00:00hey hey it's sunday and it's time to go
00:03to the grocery store
00:05and check out some ingredients today as
00:08promised we are gonna do
00:09multivitamins who's excited before we go
00:13in and we talk ingredients i just want
00:16general rule i don't recommend
00:20multivitamins for everybody i think
00:23that your minerals and vitamins should
00:26come there a lot of kids out there
00:28that are really picky are eating a white
00:31diet and the mamas are stressing and
00:34want to be able to give them some
00:35vitamins while they're changing their
00:38and you know in those cases i leave it
00:40up to you i'm still of the
00:42well we gotta kind of still move along
00:44the fruits and vegetables but i
00:46understand it's a journey and sometimes
00:48do need a supplement as a bridge
00:51until we change the lifestyle just
00:54remember here's the thing
00:55if you just kind of move on with your
00:59you eat fast food and don't have a clean
01:01diet let's just say and then you take
01:03vitamin d and you're like oh
01:05well i'm taking my vitamin d for my
01:06immune system and i expect it to work
01:09that's not gonna happen because a
01:12is only a bridge when we're using
01:16as a we take that and then you don't
01:18change anything else about your life
01:20that's a medication so that's really the
01:22difference because everyone is walking
01:24loving on supplements and piling on
01:27without changing anything else so just
01:29remember those really become medications
01:32and the supplements are your bridge
01:35to help you get over to the well side
01:39but you've got to change your lifestyle
01:41let's go with a goodie hey my kids used
01:44so um look at this america's number one
01:47any who good news is they took out uh
01:50the food coloring so now
01:52well has a non-toe color which we know
01:55that we're not going to trust unless we
01:56actually know the company
01:57but it does have care concentrated
02:00purple care juice i mean hey listen
02:01they're trying to make it do something
02:03for better but here's my issue if we
02:06look at the vitamin d
02:08it's 400 international units
02:11babies are recommended 400 international
02:15units and i will argue that that's also
02:17on the low end a child needs a lot more
02:21international units of vitamin d if we
02:24at zinc if you're going to give your
02:291.4 milligrams ain't gonna do nothing so
02:32nobody got time for that
02:34iodine at 21 micrograms you need 150
02:40here that's for one gummy and of course
02:42you can double up the dose
02:43it's still just not anything significant
02:47of eight micrograms i don't even know
02:49what that's doing anyway so what i'm
02:51you're just gonna give this there with
02:53whatever additives including glucose
02:56lots of sugar they're gonna pee it out
02:58and it's not even doing anything now in
03:00this one they made it organic to make it
03:02so much more marketable the ingredients
03:06there's a still sugar and sugar and some
03:09whatever anyway the ingredients as far
03:11as the vitamins are is basically the
03:13same as the other one
03:14they just added organic to the front all
03:17flintstones pediatrician recommended i
03:20don't know who recommends this but
03:23look at this let's look they still have
03:25food coloring bluetooth
03:31yellow number six i'm not even gonna go
03:35this is food coloring never ever zarby's
03:38you know it says natural so therefore
03:41we don't care um the amount of vitamins
03:45in this are exactly the same as the
03:47they also claim to have a probiotic and
03:51bacillus coagulants i don't know what
03:53this bacillus is doing here
03:55but i'm pretty sure it's going to be
03:58so uh there's nobody regulating this so
04:02there's actually a live probiotic in
04:07what is that hey listen these guys
04:11uh i respect them they actually
04:14have some good stuff and let me show you
04:20preservatives artificial colors
04:22salicylate gluten blah blah blah
04:24so that's awesome and look for their
04:27fish they even talk about when they're
04:28where they get their
04:30omegas from all right and let's look at
04:34in here and it's 800 ius
04:37for four gummies so just you gotta eat a
04:42i'm liking the l-methylfolate is what we
04:45were talking about so we want to see
04:48b12 notice methyl cobalamin
04:51we that's methylated so that's a yes
04:54let's look at how much iodine
04:56it has in here 90 mcgs
04:59still not a lot because you gotta eat
05:00four of these a day and your zinc
05:02is 1.6 milligrams so really not that
05:06and so here let's look at the omegas
05:08right here epa and dha
05:1056 milligrams and 44 milligrams i mean
05:13honestly that's pixie dust so it's
05:15not a whole lot it makes them marketable
05:17because they put this in there but it's
05:19really big enough doses to make any
05:22difference and that's my issue with the
05:24generic multivitamins they don't have a
05:28that you really need they just put a
05:30little bit of a whole lot of things
05:31which you end up peeing out anyway
05:33so but anyway these guys i do like this
05:36brand out of the best that are the ones
05:38we talked about at this point i'm sure
05:40you're probably frustrated you know like
05:41okay so what are the daily
05:43recommendations for each of these are
05:45you supposed to be a nutritionist
05:46that knows all the differences no you're
05:50to your doctor and your doctor is
05:53supposed to help you
05:54identify the vitamins and minerals that
05:56are deficient in your
05:57lifestyle in your child and then come up
06:01plan really food that's going to replace
06:04the missing vitamins and minerals
06:06understand if there's an absorption
06:08issue because if you
06:10are not absorbing you can take all these
06:13and you're just going to improve them
06:14out and so the gut has to be in check
06:17and more importantly how deficient are
06:20and zinc and magnesium and calcium and
06:24that's why picking up a multivitamin off
06:28doesn't really do much because
06:31it's so tiny amounts in the multivitamin
06:35because they're trying to kill people or
06:37her children and so it's one vitamin
06:42and which really means that it's just
06:44tiny amounts that are doing
06:46nothing for everybody if that makes
06:49sense well you know i'm gonna be at
06:50whole foods let's talk about these
06:52all right multivitamin whole foods what
06:56well first of all this is from food
07:00so yay if we're looking at the vitamins
07:03again vitamin d is 400 ius
07:07let's go look at a folic acid that is a
07:11no folic acid because
07:14a lot of people cannot process it and
07:16you get a build up of folic acid
07:18and um that can cause a lot of
07:22b12 is not methylated so no thanks
07:25look at iron five milligrams oh calcium
07:27people are like oh i'm taking a
07:28multivitamin because i want my kids to
07:3120 milligrams is not gonna do anything
07:34children on average between 900 and 1200
07:37milligrams of calcium
07:38what's 20 milligrams going to do nothing
07:41iodine that's pretty respectable 100
07:43mcgs you should have about 150 mc
07:50okay rainbow light i like this brand
07:53let's get the multivitamins
07:55again in here folic acid
08:01b12 is not methylated iron is five
08:05calcium is 100 milligrams zinc
08:11just and again your vitamin d3 400
08:16yeah i mean if you're gonna say look
08:17it's got vegetable juice complex and
08:19some herbal tonics to make you feel
08:22just don't really see the point
08:25okay rainbow light i like this brand
08:27let's get the multivitamins
08:33folic acid b12 is not methylated
08:38iron is five milligrams calcium is 100

08:50yeah i mean you're gonna say look it's
08:52got vegetable juice complex and some
08:54herbal tonics to make you feel better
08:56just don't really see the point the mega
09:00dietary supplement you know this one is
09:06la you know herbals kind of stuff again
09:10folic acid says folia is like folic acid
09:13b12 is not methylated the vitamin
09:20again not a whole lot of stuff in here
09:23that's going to make
09:24a dent in anything this one is
09:29i don't know who gave them an award but
09:33b12 swim saying d3 you're going to start
09:37once you start looking at you're like oh
09:39they all have the same amount of stuff
09:42ingredients yes it matters if it's
09:45food or herbals or chemical but in the
09:48end it's still not gonna provide your
09:50child with a whole lot of stuff if
09:53you're like oh my gosh for the love just
09:56some idea to do something um
09:59if i was gonna do a global
10:03is that children are deficient in
10:04vitamin d and i've done a huge several
10:08you need d3 with k2 because the k2 helps
10:12and omega-3s essential fatty acids
