Do popular and widely advertised health drinks and supplements provide children the vitamins and minerals they need? Nutrition products make tall claims but a closer look at their labels will tell you that the RDA (recommended dietary allowance) of most products aren’t sufficient for your child’s needs.

Here’s a food chart to help you add vital vitamins to your children’s meals.
