The taste they love,
the nutrition they need
Children need a sufficient intake of nutritious food to grow and develop
normally, but their nutrient intake can be reduced due to illness or fussy
eating. During this time of critical growth, it is essential that children
receive not only an adequate supply of micronutrients (vitamins and
minerals) but also macronutrients (protein, fat and energy in the form
of carbohydrate). Sustagen® Kid Essentials® is a delicious nutritionally
complete supplement for children aged 1 to 10 years.
Nutritional supplements may be recommended when:
•
•
•
•
•
Children aren’t eating and drinking as much as they usually do.
Help is needed with weight gain or to slow down weight loss.
Growth is suboptimal.
Nutritional intake is reduced due to illness.
Appetite is poor as a result of medical treatment.
Ask your healthcare professional if Sustagen® Kid Essentials® can help.

Kids’ Nutrition:
Your child’s nutritional needs
A child’s dietary needs will vary depending on age, growth rate, amount of exercise and eating habits.
The advice given here is intended as a guideline. A wide variety of foods will give your children all they
need to grow up healthy.
What children need to make them full of energy.
To enjoy good health, grow normally and meet their daily energy needs, children need:
Protein: used to build and repair cells in the body.
Found in dairy products, meat, seafood, eggs,
nuts, legumes, grains and cereals.
Carbohydrates: provide fuel for the brain and muscles.
Obtained from breads, cereals, potatoes, rice, pasta,
legumes, fruit and sugar.
Fats: provide the body with reserves of energy
and are important for healthy cells. Found in oils,
butter, margarine, full cream dairy products,
nuts, seeds and avocado.
Water: the main component of the human body.
Obtained from drinks but also from foods such
as fruits and vegetables.
5
Minerals (calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron etc.):
energy, strong bones and healthy blood cells.
Calcium can be found in dairy products; phosphorus
in dairy products, meat and fish; magnesium in cereals;
and iron in meat, legumes and cereals.
Vitamins: are important to ensure that the processes
in the body function optimally. Vitamins are essential
because the body cannot make many of them and,
therefore, we need to get them from food. There are
several types of vitamins and any one food does not
contain all of them in adequate amounts. Eat a variety
of foods from the core food groups in order to meet
your daily requirements for all vitamins.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should my child consume
Sustagen® Kid Essentials®?
Sustagen® Kid Essentials® is nutritionally complete,
and as such it can be used in addition to meals as a
nutritional top up, or to replace meals at the supervision
of a healthcare professional.
Is Sustagen® Kid Essentials® the same as a
vitamin supplement?
No – Sustagen® Kid Essentials® contains macronutrients
(protein, carbohydrates and fat) as well as micronutrients
(vitamins and minerals). Vitamin and mineral supplements
contain micronutrients only.
Is it safe to use for children under 12 months?
No – human breast milk alone is the best source of nutrients for
infants and is the gold standard for good nutrition. Human milk
provides nutrients in the quantities and proportions required
to sustain an infant’s growth and development during the
first months of life. It also strengthens the immune system
of your baby, helps keep your baby healthy and improves
development. A healthcare professional will be best placed
to provide advice on infant nutrition.
Will Sustagen® Kid Essentials® help my child?
A nutritional product such as Sustagen® Kid Essentials®
may be recommended by a healthcare professional if your
child is nutritionally deficient, however for healthy children
with adequate dietary intake, supplementation is not
necessary. If you have concerns, always speak to your
healthcare professional.
Is it safe to use for children over 10 years of age?
Sustagen® Kid Essentials® is specially formulated for
children aged 1-10 who are unable to meet their nutrient
requirements. Older children can safely use Sustagen® Kid
Essentials® as a nutritional top up but it is not suited as a
complete meal replacement. As older children and adults
have different nutritional needs it is important to consult
a healthcare professional such as an Accredited Practising
Dietitian for advice.
Can I mix Sustagen® Kid Essentials® with milk
instead of water?
Yes – Sustagen® Kid Essentials® can be mixed with water
or milk to suit the child’s preferences.
Why should I speak to a healthcare professional before
giving Sustagen® Kid Essentials® to my child?
All children have different nutritional needs based on their
current dietary intake, level of activity and their stage of
development. It is important that a healthcare professional
assesses all these factors in order to provide appropriate
dietary advice.
