If your child is older than 36 months, Akta-Vite can be a great way to help increase their vitamin, minerals and dairy intake. Try adding a small amount to milk or non-dairy beverage, sprinkling over ice cream or yoghurt, or making Akta-Vite fairy bread. Akta-Vite contains no milk powder and can be mixed with soy or other non-dairy milks. Check with your Infant Health Centre professional for further guidance.

We do not advertise Akta-Vite as a Vegan product as Akta-Vite is fortified with Vitamin D3 to assist with calcium absorption. Vitamin D3, or cholecalciferol, uses a carrier oil that is derived from lanolin. Depending on your view, as the sheep are unharmed during shearing, you may be happy to consume Akta-Vite. Recent research points towards Vitamin D3 being up to three times more potent than Vitamin D2 (the plant derived Vitamin D that is vegan friendly). On balance, we feel that Vitamin D3 provides the best fortification for Akta-Vite.
