple, orange or pineapple juice would be so, so delicious!
- Add your dose to any jar (however we love using a leftover clean Foraged jar) along with just a ¼ - ½ cup of water or juice. Shake, shake, shake! It will completely emulsify and is like having a juice with zero pulp. Guzzle this down and continue with your day.
- Blitz the dose and ¼-½ cup of water in your blender just for a few seconds. It will also be completely emulsified just like a pure juice.
- Combine the dose with a very small amount of water and turn it into a paste-like consistency using a spoon. Once it forms a paste, add a little more water and it again will be fully emulsified. Guzzle!
- Add it into a smoothie or smoothie bowl. There is a recipe on our Instagram feed , that includes foods like strawberry or blueberry, some frozen bananas, coconut cream, coconut milk or coconut yogurt, pure grass fed collagen powder, cucumber and zucchini.
- Blueberry (or any berry!) gummies! This recipe is also on our Instagram feed.
- Gelatine capsules. Whilst this might seem tedious, reports have been that it is super easy and can be worthwhile for those that are very nauseous. You can get gelatine capsules from a health food store or chemist, and just spoon it in. It seems obvious, but just make sure that depending on the size of your capsules, you have the correct dose for you.
We cover many common missing nutritional links in even the healthiest of diets. The body often sighs with relief after receiving these nutrients from food it has been longing for, for too long.
Without exception, we always choose certified organic ingredients of the highest quality, prepared how nature and tradition has taught us, free from any excipients that are often hidden that don't 'need' to be on product labels. We choose nature's most nutrient dense foods, compile them into one, to create more ease and less cost for the average person wanting incredible nourishment, and not just live, but thrive!
Stronger immune systems, relieved skin issues, better mental health and balanced moods, a better functioning digestive system, nutrient blood testing results better than ever and more are just some of the reports we receive daily.
Liver was selected for its iron, B12, folate, zinc, choline and copper content.
Kelp was selected for its iodine content.
Fermented greens were selected for their gentle cleansing abilities and bioavailable forms of nutrients like folate and vitamin C content, along with a diverse range of minerals.
Camu camu was selected for its natural high vitamin C content.
Beetroot juice was selected for its folate, antioxidant content, its blood building properties and natural nitrate content to assist with nutrient delivery and oxygenation of the blood.
Elderberry was selected for its quercetin and vitamin C content, along with its unmatched antiviral support to ward off and prevent the very common colds and flus children are faced with.
Chamomile was selected for its calming benefits for those suffering teething (especially when served in ice-block form!), calming abilities to the nervous system and digestive system.
Basically, we are aiming for an overall happier child here!
Everybody can benefit from enhancing their nutrient intake to support their immune support, nervous system, energy and more to thrive and function at their best. So, after supporting thousands upon thousands of pregnant women and mothers with The Mothers Blend, the most common question we received was ‘Can I and how much can I give to my ‘xx’ year old?’. It became a non-negotiable to create a children’s blend specifically suited to their nutrient needs.
Introducing, The Children’s Blend.
The Children's Blend
Made from some of the world's most nutrient-dense and fermented foods, this food or daily supplement (call it how you wish!) contains specific vitamins and minerals that are important for your child's growth and development in the most perfect balance. Packed with fermented foods that aid digestion and boost immune function, this probiotic blend is designed to support growing bubbas with a little more ease. It can be challenging (and sometimes annoying…) to consistently incorporate foods like kelp for iodine, liver for iron, B vitamins, zinc, choline and folate, fermented foods, green vegetables and vitamin C rich foods like Camu Camu, so this is why it was placed all in the one magical powder.
So, what’s actually in The Children’s Blend and what makes it so great for kids? On top of all The Mothers Blend ingredients, which you can learn about in detail here, you’ll find three key additions that set The Children’s Blend apart and optimise it for children’s needs.
The Key Changes and 3 Key Ingredients That Make This Organic Supplement Perfect For Kids
The iodine in kelp was lowered
Too little iodine can be a problem, and too much iodine can be a problem. Whilst it is fine to give your little one The Mothers Blend and just a much smaller amount. However, it was important to provide the precise right dose for the age of your little one. Iodine can be a challenging nutrient to optimize due to the small array of foods it is in, kelp being the richest source. So we have made this a little easier for you!
Camu Camu
While our original Mothers Blend also contains camu camu, we have upped the dose for our Children’s Blend organic supplement. It is high in vitamin C and other nutrients, such as calcium, potassium, and amino acids, making it a powerful ingredient to support your immune system.
Here are a few potential benefits of camu camu powder for children:
- Supports immune function: Camu camu powder is an excellent source of vitamin C, which is an important nutrient for maintaining a healthy immune system. Vitamin C can help protect against infections and support the body's natural healing process.
- Supports cognitive health: Some research suggests that camu camu powder may help improve memory and cognitive function in children.
Reduce inflammation: Camu camu powder contains antioxidants, which are compounds that can help protect the body against harmful free radicals and - reduce inflammation. This may be beneficial for children with chronic conditions such as asthma or allergies.
Elderberry
Elderberry is a type of berry that is traditionally used to support the immune system and may have other potential health benefits. Here are a few potential benefits of elderberry for children:
- Supports immune function: Elderberry is rich in antioxidants and has been shown to help support the immune system. It may help reduce the severity and duration of cold and flu symptoms.
- Reduce inflammation: Elderberry contains compounds that may help reduce inflammation, which may be beneficial for children with chronic conditions such as asthma or allergies.
- Antiviral properties: Some research suggests that elderberry may have antiviral properties and may be effective at fighting off viral infections.
Chamomile
Chamomile is known for its calming properties and may have other potential health benefits. Whilst there is just a touch of chamomile, even a tea can bring the benefits of chamomile, so a little can go a long way. It isn’t harmful to incorporate more chamomile, though, so if you love the sound of what chamomile is known for, incorporate it in other ways, too!
Here are a few potential benefits of chamomile for children and babies:
- Reduce anxiety and improve sleep: Chamomile has long been used as a natural remedy for anxiety and insomnia. It may help relax the mind and body, and promote a sense of calm.
- Relieve colic symptoms: Chamomile has been known to support digestive health and ease infant colic symptoms such as gastrointestinal pain, cramping, and bloating.
- Sooth sore teeth: Traditionally in western medicine, Chamomile has been used to relieve teething pain. A great idea would be to pop the blend into ice-block moulds with breastmilk, an alternative milk, coconut water or alike and allow your bubba or toddler to enjoy it for a little relief!
- Anti-inflammatory properties: Chamomile contains compounds that may help reduce inflammation, which may be beneficial for children with certain conditions such as allergies or eczema.
- Antibacterial properties: Some research suggests that chamomile may have antibacterial properties and may be effective at fighting off bacterial infections.
