Designed with a focus on bone and immune health, the two most important nutritional areas for growing children. Provides easily-absorbed forms of calcium, vitamin D, vitamin A, B vitamins, vitamin C, and other key nutrients in a kid-friendly liquid format. Iron-free (iron competes with calcium absorption and should be addressed separately if deficient).

Quick Facts

Who Salus Kindervital Is For

• Parents of children ages 2–12 looking for a comprehensive daily multivitamin
• Families dealing with picky eaters whose dietary variety is limited
• Parents wanting to address growing children's increased nutritional needs during rapid development
• Families preferring liquid format over gummies (which contain added sugar) or capsules (children can't swallow)
• Parents focused specifically on bone development and immune resilience for growing children
• Families wanting a multivitamin without artificial colours, preservatives, or alcohol
• Parents of children with mild food allergies who need a clean, allergen-aware product

When to consult a healthcare practitioner before use: Children with diagnosed nutritional deficiencies (especially iron deficiency — this product is iron-free) need targeted supplementation under pediatric guidance. Children with chronic medical conditions, special dietary requirements, or medications should have supplementation reviewed by their pediatrician or naturopath. Children under 2 need pediatric-specific guidance — this product is formulated for ages 2 and up. If your child has diagnosed allergies to any ingredient, consult their healthcare practitioner. Adolescents 13+ should typically transition to teen or adult multivitamins.

Vitamart's Take

For parents trying to make sense of children's vitamin options, Kindervital has been one of the steady, reliable choices on the Canadian market for decades. Salus is a German family company with over 50 years specifically focused on children's nutrition. The liquid format matters: young kids can't swallow pills, gummies add daily sugar, and chewables often pack artificial colours. Kindervital uses fruit juice and herbal extracts — naturally sweet without added sugar. Iron-free, so calcium and other minerals absorb properly. A sensible daily choice.

How Kindervital Compares

Kindervital Liquid vs Gummy Multivitamins

Gummies are the most popular kids' multivitamin format because children take them readily. The downside is added sugar (often 2–3g per gummy, building daily sugar habits) and reduced ability to deliver fat-soluble vitamins and minerals like calcium. Kindervital liquid uses naturally-sweet fruit juice without added sugar, can deliver meaningful calcium and vitamin D, and avoids the sugar-habit problem. For daily long-term use, liquid is the more responsible choice; gummies are fine for occasional use.

Kindervital vs Chewable Children's Vitamins

Chewable tablets often contain artificial colours (Red 40, Yellow 6, etc.) and artificial sweeteners that some families prefer to avoid. Kindervital uses only natural fruit juice and herbal flavouring. Chewables can be more cost-effective per serving; Kindervital is more aligned with clean-ingredient preferences. Different priorities for different families.

Kindervital vs Standalone Children's Calcium + D

If your child's main need is bone-building support, standalone calcium + D children's products can deliver higher specific doses than a comprehensive multivitamin. Kindervital is comprehensive (vitamins A, B-complex, C, D plus calcium) — nutritional insurance across many nutrients at moderate doses each. For targeted bone support beyond multivitamin levels, standalone calcium + D products may be needed alongside.

Kindervital vs Adult Multivitamins (Reduced Dose)

Some parents give children adult vitamins at reduced dose. This is generally not recommended — adult formulas may contain ingredients not appropriate for children (high iron, certain herbs), and the nutrient ratios are designed for adult bodies. Children's-specific formulas like Kindervital are designed for developing bodies with age-appropriate dose ranges. Use a child-specific product for children.

What's in Kindervital and Why

• Calcium for growing bones. The most important nutrient for childhood, given that approximately 90% of adult bone mass is laid down by age 17. Health Canada surveys consistently show many Canadian children fall short of recommended calcium intake. Kindervital uses highly soluble calcium forms for good absorption.
• Vitamin D for calcium absorption. Vitamin D is essential for the body to actually use the calcium it consumes. Without adequate D, even good calcium intake doesn't build bones effectively. Canadian children are particularly at risk for low vitamin D due to limited winter sun exposure.
• Vitamin A for vision and immune. Required for normal vision development, immune function, and healthy skin. Children's needs are met by both retinol (animal sources, found in dairy) and beta-carotene (plant sources). Kindervital includes naturally-sourced beta-carotene.
• B-complex for energy and development. The B vitamins support energy production from food, neurological development, and red blood cell formation. Modern processed-food diets often fall short of B vitamins, particularly when children eat refined grains that have been stripped of B-vitamin content.
• Vitamin C for immune support. Children get colds frequently — a normal part of immune system development. Adequate vitamin C supports immune cell function and tissue health. Vitamin C is also a potent antioxidant supporting overall health.
• Vitamin E. Fat-soluble antioxidant that works with vitamin C to protect cellular health. Important during periods of rapid growth and high cellular turnover.
• Iron-free design. A key consideration. Iron competes directly with calcium for absorption, so combining them reduces effectiveness of both. Iron supplementation should only be given when bloodwork confirms deficiency — it's not appropriate for general use because excess iron is harmful and accidental iron overdose is one of the leading causes of poisoning fatalities in young children.
• Liquid format absorption advantage. Children's digestive systems are still developing. Liquid nutrients absorb more easily than capsules or tablets, with less digestive work required. This is particularly important for young children whose stomach acid production is still maturing.
• Clean ingredient list. No artificial colours (linked to behavioural concerns in some sensitive children), no artificial preservatives, no alcohol, no synthetic flavours. Sweetened naturally with fruit juices.
• The 50+ years of research. Salus has been formulating children's nutrition since the 1960s. This experience matters — they've refined their understanding of what works, what kids will actually take, and how to formulate clean products with kid-friendly taste.

How To Use

Follow label dosing for your child's age. Typical dosing increases with age (younger children take smaller daily amounts; older children take more). Can be taken straight from the spoon or mixed with apple juice, orange juice, or water if preferred. Refrigerate after opening for best freshness. Shake bottle well before each use. Use a clean spoon to avoid contaminating the bottle. Don't exceed recommended daily dose.

Cautions: Consult your child's healthcare practitioner before starting any supplement, particularly if your child has a medical condition, takes medication, has known nutritional deficiencies, or has allergies. Iron-free formula — if your child has been diagnosed with iron-deficiency anemia, they need separate iron supplementation under pediatric guidance. Keep out of reach of younger children when not being administered — don't let children self-dose. For children under 2, consult their pediatrician for appropriate supplementation guidance. Discontinue if any adverse reaction occurs.
