A deficiency can cause rickets (softening of the bones) particularly in the first two years of life. Lack of vitamin D can also compromise bone density and strength and can even cause joint pain. Vitamin D is vital for the growth, development and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth.Here are some myths and facts about vitamin D.Doesnt my baby get vitamin D through breast milk? Infants that are partially or fully breastfed do not get enough vitamin D through breast milk and are at risk of poor teeth and bone growth, or even worse, developing rickets. Although breast milk does contain small amounts of vitamin D (about 25 IU per litre or less), it does not contain adequate amounts for rapidly growing babies, so supplementation with drops is necessary. Kids who drink a lot of milk and play outside get enough vitamin D? Not really. Due to the increased use of sunscreens and lifestyle changes that have parents moving away from dairy and more towards soy and nut milk, kids are absorbing lower amounts of vitamin D if their usual beverages aren't fortified. How do I know how much vitamin D is safe for my child? Health Canada recommends that all breastfed babies be given a daily vitamin D supplement of 400 lU, beginning at birth until age one. For children aged one to thirteen, the dosage should increase to 1,000 IU daily .**CanPrev D3 Kids 400 lU is a vitamin D supplement specially formulated for children. One drop daily helps develop and maintain healthy bones and teeth and prevents vitamin D deficiency.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eINGREDIENTS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ingredients-list\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"title\"\u003eMedicinal Ingredients\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"medicinal\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003eVitamin D3\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-amt\"\u003e400 IU\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003eVitamin D3\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-amt\"\u003e10 mcg\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"title\"\u003eNon-Medicinal Ingredients\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"non-medicinal\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003ed-alpha Tocopherol\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003eMedium chain triglycerides\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"CANPREV","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48202284630268,"sku":"47404601","price":10.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0767\/6906\/7260\/files\/854378001639_7ae2879f-09cf-40db-9252-6e8a6a23ae0a.jpg?v=1767289626"},{"product_id":"28107201","title":"PLATINUM Vitamin D3 Drops for Kids (Orange - 400 iu - 15 ml )","description":"\u003cstrong\u003ePLATINUM - Vitamin D3 Drops for Kids - 15 Millilitre(s) - NPN: 80026119\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVitamin D3 Drops for Kids is a natural, convenient and additive-free way for kids to get vitamin D3. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVitamin D3 Drops for Kids is ideal for children aged 2-12.

In Canada, we don’t get enough sunlight exposure from October through April to produce vitamin D synthesis in the skin. Evolution has given us the ability to produce vitamin D naturally in our bodies. You can synthesize it just under your skin with sun exposure at least to your face, arms, hands, or back without sunscreen. However the seasons, geographic latitude, time of day, cloud cover, skin cover, skin colour, smog, and sunscreen affect how much of the UV rays you absorb and synthesize.
