Dinochews Children's Chewable
Dinochews Children's Chewable is a Multi-Vitamin and Mineral (MVM) supplement formulated for children, containing 21 ingredients. This product provides several vitamins at clinically studied doses, including Vitamin A (360.000mcg RE), Vitamin C (80.000mg), Thiamine (3.000mg), Riboflavin (4.000mg), and Vitamin B6 (3.000mg). However, certain key nutrients like Vitamin D2, Vitamin E, and Niacin are present at underdosed levels, which may impact comprehensive nutritional support. With an N+ Score of 58 and an 'F' grade, its overall quality is rated as low, primarily due to concerns with ingredient adequacy and formula completeness, despite 100% label transparency. This supplement may be suitable for parents seeking specific vitamin support for their children, but a more complete MVM might be considered for broader nutritional needs.
