Is it OK for teenage kids? Trying to have a better immune system for common colds etc

I couldn't take this. I tried it for a week and it blocked certain medications that I needed. I went off of it, and, within three days, I was fine. It has many vitamins and minerals in it and you don't know which might interact with medication. If you aren't on any meds, it may work. DIM+ worked best for me for arthritis and lowering estrogen instead of Tamoxifen. Amazing.

Yes, in general these vitamins and minerals are safe for any age group. And most importantly- they really work
1864057
Yes. My healthcare professional says it is perfectly safe. Even safe for babies, though dosage is different.

I think it is better for kids. My 14 year old uses this one (has since he was 12). He gets serious neck pain (cramps) from large fluffy pillows that elevate his head too much. He is slim. The pillow has helped him 100% with his neck pain. My husband who is also slim uses a different pillow that has a wider neck support.It is not at all hot.

I would certainly do so. It's a great product that helped my son quite well. He's no longer using the doctor's prescribed ointment, which contained steroids, and his skin feels soft and is no longer itchy.Good luck.

Sue, unless your doctor told you to give your child the VSL, I would probably pursue some natural food instead of this. Here again, I would want to know what your doctor said would be appropriate for a child this age. I am sorry this is not a definitive answer, but it would be better to err on the side of caution.

I would have to say the typical teenager would not need the suppliments available from this product. The "Willow" is an organic asprin product. This is only my opinion and it seems to be a generic type direction of use. Not to answer a question with a question, by why do you need to be 21 before purchasing a glass of wine? I sugest if you have major concerns, contact Solgar.

Yes. I use it for my kids (7, 5 and 2). My kids like it. It is quite gentle and good for delicate skin.

It is very mild and free of many ingredients found in other products. None of our three kids ever had a problem but you will have to see for yourself. It is worth a try. Take care.

I've used it both ways; topically to treat acne and internally as an immune booster and for cold/flu symptoms as well as for yeast infections and stomach bugs. I've been thrilled with it overall, but it can be very irritating to certain areas... It made my skin peel when I used it after a Brazilian wax, and once I put too much in my netipot and my sinuses burned so bad my eyes watered and I couldn't sleep that night... but I wasn't sick the next day! This really is a panacea : )

I think it would be fine because it is topical and mostly natural, but I'm not a doctor. You need to consult docter to be 100% sure.

I believe it would. I can say for certain that no one in my family has had a cold or flu in the many years we've been taking this. Four( sorry, said three at first,guess I don't want to think I'm this old) generations, all exposed to untold sick folks (school,work etc) and nothing ever "takes".

It is basically a milk by-product and can't be harful if the person of any age doesn't have any milk allergies. I would give it a try. You will find it either benficial or no positive effect at all. I would have given it to my young kids if I had known about it back when I had young ones. Jay D. Anderson

I'm thinking of getting the irrigation system. My doctor recommended irrigating the sinuses with salt water, I just make it at home. I used to use a neti pot, but I don't like it so I just use my clean hand cupped and it works better for me. Yes, it does help much. It also prevents colds and the flu. Another thing that helps my allergies to pollens is filtering the air I have a hepa filter that relieves my allergies after filtering the air for 45 minutes, and rinsing out my sinuses, together that helps a lot. I'm thinking of getting the irrigation system, if it'll save me time. I wish some one who had one would post. I'm thinking of getting the irrigation system.

I mean, its acrylic liquid with toxins in it so it might not be too good to be around small kids. However, this is a starter kit to get you used to actually get you get kind of that background before actually going to the advancer tools. I'm a teenager so, I knew that it had toxins in it, I just wore a mask to kind of shield me a little from it. So, It can be for kids, and adults.

If you want a real good quality liquid immune formula that tastes great take a look at this one Zahler ImmuniKid, Liquid Immune Support Supplement for Children, Immune Booster for Kids in a Great Tasting Strawberry Spearmint Flavor, Certified Kosher, 16oz my kids take it without any issues and without mixing it into anything! They absolutely love it and even ask me for more.

its worth a try, its good stuff. i take it for myself. have no kids. the sinatrol by same company works really well if its a sinus reaction. its a capsule. its amazing. their products seem to be top quality. good luck. allergies sometimes mean the liver needs some support to bring up the antihistamines.

I've tried it on myself to see if it's accurate and it's usually off by a degree or two. So I would say it isn't the best resource. A degree or two can make a huge difference in a child's fever.

When I was 51 years old, I spent 10 days in the hospital for surgery and complications. I was given children's vitamins. The nurses told me that was the policy in the whole hospital. As long as the children are as old as or older than the minimum age, these are appropriate. I am here to order children's vitamins for my adult self. (I also have a pediatric cardiologist, but that's another story!)
