Gelatin - a superfoods for kids!
Gelatin is an incredible super food - it boosts immunity, repairs your digestive tract, promotes healthy skin, reduces inflammation, balances hormones, curbs cravings and strengthens bones and teeth!
Our Gut-Loving Jelly Gummies are a cheap, easy and fun way to include gelatin in your kids diet, and the kids will love them!
Here are my top 5 reasons why gelatin really is a kid-friendly super food:
-
Heals the gut - the amino acid, glycine, stimulates the production of stomach acid to help breakdown our food into nutrients. It also soothes and nourishes the lining of the gut, healing and preventing leaky gut and aiding the absorption of vitamins and minerals.
-
Supports healthy bones and joints - bone and joint health is essential in the early stages of a child’s development. Glycine helps keep cartilage, skin and bones healthy, giving growing bodies strong foundations for future growth and development.
-
A balanced source of protein - every cell in our body is made up of protein. Our bodies require protein for maintenance and repair but it’s especially important for kids because it supports their rapid growth and development – babies and toddlers require more protein than older kids and adults.
-
Improves sleep & reduces anxiety - yep! Sleep is a common problem among so many kids these days and studies have shown glycine can improve sleep quality and efficacy, lessen daytime sleepiness and improve performance of memory and recognition tasks. Glycine also decreases anxiety and helps calm little minds.
-
Balances blood sugar levels - glycine can help support blood sugar control. Consuming glycine alongside glucose stimulates the body to secrete insulin allowing the body to more effectively get glucose into our cells and use it for energy.
