According to UNICEF, more than 50% of kids suffer from hidden hunger, a nutrient deficiency that can wreak havoc on nutrition, behavioral development, and overall health.
When kids lack some specific nutrients, it can lead to poor appetite and altered taste buds, which increases the likelihood of picky eating! This creates a cycle where unhealthy food makes kids crave more of it and turn away from fruits and veggies.
That’s why UNICEF recommends a daily multivitamin as an effective intervention. Vitamins like B12, D, B1, and Folate help enhance appetite and taste preferences, encouraging a more varied and balanced diet.*
