Feature Summary
Big Friends children’s nutritional supplements are back in a big way, and now better than ever. One of Natural Factors’ most popular lines, Big Friends returns with updated formulas.
It can be difficult to know whether meals and snacks provide the full range of vitamins and minerals that children need. Big Friends Chewable Multivitamin &Minerals supplies nutritional insurance for even the healthiest of eaters and is specifically formulated for the physical demands of active, growing children.
Each Big Friends tablet contains a broad spectrum of vitamins and minerals needed for healthy teeth, bones, skin, nerves, brain, metabolism, and immunity. This new and improved formula now contains zinc, magnesium, and vitamin K2. It is also sweetened with stevia and xylitol and has replaced ascorbic acid with calcium ascorbate so that it is gentler on tooth enamel.
Big Friends is suitable for ages three and up, and now comes in a smaller tablet size. Our whole food concentrates are made using the same fresh raw plants from Factors Farm in Okanagan, processed with our EnviroSimplex method to retain and intensify the total goodness of whole food into rich living food. This supplies antioxidant and phytonutrients, while delicious fruit flavours and friendly dinosaur shapes keep little ones smiling.
