This post it brought to you by Viactiv. I received two canisters of Viactiv Calcium Soft Chews for my own personal use. All opinions, text and experiences are my own.
My little girl is growing up right before my eyes. Gone are the days of baby and toddler-hood— my new reality is that I'm a mom to a tween girl ... and everything that goes along with it! One of the most important things I can do for her is to educate her on the importance of good health and nutrition. These simple lessons can put her on the right path into teen and adulthood.
One lesson that is often overlooked is the importance of calcium in females, beginning at a young age. According to a 2010 study published in The Journal of Nutrition, 86% of teen girls do not get enough calcium in their daily diets. This is critical because 95% of bone building happens by age 20.
My mother has been advised by her doctor to up her calcium intake because she is at risk for osteoporosis. She's actually the one who recommended Viactiv Soft Chews to me. Now that I know the importance of calcium for teen girls, I will talk to my daughter about how she can build strong bones through diet, weight-bearing exercise and supplementation, as needed, with Viactiv Soft Chews.
Viactiv Calcium Soft Chews are the #1 doctor recommended calcium supplement chew. Just two Viactiv Chews per day provides 100% of the daily value of calcium for most women plus vitamins D3 & K. They are intended to help achieve recommended daily dietary levels of these nutrients as a supplement to diet/food sources — and the best part? Viactiv taste great! It's the only supplement that I don't dread taking and I look forward to my daily dose of milk chocolate or caramel flavored soft chews.
