Lucky Vitamin is happy to introduce a brand of unique and revolutionary products to our customers: My Brest Friend.

My Brest Friend offers the first pillow specifically designed for breastfeeding. The company is fully dedicated to providing the highest quality and most useful breastfeeding support products for moms and babies all over the world.

With no choices available to new moms just a few years ago, My Brest Friend pillows were developed in a “laboratory” of new moms, babies, and breastfeeding experts who set out to create a pillow whose sole purpose was to answer all the needs of breastfeeding moms and babies.

Today, My Brest Friend’s patented wrap-around design has made fans in over 33 countries as well as being used in hundreds of NIC units and birthing hospitals. It is the number one choice of lactation consultants and consistently earns raves among nursing mothers, with reports of helping them achieve longer holding and feeding cycles with their babies.

Among the features and benefits, the My Brest Friend pillow offers back rest to help you maintain good posture during feeding, preventing sore backs and necks, as well as arm and elbow rests to eliminate shoulder stress. The unique wrap around design secures to the body, helping mom and baby maintain ideal positioning during feeding. The pillow also has a one handed adjustable silent release strap buckle for easy-off which can be extended for larger sizes. The firm, flat front cushion eliminates gap between you and your baby, preventing the baby from rolling in or away during breastfeeding.

Lucky Vitamin is introducing a unique line of food products for kids: Ella’s Kitchen.

Ella’s Kitchen provides an opportunity to eat better and healthy foods. The company fully believes eating can be fun, tasty, and cool for kids, taking a “kid’s view” when making all products from the color, texture, and flavors. In fact, it was a child’s idea to name the smoothies yellow one, and red one. Makes sense in a kids’ world and that’s what Ella’s Kitchen aims to do: make kids feel safe to try and enjoy healthy foods in a fun way.

Ella’s Kitchen offers yummy 100% organic foods available in several flavors. Organic food contains higher levels of vitamin C and essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron and chromium. The company ensures that no nasty additives are used as food additives can cause health problems such as heart disease, osteoporosis, migraines and hyperactivity.

Ella’s 1 baby food and Smoothie Fruits are made by pasteurizing pureed fruits and vegetables.  This process gently heats the foods to 200ºF for a few seconds, fills the pouch and then holds the temperature for a few minutes. This processing is much more beneficial to the food than jarred baby foods or sauces which will go up to over 248ºF, often with the subsequent degradation of taste, color and nutritional content.

Any cooking process will break down some mineral and vitamin contents, and the more the food is processed the more is likely to be lost. Ella’s Kitchen believes the best processing is as close as homemade food, with a list of ingredients as simple and easy to understand as possible.

Lucky Vitamin is proud to present Branam Oral Health products to our customers.

Branam offers a premium line of natural and effective oral care products designed to deliver the optimum balance of natural purity and proven performance, combining great taste with efficacy.

Recommended by dentists and pediatricians, Branam Xylitol toothpaste and gels are the healthy way to fight tooth decay. Naturally formulated, these safe to swallow formulas are perfect for babies and kids and are available in super tasty flavors such as Yum Yum Bubblegum.

Branam’s formulations are powered by all natural xylitol to promote healthy gums and teeth. Xylitol is an all natural ingredient, clinically proven to help reduce bacteria and fight tooth decay. Approved by the FDA in 1963 as a natural alternative to sugar, xylitol is an odorless white crystalline powder with a pleasant sweet taste. Found in natural sources such as corn, birch trees, fruits and vegetables, xylitol has less impact on blood sugar than other sugars, and has only 9.6 calories per teaspoon, comparing to 15 calories for regular sugar.

Branam natural oral care products are 100% flavored and colored with natural vegetable juices. The company uses only natural ingredients to protect your family and the environment. Branam oral care system does not contain SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate), a very common ingredient in regular toothpaste products. SLS is a harsh chemical surfactant used commercially in the removal of oily stains and residues. The compound is found in high concentrations in industrial products including engine degreasers, floor cleaners, and car wash soaps. In household products, SLS is used in lower concentrations in toothpastes, shampoos and shaving foams. While many toothpaste manufacturers use SLS, Branam chooses to accomplish the same goal with a safe natural ingredient, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, derived from coconut oil.

In addition, Branam offers the perfect pacifier, critical to keeping your baby both happy and in good oral health. The patented Branam Ortho-Gibby pacifier was designed by a leading pediatric dentist in consultation with hundreds of parents of small children. This BPA free, phthalate free and dentist recommended pacifier promotes normal tooth eruption and jaw development while minimizing the sucking force that often leads to the spread of bacteria through the ear, nose and throat.

Lastly, Branam not only creates and develops products from the highest quality ingredients found in nature but is fully committed to explore and follow the most sustainable practices in search of these ingredients. Branam’s green philosophy embraces initiatives and practices that encourage sustainability in every aspect of all daily operations. All botanical and herbal ingredients are cultivated and harvested using environmentally sustainable practices. The company also has a team of packaging design professionals to develop environmentally friendly packaging. All Branam mouth rinses come in recyclable plastic bottles, and toothpastes are sold in sealed tubes to eliminate packaging waste. Branam products are not tested in animals and have earned the cruelty-free product seal from the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

Lucky Vitamin continues to support students and parents this fall, offering many products and supplements to promote a healthy return to school.

Kids are going back to school and parents are searching for “focus and attention” supplements to help in the learning process. Many kids face difficulties to stay focused in school and some kids may be considered overactive or hyperactive. Inattention is a very common problem in children and may lead to problems in school.

Children with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) are classified in three different groups: inattentiveness, hyperactivity and impulsivity or a combination on both.

Most common inattention symptoms are when children show difficulty paying attention to detail, sustaining attention in tasks or play, listening when spoken to directly, following through on instructions and failing to finish schoolwork. Kids with inattention problems are often forgetful in daily activities.

Hyperactivity symptoms are different and more complicated. Kids tend to leave seat when remaining seated is expected and run or climb in inappropriate situations. Additionally, children may talk excessively and have difficulty playing quietly.

Impulsivity symptoms are shown when children blurt out answers before questions have been completed or have difficulty awaiting turn or interrupts others conversations.
The majority of children classed as overactive, hyperactive or ADHD can be helped to varying degrees including guidelines for treatment.

Natural supplements for focus and attention can be helpful in some cases. Natural products may also be used to promote relaxation, a safer and healthier method than prescription drugs.

Parents often wonder if kids really need multivitamins. Children and teenagers may not need any additional supplementation if they have a healthy, well-balanced diet.
We all know kids don’t really pay much attention to their diets and exercise routine. We can’t blame them, as most kids spend their day playing and having fun.

However, now it’s time to go back to school and focus on learning. Educating your kids about eating habits is essential for their future. Kids or teens multivitamins may help and could be the difference for the early stages of their lives.

First, find out about the necessary nutrients for a growing child. Some kids can significantly benefits from supplements, particularly vitamins and minerals. A complete multi vitamin is important to supply vitamins and minerals your kids may be missing from their diet, keeping them in good shape for another school year. Kids playing sport may use supplementation to prevent injuries.  In addition, memory boosters and supplements to promote focus and attention can be extremely helpful.

Second, choose a good quality and good “taste” multivitamin. Check with your kids if they like chewable tablets or if they prefer a liquid form. If your kids like taste and form of a certain vitamin, they are less likely to stop taking it.

Lastly, explain the importance of taking a multi vitamin to prevent future health issues. Poor diets lacking important vitamins and minerals may cause several health problems for teenagers and early adults.

Lucky Vitamin is your favorite place for healthy “Back to School” savings, where you can find dozens of top-quality multivitamin for kids at our discounted prices.

An A.C.L. tear – for adults, it is one of the most feared injuries. Every twist, every impact leaves the athlete terrified that he has missed a crucial pop, that when he next puts pressure on his knee, it will fail to support him. He nurtures the joint, careful to use proper techniques, avoid dangerous contacts or come down too hard from a jump. If a tear does occur, surgery is a real possibility.  The athlete will go through hours of physical therapy, and it is likely that he will someday suffer from arthritis if not immediate joint instability. Thus the injury is, for the grown man or woman, a terrifying prospect, and for those who have not yet finished growing – for child athletes – it can be even worse.

The surgery that follows an A.C.L. tear could easily damage the growth plate, keeping a child’s leg bone from developing normally.  A once star athlete could be left with a left leg that is shorter than his right or a crooked limb, making excelling in sports considerably more difficult, and so doctors are hesitant to perform the operation. Researchers are looking for new options, safer procedures or any alternative that could keep the sports star active, but stubborn adolescents and continual risks are keeping them from complete success. And unfortunately, the number of young athletes suffering from A.C.L. tears is steadily rising.  So what should you, as a parent, do?

Basically, the only thing that you can do is remind your child to practice proper technique and to be wary of her knees.  An A.C.L. tear is frighteningly easy to incur, resulting from a quick twist, a sudden impact or an exuberant jump. And if your child is anything like the rest of the young athletes out there, she is competing year-round with an intensity that is not conducive to safety. If a knee injury does occur, it is important that it be taken care of immediately. Continuing to play on it, regardless of what has happened, will only worsen the injury. Ice, a splint, elevation and rest are the best cures along with a visit to the doctor. If it is an A.C.L. tear, you and your child must heed the physician’s advice, for he offers the best chance of getting her back on the field.

Kids love candy and it is inevitable they often want some sweets.

Some parents allow their children to eat plenty of candy daily, a very dangerous habit. On the other hand, some parents may be a little bit too strict, completely banning any sort of candy form their kids’ diet.

Whether you give too much candy, no candy at all, or the well-balanced “in between”, healthy candy may be the solution for your kids.

Most children love chocolate, lollipops and chewing gum. Kids can develop issues if they are never allowed to eat candy. It’s like completely cutting sweets from someone on a weight-loss diet. You can get immediate results but it may hurt goals on a long run.

However, it’s understandable why parents do not want give candy to their kids.  The vast majority of products have high amounts of sugar and chemicals. That’s the main reason parents should look for organic and healthy candy.

Most natural candies use natural fruit extract and are not considered unhealthy or junk food. It may be a good opportunity to get your little ones accustomed to a certain fruit taste. If they refuse to try watermelon or peach, give them an organic natural lollipop and they may like the flavor and eventually try the real fruit.

In addition, snacks do not always have to be candy, chips or chocolate. Many kids enjoy eating dried fruit and nuts, a very healthy alternative for snacks in between meals.

Remember: if your kids are eating healthy, they are likely to develop a healthy lifestyle and prevent many potential health problems caused due to an unhealthy diet.
