Just find the cheapest kids chewable multi at CVS and call it a day.

Vitamins are all essentially the same

Best option is hiya. Not a gummy and doctor loves it. 10 of 10.

These actually have less nutrients than the common Flintstone vitamins when you compare

$50/mo for vitamins is for sure a scam.

Though not any multivitamin will do. Our pediatrician told us to make sure we got one with iron because our kid is a super picky eater and that's one of the primary concerns for a kid who avoids meat and vegetables.

We were also told by the dentist to avoid gummy vitamins.

We use Flintstones chewables. Judge away.

Agree with PPs that all vitamins are pretty much a scam. A vitamin company marketing at folks with kids with behavioral issues is a huge scam.

I take D, B12, and iron, but only because I've been found deficient in them and ordered by my doctor to supplement.

Every one of their 1 star reviews is a positive review. I could see 1 maybe 2 accidents with the reviews but they are all positive glowing reviews.

Try hiya — similar but great for kids.

I agree, most vitamins are a scam. My husband takes a shitload. But he is also overweight, and unhealthy. In the winter I take D based off my doctor's recommendation. That's it.

Yes of course the reviews are paid for. Just like MOST reviews you see online. You cannot depend on them.

Yes, almost all vitamins are a scam. You might not even need D - I don’t, and I stay out of the sun. I just drink enough milk I guess.

Unless a doctor tells you you need a vitamin, you’re fine. If you get it in your head that you’re deficient in something, ask for a test. And/or look for food sources.

Their website looks suspicious though - one of the subheadings was "The Ultimate Solution To Your Needs As A Woman" and another was "Get A peace of Mind" which screams, well, scam. Are all these 5* reviews paid? Has anyone actually tried these? They're like $50/month vitamins!

Most vitamins are a scam. The only supplements you & kids need is D.
