Active Iron Supplement 7mg + Vitamin D for Kids, 30 Blackcurrant Chews

These Active Iron + Vitamin D chews are fantastic. They’ve really helped boost my child’s energy and focus, and I love that they’re gentle on the stomach, no constipation or discomfort at all. The blackcurrant flavour makes them easy for kids to take, and the combination of iron and vitamin D supports both growth and immune health. A well-designed, effective supplement that actually does what it claims. Highly recommend!

The bottle is quite large, and clear, with the chews all individually wrapped inside. The label states what the Active Iron is for, as well as the nutritional information. The label has a peel away side, which explains more about what the chews are for. Although it only states Vitamin D on the front of the label, the final ingredient states Vitamin D3. It also states that each chew contains 16 calories and 2.4g sugar. Calories are fine, but 2.4g sugar is quite high considering the average for children daily is around 19g. The lid is a push down and twist safety lid, which is rare to see on supplement bottles, but I assume it’s because its aimed at kids. There is a safety seal inside. The chew itself is a purple colour and square, easy to chew and tastes of a faint bit of blackcurrant. There may be quite a bit of sugar, but it’s not overpowering in taste, as in sweetness.

A great source of iron and vit D but honestly they’re one of the most horrible things I’ve ever tasted.

I know these are marketed towards kids but as someone who has lower iron levels these were perfect. I was expecting a somewhat metallic taste, given there is iron in these, but was pleasantly surprised and the vitamins are really nice and chewy and a generous size so do feel like a sweet treat in the morning. They do definitely taste like blackcurrant although muted but I personally think it's great and could see kids eating these. As it's active iron as well you can get it in your system quicker and with the vitamin D in these too, you get an extra boost. Happy with these.

Bought this for my daughter , she did like taking them but unfortunately gave her a bad tummy even when she was taking them any other day

Smell disgusting and taste disgusting do not buy for your kids

Great to use and kids are happy with the vitamins for kids works a treat.

Was disappointed with these, they looked so good, but my two weren't impressed with these. I'm always trying new vitamin gummies and chews and they just love to try them, but these weren't their favourite, after a few days they didn't want to have them anymore. The pot is a good size and the quality is very high, you can tell that from the second you open them, both the tub, branding and the individually wrapped 'sweets' are of excellent quality - it just came down to the flavour for them. I (naturally) tried one myself and I could see why. When something is 'blackcurrant' flavour you naturally expect to be sweet, but these aren't particularly sweet and have a kind of earthy undertone which just wasn't to their (or my) tastes. The chews themselves are identical to Chewits in size, shape and texture and are very well made, I just think that more people would find them appealing with some improvement to the flavour (and price point - these are very expensive for a product for children compared to others on the market). Worth a try but the flavour could do with an overhaul.
