Vitamin D is a vital nutrient for our toddlers. It plays a key role in supporting healthy bone growth.
Iron on the other hand is needed for normal brain development .
The best dietary sources of vitamin D are oily fish (e.g. salmon, sardines, mackerel), eggs, and milks and cereals fortified with vitamin D.
Iron-rich foods include lean red meat, chicken, eggs and green leafy vegetables.
Irish scientific research has proven that growing up milk helps to increase intakes of key nutrients like iron and vitamin D in the diets of toddlers aged 1-2 years.2
Just 2 beakers* a day, as part of a healthy diet, helps give your toddler key nutrients they need.
