Our Story With ActivKids Immuno Booster
Everything has changed, yet we are more ourselves than we have ever been.
And that’s how the #YesMomChallenge has brought about a change in our relationship.
Fussy, falling sick with every change in weather and sluggish – all this defined my elder one just a few weeks back until I took the #YesMom Challenge and then discovered ActivKids Immuno Boosters at an event by Cipla.
The challenge was to not say ‘NO’ to my kids but rather handle the situation with a yes. It took some time but I learned how to be more patient and tackle it. Taking the #YesMomChallenge has been a very calming experience for me.
I am not flaring up at every wrong but tackling it more peacefully. Kids are finding this change very pleasant and they are obviously happier. In fact, they are paying more attention to what I ask them to do and agreeing to do it as well.
Today, I want to share my experience of using Immuno Boosters with my elder son. While I received a box from Cipla for age 7 plus age group, my younger one (6 years) has been found popping it in his mouth every now and then. It’s tasty so convincing the kids was not a problem. Who doesn’t love chocolates?
Eeshan has been consuming ActivKids Immuno Boosters for almost a month now and while he loves the taste, there are mild changes that I have been noticing. I had told you that I have made him join a physical fitness group. Earlier by the end of the session he would feel completely drained out. I can see he feels more energetic now.
He also looks a lot happier and has less pre-teen mood swings. Physical fitness (which induces endorphins in the body) and Immuno Boosters (that provide him with missed nutrients) have certainly made a difference.

He also has been studying with more involvement. I believe that when you are happy mentally and physically, you are able to handle life stresses better.
The best part, I am more relaxed and don’t have to fight with him for every meal. While I believe a balanced diet is essential in a child’s growth, and I on my part, try and ensure he eats properly but sometimes while planning my meals might not be that particular. So while meals at home have a dal, vegetable, roti, salad, it gets tough to ensure that my kids eat all at every meal. With Immuno Boosters, this stress is off my list.
These are just a few things I have noticed as it’s been just about a month and I hope this phase will remain.
What is ActivKids Immuno Boosters?
ActivKids Immuno Boosters is a nutritional supplement for kids in a chocolate form that helps build their immunity and gives up to 100% RDA (Recommended Dietary Allowance).
The ActivKids Immuno Booster hamper I received at the Cipla event.
Why is it required and how does it help?
Do you know that the Indian kids do not receive even 50% of RDA5 of key immunity nutrients?
Access to Nutrition Foundation (ATNF) has come up a report this year that identifies India to be facing the double burden of malnutrition; i.e., Indian kids suffer from both undernourishment and obesity due to less knowledge of how important it is to lay stress on a child’s nutritional needs. More than one-third of the world’s wasted children (54 million) live in India.
Also, pollution, lack of physical exercises, adulteration in food they consume are some of the factors that can lead to a weakened immunity in kids making them prone to infections
For building up your child’s immunity, it is important for your kid to have a nutrient-rich diet. Immunity is an important aspect not only to fight season’s common flu and cold but for the overall growth and development of the body. Immunity is the foundation of good health of kids. Many micronutrients are missed as kids mostly do not eat nutrient-rich food like green leafy vegetables, carrots, beans, and others.
Nutrients That Are Present in ActivKids Immuno Boosters:
Vitamin A – Anti-infective
Vitamin B9 – Anti Immune Stress Vitamin
Vitamin C – Anti Cold Vitamin
Iron – Anti Microbial Mineral
Along with Vitamin B6, B12, Vitamin D and Zinc.
These vitamins have many benefits like
- Helps build immune strength to protect from germs.
- Helps in blood formation.
- Helps in immune cell formation and their activity.
- Antioxidant protection – Helps protect body cells against damage caused by free radicals.
- Skin barrier protection – Helps build the first line of defence against germ attack.
Permitted and safe dosage:
A box contains about 30 individually packed choco bites. 1 choco-bite daily provides kids with the daily nutrients that a kid needs and is box good enough to last a month.
Ingredients:
Milk compound, Milk Solids, Cocoa solids, Butterscotch sprinkles, Vitamin & minerals, emulsifier(INS 322), common salt, permitted natural colour, Stabiliser (INS 1400).
Allergens: Milk, nuts, and soya.
If your child is allergic to any of the above, please refrain from using it.
A healthy immune system helps the body to defend itself from diseases or potentially damaging foreign bodies. Supplements like ActivKids Immuno Booster helps give the child the much-needed immunity boost and lead a healthier life. The supplement comes in a choco-bite format that kids will definitely like and moms won’t have to run after them.
Each choco-bite contributes to less than 1% calorie from sugar of the total daily energy requirement and thus presents no risks of dental caries and high-calorie intake.
What We Loved:
- The taste – It tastes like a crunchy chocolate and we all loved the flavour.
- The packaging – Each chocobite is packed neatly in a separate wrapper.
- While it has sugar for taste. The sugar content is as low as 1%.
What Could be better:
- The pricing- 30 bites at 299 make for 10 rupees a day for something that is a supplement sounds a bit pricey.
- It’s got nuts and that puts a restriction as certain kids are allergic to nuts.
Others:
