Calcium is a vitally important mineral for growing children. It is required as their bodily systems develop. Since kids are often picky eaters and do not include high-calcium foods like vegetables and milk in their diets, it is often necessary to supplement with a high-quality calcium citrate. The citrate form of calcium is widely known to be the best and most absorbable form. Vitabase Kid's Calcium offers this vital and important nutrient in a great-tasting, orange-flavored, chewable tablet. A chewable dietary supplement for children. Children age 4 and up: Take 2 chewables daily. Children 1-3 years of age: Take 1 or 2 chewables daily.
