Many vitamins and minerals are important for a healthy immune system. Kids need certain vitamins and minerals for their immune system to function optimally. Deficiencies in these critical nutrients may weaken their immune system. Zinc, vitamin C, and other nutrients play an integral role in boosting your child immune system. Both zinc and vitamin C are also powerful antioxidants that protect their body from free radical damage. Zinc is critical for the development and function of immune cells in the body. Zinc deficiency can impair the ability of immune cells to function. Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin well known for its role in supporting a healthy immune system. Research shows vitamin C is essential for the growth and repair of cells all over the body, including immune cells. Vitamin C helps heal wounds and repair and maintain healthy gums, skin and cartilage. While these are commonly found in a balanced diet, getting children to eat healthily is a familiar struggle for many parents. For this reason, Nevancia has formulated a special kind of daily immune support supplement for kids, rich in elderberry, vitamin C, and Zinc, to support and maintain their immune system and other bodily functions.
