A diet full of fresh fruit and veggies is vital for every child’s healthy growth and development. Support your child’s nutritional intake of key vitamins and minerals with Fusion Kids’ Nutrient Ninja, a delicious-tasting multivitamin specially formulated for growing kids.

Kids’ Nutrient Ninja contains 24 nutritionals, including vitamins, minerals, bioflavonoids, betacarotene and lutein. Read on to learn more about key ingredients in this comprehensive formula.

Iodine supports kids’ growth and development

Along with several other nutrients in Kids’ Nutrient Ninja, the trace mineral iodine plays an important role in supporting children’s normal, healthy growth and development, so may be a particularly important consideration in your child’s diet.

Seafood and seaweed are good sources of this vital mineral.

It’s also found in other foods (like meat and vegetables), but its levels from these sources vary, especially as the soil in some parts of Australia is iodine-deficient*.

Most commercially produced bread in Australia is fortified with iodine to help reduce the risk of inadequate consumption, and in small quantities, iodised sea salt is another dietary source that can provide iodine in your child’s diet*.

Selenium maintains children’s growth and development too

Like iodine, selenium is essential for maintaining children’s healthy growth and development, and is found in fish, seafood and meat. It’s also present in Brazil nuts, garlic and brewers’ yeast.

Selenium works closely in the body with iodine and vitamin E, among other nutrients.

Iron supports kids’ cognitive development

Cognition is the term used to describe various aspects of mental function, including the ability to learn, understand and use logic. Childhood is a time when all of these skills accumulate at a rapid pace.

Iron helps maintain children’s healthy cognitive development. It’s found in a range of foods in the diet, but is better absorbed in the haem form that’s found in animal-based foods like meat and eggs (as opposed to non-haem iron as is found in spinach and other leafy green vegetables).

Choline also supports children’s brain and nervous system development, where it works by aiding in the production of neurotransmitters (brain chemicals).

Vitamins for healthy bones and teeth

Vitamins A, D3 and K2 support healthy bone building in 2 to 12 year olds, and also support the development of healthy teeth.

For example, vitamin K2 supports the incorporation of minerals like calcium into the teeth (mineralisation), which contributes to their strength and hardness.

B-vitamins and energy production

Active, growing kids need lots of energy to get them through their busy days. The B-group vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6 and B12 support children’s cellular energy production, and also their healthy growth and development.

Zinc supports a healthy appetite

Taking a zinc supplement supports a healthy appetite in children whose dietary zinc intake is inadequate.

Ziziphus: traditionally used to calm kids’ nervous tension

In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), ziziphus (also known as jujube or red date) is traditionally used to calm the mind, soothe the spirit and relieve children’s nervous tension.

It’s also traditionally taken in TCM to support general health and wellbeing and by nourishing the blood and Qi (life force energy), and to strengthen the spleen and thus relieve loss of appetite.

Our popular Hair Tonic is now better than ever, with a new improved formula.

Features and benefits

Fusion Hair Tonic includes:

• Biota, traditionally used to decrease hair loss and improve hair growth in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)
• Biota is also traditionally used to help maintain healthy hair follicles and to relieve scalp irritation by cooling blood heat in TCM
• An increased dose of dong quai, which is traditionally used as a blood tonic that improves hair health in TCM
• Plus the traditional Chinese herbs rehmannia root, white peony, Chinese licorice, cuscuta and Szechuan lovage

How it works

Fusion’s new improved Hair Tonic formulation is based on the traditional Chinese understanding of the role of the blood in the health of the hair.

In TCM, the hair is traditionally believed to be nourished by the blood, which keeps it shiny and healthy.

On the other hand, hair loss, thinning hair, poor hair health and an itchy or irritated scalp are often attributed to excess heat in the blood in TCM.

Poor hair condition?

Dong quai is traditionally taken to improve the health of the hair and consequently enhance its condition and shine in Chinese medicine, where it’s traditionally regarded as achieving these effects by enhancing the health of the blood.

In TCM, dong quai is also traditionally regarded as having invigorating effects on the blood, improving its circulation to all areas of the body.

Losing your hair?

Up to 70% of men and up to 50% of women are affected by some degree of hair loss at some stage of their lives*.

In Chinese medicine, the herb biota (also known as Chinese thuja) is traditionally taken to reduce hair loss and improve hair growth.

Excess heat in the blood is regarded as a common cause of hair loss in TCM, and biota is traditionally taken to disperse the heat and help maintain the health of the hair follicles, which are the tiny dimples in the scalp that the hair grows from.

Got an irritated scalp?

When scalp problems are attributed to excess heat in the blood in TCM, biota is traditionally used to clear the heat from the blood and calm irritation.

Need nutritional support for your hair too?

Fusion Hair Tonic is suitable for use alongside Fusion Hair, Skin & Nails, which combines dong quai with silica, biotin and zinc – 15 nutritionals in all. Read more about the TCM Approach To Hair Health here.
