Support your bone health with added fizz. Osteocare Fizz turns scientific research on nutrition and bone health into a great-tasting orange flavoured drink.
Osteocare Fizz
Osteocare is the UK's no.1 calcium formula and has been scientifically developed on the basis of the very latest research to provide a rich source of calcium and co-factors including vitamin D which helps with the normal absorption of calcium by the body.
Osteocare Fizz makes a convenient, great tasting orange flavour drink and is ideal for those who have difficulty with swallowing tablets.
Osteocare Fizz contains the preferred D3 form of Vitamin D. Vitamin D3, also known as cholecalciferol, is the form of vitamin D that is produced by the skin on exposure to sunlight. D3 is the preferred form of vitamin D because it is the specific form made in the human body and therefore more effective than D2 which is found in some supplements.
Calcium plus co-factors
Osteocare Fizz provides 100% NRV (Nutrient Reference Value) of calcium (based on two tablets) carefully combined with co-factors including vitamin D, zinc and magnesium which help to maintain normal bone health.
Calcium is important for everyone
Ensuring an adequate intake of calcium is vital for men and women of all ages, as evidence suggests that healthy practices early in life, including the adequate consumption of calcium and trace elements, contribute to normal bone health and optimal bone mineralisation. Peak bone mass, obtained during childhood and adolescent growth is known to be of major importance in maintaining bones later in life. The UK Department of Health recommends that everyone should consider taking a daily supplement containing of vitamin D, particularly during autumn and winter.
Calcium is vital for older women
Both sexes lose bone mass during their lifetime but after the menopause women usually lose bone mass much faster than men.
Postmenopausal women have an increased risk of bone loss for three reasons:
- Bone mineral content tends to be lower in women than in men
- Dietary calcium intake may decrease with age
- The rate of bone loss accelerates at menopause
Calcium intake guidelines
The Royal Osteoperosis Society (ROS) recommends the following guidelines for calcium intake
| Age | Suggested daily calcium intake |
| 0-12 months (non-breast-fed infants only) |
525 mg |
| 1-3 years | 350 mg |
| 4-6 years | 450 mg |
| 7-10 years | 550 mg |
| 11-18 years boys/girls | 1000 / 800 mg |
| 19+ years | 700 mg |
| Pregnant woman | 700 mg |
| Breastfeeding woman | 700 + 550 mg |
Based on the Department of Health Committee on the Medical Aspects of Food and Nutrition policy 1998.
Based on scientific research
The formulation is based on the very latest international findings on the role of nutrients in normal bone health, as well as multiple large-scale scientific studies in the past 30 years.

Pregnacare Original
Expert nutrition for mother and baby
Pregnacare prenatal supplement is the most popular and trusted by mums to safeguard the diet of those who are planning for pregnancy or are already pregnant. A scientifically developed formulation of 19 important vitamins and minerals, Pregnacare contains 400µg folic acid and 10µg vitamin D, as advised by the UK Department of Health during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Pregnacare has been carefully developed by experts so that all ingredient levels are within safe levels for pregnancy and are moderate rather than excessive.
Recommended level of folic acid & vitamin D
The UK Department of Health recommends women planning a baby should take a supplement containing 400µg of folic acid from the start of trying to conceive until the 12th week of pregnancy. This is the exact amount of folic acid contained in Pregnacare. Supplemental folic acid intake increases maternal folate status†. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus.Folic Acid is also beneficial beyond 12 weeks as it contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy.
Important: Some pregnancy formulas do not include the exact 10 µg vitamin D, as advised by the UK Department of Health during pregnancy and breast-feeding.
More than folic acid alone - with B12 and key minerals
Many studies show the importance of ensuring the correct intake of various vitamins and minerals throughout the entire pregnancy and as part of an aftercare plan. Pregnacare provides a range of nutrients for overall support, all at sensible, carefully balanced levels, including vitamins B2, B6 and B12 which contribute to normal red blood cell formation.
Pregnacare avoids high dose iron which is not recommended
Unlike many prenatal iron supplements, Pregnacare has been specifically formulated with an ideal, moderate level of iron. High levels of iron are not recommended unless there is a particular requirement as identified by your healthcare professional.
Before conception
Pregnacare is recommended before conception to build up the stores of nutrients such as iron in women who are trying for a baby. Good nutrition is important to help prepare a woman's body for the additional demands placed on it during pregnancy. Certain nutrients, like folic acid, vitamin B12 and zinc are also of particular importance from the very first moment of conception. Zinc contributes to normal fertility and reproduction whilst vitamin B12 contributes to normal red blood cell formation and also has a role in the process of cell division.
For all of pregnancy
Good nutritional intake is vital throughout pregnancy, not just the first 12 weeks. Pregnacare provides essential nutrients throughout pregnancy including folic acid which plays an important role during the full nine months and contributes to normal blood formation. You can start taking Pregnacare at any point during pregnancy.
Specially formulated by experts
Pregnacare has been formulated by experts to help safeguard a mother's diet during pregnancy. It provides a comprehensive spectrum of essential nutrients at carefully chosen safe levels, developed on the basis of international research.

Pregnacare is proud to work in partnership with the Royal College of Midwives to support the health of mothers and babies by raising awareness of the benefits of good nutrition.
†The beneficial effect is obtained with a supplemental folic acid daily intake of 400µg for at least one month before and up to three months after conception.
** Folic acid contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy. Pregnacare has always contained 400mcg folic acid, the level recommended for all women from the start of trying to conceive until the 12th week of pregnancy.

Comprehensive supplement for kids

It is also recommended that everyone over the age of 4 years should consider taking a daily supplement containing 10µg Vitamin D, especially during the autumn and winter.
The challenges of healthy eating
Growth is especially rapid during the first 12 years of a child's life. Continuous development of bones, muscles, blood and the brain mean that children have a high nutrient requirement compared to their body size. Meeting those nutritional requirements can be a challenge, as it is common for children to be fussy eaters. You may experience your child refusing to eat certain foods, disliking certain tastes or textures, or being reluctant to try new foods. Children usually grow out of fussy eating and in the meantime nutritional supplements such as Wellkid Multi-vitamin Liquid can help safeguard a child's nutritional intake as part of a balanced diet.
Government surveys have indicated that children's diets can be low in certain nutrients such as iron, which contributes to normal cognitive development of children. This is especially true for vegetarians, as iron from non-meat sources may not be as easily absorbed by the body. Wellkid Multi-vitamin Liquid is formulated with moderate levels of iron and is suitable for vegetarians.
Support for rapid development
Wellkid Multi-vitamin Liquid is formulated with iodine which contributes to normal growth in children, plus vitamin D. Vitamin D is needed for normal growth and development of bones in children. It also contributes to their normal immune system function. The UK Department of Health recommends all children aged from 6 months up to 5 years should take a daily Vitamin D supplement.

Continuous development of bones, muscles, blood and the brain mean that children have a high nutrient requirement relative to their body size. Meeting these requirements can sometimes be a challenge and it is very common for children to be fussy eaters. You may find your child refusing to eat certain foods, or dislikes certain textures or tastes, or that they are reluctant to try new foods. The good news is that children usually grow out of fussy eating and in the meantime there are several small, easy actions that you can take to help mealtimes run more smoothly.
See our helpful guide 'How to deal with fussy eaters'
Government national dietary surveys have indicated that children's diets can be low in certain nutrients including vitamin A & D, and also iron, which contributes to normal cognitive development of children. This is especially true for vegetarians as iron from non-meat sources is not as easily absorbed by the body. Wellkid Smart Chewable is suitable for vegetarians and so is an ideal way of helping to ensure your child receives enough iron.
Many children are also not eating the recommended 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day and so may not be getting all of the vital nutrients that their bodies need for long term health and development. Some foods may have a lower than expected nutritional content and be low in certain micronutrients as a result of several factors including modern farming practices, the lengthy storage of 'fresh' food before it is sold in some shops and over cooking which can cause certain nutrients to breakdown. It is important to promote a healthy diet and lifestyle in children and encourage positive eating and exercise habits for later in life. Food supplements are of course not a substitute for a healthy balanced diet!

For your child’s active lifestyle, this is a convenient way to safeguard their intake of essential fatty acids and Vitamin D.
Wellkid Omega-3 Chewable
The importance of Omega-3
Over the last 10 years, the awareness of the importance of Omega-3 has grown, and ensuring your child receives enough Omega-3 is a valuable step towards giving him or her the best start in life. Results from the National Diet and Nutrition Survey (NDNS) suggest that the consumption of oily fish, which is the main source of beneficial Omega-3 fatty acids, remains low, with children eating well below the minimum recommendation of one portion per week.
Omega-3 can be found in oily fish, such as mackerel, sardines, trout and tuna. However, as mums know, many children do not like the taste of oily fish so it can be difficult to ensure your child is getting all the Omega-3 they need and the minimum one portion per week.
Great tasting with no fishy aftertaste
Kids can be very particular about their likes and dislikes, so it is important to give them a supplement that tastes great, has no fishy aftertaste, and which they are happy to take. Wellkid Omega-3 Chewable is a premium quality soft chewy capsule that provides Omega-3 fish oil that’s sugar free and a delicious natural Jaffa orange flavour that kids love.
For active children aged 4 to 12 years
Wellkid Omega-3 Chewable capsules have been developed for active children aged 4-12 years, to provide an ideal source of Omega-3, including the essential fatty acids EPA (Eicosapentaenoic acid) plus DHA (Docosahexaenoic acid). EPA and DHA are classed as essential fatty acids because they cannot be made by the body efficiently and therefore must be obtained through the diet. More and more published research is highlighting the importance of these essential fatty acids.
With 10µg Vitamin D (per 2 capsules), the level recommended by the UK Department of Health. Vitamin D is needed for normal growth and development of bone in children. It also contributes to their normal immune system function.
The soft chewy capsules have been developed by Vitabiotics' expert nutritional team with the highest standards of purity and quality control.
The growing importance of Vitamin D3
Vitamin D plays a truly remarkable role in the body. It is essential for all-round good health and is needed for normal growth and development of bone in children. New research shows that optimum intake levels of vitamin D may be far higher than previously thought. Vitamin D3 is the body's preferred form of vitamin D. Vitamin D is synthesized by the body on exposure to sunlight, however many parents are now following health advice to avoid too much sun exposure and be extra careful with children's delicate skin, often using high SPF sun creams, which reduces vitamin D levels in the body. It is therefore especially important for children to get this from their diet or from a nutritional safeguard such as Wellkid Omega-3 Chewable which includes the 10 µg Vitamin D (per 2 capsules), the level recommended by the UK Department of Health.
Vitamin D in the diet
Vitamin D is naturally present in only a limited number of foods, for example, oily fish such as herring and sardines, fish liver oils, eggs and butter. However, these may be foods that are difficult to get children to eat regularly. Because vitamin D is fat soluble, advice to eat lower fat diets and the raising concern about childhood obesity may contribute to reduced intakes from foods rich in Vitamin D and hence dietary supplementation may be recommended.

Now extra nutrients can feel like a treat. Wellkid Soft Jelly Pastilles aren’t just a source of 11 important nutrients– they’re super yummy, too.
Wellkid Soft Jelly Pastilles
Great tasting multivitamin - in delicious natural Strawberry flavours.
Wellkid Soft Jelly pastilles provide a multivitamin formula to help safeguard the nutritional intake of children aged 4-12 and are available in two great tasting flavours: Strawberry and Orange. No other supplement for children provides 11 vitamins plus flaxseed oil. Wellkid Soft Jelly includes all eight B-complex vitamins plus vitamin C, D and E. Two pastilles provide 10µg vitamin D as recommended by the UK Department of Health. Vitamin D is needed for the normal growth and development of bone in children.
For parents particularly concerned about the normal bone health of their children we recommend Wellkid Calcium Liquid, which can be taken alongside Wellkid Soft Jelly, which contains calcium and vitamin D, which are needed for the normal growth and development of bone in children.
The challenges of healthy eating
Growth is especially rapid during the first 12 years of a child's life and children have a high nutrient requirement relative to their body size. Meeting those nutritional requirements can be a challenge, as it is common for children to be fussy eaters. You may experience your child refusing to eat certain foods, disliking certain tastes or textures, or being reluctant to try new foods. Children usually grow out of fussy eating and in the meantime nutritional supplements such as Wellkid Soft Jelly pastilles can help safeguard a child's nutritional intake as part of a balanced diet.

A carefully balanced, expert formula that brings together the key nutrients needed specifically for the breastfeeding period, helping to safeguard your diet when it matters most. From Pregnacare - the UK’s No.1 pregnancy supplement brand.
Pregnacare Breast-feeding
A healthy, varied diet is vital for new mothers, to help produce nutritious breast milk and maintain their own health and wellbeing during the postnatal period. Maternal breast-feeding is strongly recommended for the newborn baby as it provides essential nutrients and antibodies for long term health. Pregnacare Breast-feeding is an all-in-one pack, formulated with key specific ingredients for the postnatal period, including essential fatty acids such as DHA.
Why take Pregnacare Breast-feeding?
The formula provides the ideal follow-on product for mums after childbirth, as part of the complete Pregnacare range from conception to breast-feeding.
Pregnacare Breast-feeding is carefully formulated by experts, with essential vitamins, minerals and DHA, to help support all-round health and vitality including iron which contributes to normal energy release.
Pregnacare Breast-feeding can also be taken as a general postnatal supplement for 6-9 months following childbirth or longer if required, to replace depleted nutrients and assist the body following pregnancy, even if you are not breast-feeding.
For mothers who avoid dairy products, the formula also contains calcium which is needed for the maintenance of normal bones.
Pregnacare Breast-feeding contains 10µg vitamin D as advised by the UK Department of Health during pregnancy and breast-feeding, the full RNI of 700mg calcium and 300mg DHA, the exact level recommended by international experts*.
Careful support without excessive levels
Pregnacare Breast-feeding has been specially formulated by experts to provide sensible, balanced levels of vitamins and minerals. All ingredients have been included on the basis of scientific research with ideal amounts for breast-feeding.
Pregnacare Breast-feeding provides:

-700mg calcium, vitamin K & D and magnesium which contribute to the maintenance of normal bones.
High Purity Omega-3 capsule
-Each capsule provides 300mg DHA, the level recommended by international experts* (ISSFAL) for mums during lactation.
Maternal intake of DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) contributes to the normal brain and eye development of breast-fed infants**
-Infants have limited capability to synthesize fatty acids, which therefore must be obtained direct from external sources such as the mother's milk.
During breast-feeding, the infant's brain continues to take up DHA and 15% of brain growth occurs after birth.
Fish oil produced to high GMP*** quality. Certified for sustainability by Friend of the Sea.
*Journal of the American College of Nutrition, Vol. 18, No. 5, 487-489 (1999)

A superior source of Omega-3 which has a greater level of absorption in the body compared to standard omega 3 found in fish oils, with no unpleasant fishy odour, taste or aftertaste. From the UK’s No.1 vitamin company.
Ultra Red Krill Oil
Pure Krill Oil: Superior Omega-3
Ultra Red Krill Oil offers a superior source of Omega-3 with many important additional benefits, designed to meet the highest standards of quality, purity and effectiveness.
Ultra Red Krill Oil provides 500mg of pure Krill oil, a special source of Omega-3 with a high concentration of marine phospholipids so may be better utilised in the body than standard Omega-3 found in fish oil. Ultra Red Krill Oil provides essential fatty acids for the normal function of the heart, brain and vision all within an easier to swallow smaller capsule with no unpleasant fishy odour, taste or aftertaste.
As well as Omega-9 fatty acids, Ultra Red Krill provides Omega-3, a rich source of the essential fatty acids DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) and EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid).
EPA and DHA are classed as essential fatty acids because they cannot be made efficiently by the body and must be obtained through the diet.
- DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal vision and brain function1
- DHA and EPA contribute to the normal function of the heart2
Important: Ultra Red Krill contains only pure Krill oil, rather than Krill oil combined with ordinary fish oil as found in some products.
What are the benefits of Krill Oil over other Fish Oils?
Ultra Red Krill Oil is a smaller soft gel capsule than most traditional Omega-3 supplements, and has no fishy odour or taste. Unlike the fatty acids provided by other sources of Omega-3, Ultra Red Krill Oil is not dependent on bile for digestion and disperses in water. This means Ultra Red Krill Oil is able to disperse in the small intestine not the stomach so there is no unpleasant fishy taste, burping, odour or reflux.
Krill Oil Omega-3 is also naturally low in toxicity and pollutant free compared to other sources of Omega-3.
✓ High Concentration Phospholipids for superior Omega-3 absorption
✓ High quality source of EPA and DHA
✓ 100% natural Antarctic Krill oil
✓ No fishy taste
✓ No fishy odour
✓ No reflux
✓ Small capsule
With naturally present Marine Phospholipids
The Omega-3 in Ultra Red Krill Oil has been shown to have the same benefits as fish oil Omega-3 which supports normal heart and brain function, but with better efficiency due to the presence of phospholipids.
Research indicates that phospholipid bound Omega-3 fatty acids may have greater bioavailability for cell growth and functioning, compared with Omega-3 triglycerides3.
Ultra Red Krill Oil takes the Omega-3 phospholipid form, rather than the Omega-3 triglyceride form found in fish and cod liver oils.
Phospholipids are key structural components of our cell membranes, which are involved in the transport of molecules across the cell membrane. Ultra Red Krill Oil provides Omega-3 in phospholipid form, mainly as phosphatidylcholine, which means it is more easily transported across cell membranes to where it is utilised.
Omega-3 phospholipids follow simpler digestion and distribution routes in the human body. Simpler digestion in the small intestine before absorption is one of the possible reasons for the greater uptake of Omega-3 phospholipids in the human body compared with standard Omega-3 triglycerides.
Ultra Red Krill Oil and the environment
Ultra Red Krill Oil is a pure, natural source of Omega-3 providing EPA and DHA as well as Astaxanthin. Harvested in the Antarctic, Krill Oil is pollutant free, with presence of natural Astaxanthin giving the oil a deep red colour.
The presence of Astaxanthin also helps to keep Krill oil stable without the need of additives, protecting the beneficial Omega-3 fatty acids from becoming rancid due to oxidisation. Consumers can feel assured that they are choosing the highest quality form of Omega-3.
Ultra Red Krill Oil is sourced by Aker BioMarine who co-operate closely with WWF-Norway (World Wide Fund for Nature) to support work on sustainable Krill management.
In June 2010, Aker BioMarine's krill fishing operations received MSC certification as a sustainable fishery, making Aker the first MSC-certified krill fishery in the world.
Proprietary Eco-Harvesting technology uses a specially designed trawl system that singles out unwanted "by-catch" and releases it unharmed. Eco-Harvesting restricts environmental impact and prevents enzymatic degradation of the Krill oil, allowing for greater preservation of all key nutrients in the end products, and provides for complete utilization of the product without waste.
