Nutrient & Excipient Amounts: Excipients are the ingredients in a supplement that are necessary to maintain shelf life and stability. Many children's vitamin products contain a multitude of excipients such as food colorings, dyes, whiteners and preservatives to make the product appear more colorful. AVED-KIDS provides the best nutrients for pediatric patients instead of appealing to their visual appetite. AVED-KIDS Chewable Multi contains a minimal amount of excipients with binders which are inert forms of cellulose derived from plants.
