In this episode of the Dads Toolbox we had the chance to talk with Clay Nichols of SmartyPants Vitamins about the importance of vitamins for our kids today.
Clay Nichols told us that joining the SmartyPants Vitamins company was a family story. It was his sister that started the company. She started the company because she would walk into the store and be bewildered by all of the options and not knowing what was quality and what they could trust. She decided to start a company out of her garage and soon the company started to pick up momentum and Clay Nichols’s sister knew that she needed to explore and expand marketing online which was Clay’s forte.
SmartyPants is now in over 20,000 stores across the country and in every Walgreens in the country.
In talking about Kids vitamins Clay Nichols mentioned that SmartyPants vitamins are very careful about what they put into the vitamins as they personally take the vitamins and have their kids take them too.
One of the things that SmartyPants wanted to do was acknowledge that some days we have to make sacrifices in our diet and they made a vitamin that focussed on widespread deficiencies that we tend to see. So you will see Vitamin D and Omega 3 Fish Oil in their vitamins to help supplement the vitamins that we need for our bodies.
SmartyPants Vitamins also knew that in making a vitamin that tasted great that they needed to be careful over the potential for overdose. They decided to limit Iron in their vitamin to make sure that if kids take too many that they would not be at risk.
They also have a wonderful partnership with Vitamin Angels which is a one for one grant program for malnourished kids worldwide. They have made over 1.7 Million Vitamin Angel grants to Vitamin Angels.
We have partnered with SmartyPants vitamins to let you know about the quality of these vitamins. As mentioned in the show we do not enter partnerships like this lightly. We vet everyone and try things out with our own families and we stand behind what SmartyPants provides.
About SmartyPants Vitamins
SmartyPants vitamins are more than multivitamins. They’re the galaxy’s best tasting gummy vitamin that delivers at least ten essential nutrients, including vitamin D as D3, B12 as methylcobalamin, plus omega 3 EPA and DHA fish oil – all in one.
SmartyPants includes the nutrients that seem to be the hardest for some people to get from diet alone. Each serving is also an excellent source of vitamins A, C, E, B6, B12, folate, iodine, and zinc. They use the forms of these nutrients that are easily absorbed by the body whenever possible. Their fish oil is eco-friendly. SmartyPants are non-GMO, contain no synthetic colors, flavors, or preservatives, and are gluten, casein, and allergen-free.
They stand by what they claim on their label; they test each batch for purity and potency in an independent lab.
For every bottle sold, they also make a matching nutrient grant to Vitamin Angels.
SmartyPants Vitamins – The Good Gummy: Good ingredients. Good taste. Good works.
