School has been in session for about a month now and with that, comes a lot of coughs, sniffles and bugs. I do not recall being sick much when I was in school, primarily because I was homeschooled and we weren't exposed to tons of germs outside of our house. We went to weekly homeschool group meetings and rarely did people come sick to that. Germs make me paranoid. I am not a "germaphobe", but I am definitely protective of my children and who they are exposed to, especially during this time of year. Flu season has not officially hit yet but when it does, you can bet I will be watching for those icky bugs. We do attend church two days a week and I know that sometimes, people come to church sick and inevitably, my children will catch things. So, to protect our little ones this school season, I am going to introduce you to a product that can help keep things in check.
Vitalah is a company that makes Daily Multivitamin Supplement Drinks for both adults and children. This drink is called Oxylent and it is designed to provide nutrition through a powdered drink mix...tasty and appealing to even the smallest of palates! Here is a bit more about Children's Oxylent...


I am all for having my children take vitamins and they do on a daily basis. From the time they are infants, they are on vitamin drops and when they get older, they get a chewable vitamin. Having a vitamin supplement that they can DRINK is phenomenal and as a mom, I am so excited about the potential of them drinking their vitamins and minerals.
So, for this review I was sent some Oxylent products to review and of course, my children loved being a part of this review! :) I was sent a box of Oxylent Sparkling Blackberry Pomegranate Supplement Drink packets, a small bag of miscellaneous items (chapstick, various flavored drink mixes, etc.) and a box of Children's Oxylent Daily Multivitamin Supplement Drink Stick Packets in the Bubbly Berry Punch flavor. Sounds yummy doesn't it?
The first product I had my children try was the Oxylent. This is geared more towards adults but they truly enjoyed it. It is a peachy color and really needs to be mixed well or you have particles in the bottom of the glass.
I think the flavor was wonderful and my husband in particular enjoyed the taste. He saw it on the counter and right away wanted to know if it was for him. Ha! I love all the good things that are packed into this drink mix...so great! You only really need 1/2 a packet per 4-6 ounce glass of water so a little goes a long way.
The Children's Oxylent comes in handy sleeve-type packages and are super easy to open. I love how the edges at the end are already perforated...I cannot tell you just how many times I have tried to open a package and have ended up getting a pair of scissors because the "easy to open top" won't open. These are soooo easy!
Did it pass my taste testers? Oh yes. Both of my older children LOVED this drink and I plan on giving them each a packet every day. We have a cold going around our house right now so the extra vitamins and immune system boost is going to be really helpful. So far, two out of my three children have the cold so hopefully we can keep the third one healthy. Hopefully. :)
So, to purchase Vitalah's Oxylent products simply visit their website. One box of Children's Oxylent retails for $24.95 and a Travel Pack of Sparkling Berries Oxylent retails for $8.95. When it comes to our family's health, wellness and nutrition I think that these prices are totally reasonable. I would definitely recommend Oxylent to anyone looking to improve their immune system this flu and cold season. Be sure to check out Oxylent on Facebook and also on Twitter. Hope you find them to be a help to you and your family!
