Question 1

Will Pharmanex Kids Jungamals raise my child's scanner score?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Pharmanex Kids Jungamals is SCS-certified, so it will raise your scanner score if you take it as directed for two months.

Question 2

What is SCS certification?

Accepted Answer

SCS certification means that our scientists are confident that this product will raise your skin carotenoid score, or SCS, as measured by our Pharmanex BioPhotonic Scanner. Carotenoids are a class of important antioxidants and can come from a variety of sources, including fruits, vegetables, and your supplements. If a product is SCS-certified, then you can expect that using it will increase your scanner score over time.

Question 3

What do different levels of SCS certification mean?

Accepted Answer

Higher levels of SCS certification correlate to larger expected scanner score increases and are based on the quantity and bioavailability of relevant nutrients in each product. In other words, you should expect to experience larger scanner score increases if you take a level II SCS-certified product compared to if you take a level I SCS-certified product.

Question 4

How does Pharmanex Kids Jungamals compare to the competition?

Accepted Answer

Jungamals is one of the most nutritionally balanced children’s daily multinutrient supplements available. Its optimized formula emphasizes the most important needs in childhood nutrition: growth and development, bone health, immune function, antioxidant protection, and common vitamin and mineral deficiencies.* This includes nutrients like calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, carotenoids, and choline, which are commonly low or missing in children’s supplements. Jungamals includes all this, but still has a delicious, kid-approved, low-sugar grape flavor that children absolutely love.

Question 5

Does Jungamals contain any artificial colors or preservatives?

Accepted Answer

Jungamals includes zero artificial colors or preservatives. We added a safe, tiny amount of natural color, and the product is kept fresh simply by its high levels of antioxidants, so no other preservatives are necessary.

Question 6

Why isn’t there any fluoride in the formula?

Accepted Answer

Fluoride is not FDA approved for use in dietary supplements. Fluoride administration must be individually assessed by a physician or dentist in consideration of local drinking water fluoridation practices and dental health.

Question 7

Why should I give my child Jungamals?

Accepted Answer

Children don’t always get the right amounts of nutrients from their diets alone. Jungamals was carefully formulated to provide your child with the right amounts of the right key nutrients that are important to support healthy growth and development.

Question 8

Is Jungamals Safe?

Accepted Answer

Of course! Jungamals was specifically designed for children ages 2–12, with ingredients and doses scientifically proven to be safe. We carefully looked at the nutritional needs of children and made sure none of the ingredients exceed upper limits of safety.

Question 9

Why does Jungamals include chlorine?

Accepted Answer

Choline is one of many essential nutrients that must be obtained from dietary sources or supplementation. Unfortunately, many individuals are deficient in this important nutrient. Choline is important for brain development by acting as a precursor for a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine. This important messenger in the brain is involved in memory, learning, and much more.

Question 10

Why is there sugar in Jungamals?

Accepted Answer

Jungamals contains more vitamins and minerals and in forms with higher bioavailability than common chewable or gummy children’s multivitamins. Unfortunately, these high-quality nutrients don’t always taste good. In fact, this is one of the characteristics of high bioavailability nutrients—they dissolve quickly for fast absorption, but that’s also what sometimes causes strong tastes on the tongue. So, a small amount of sucrose (less than a gram per tablet) and a small amount of xylitol are included in Jungamals to help improve its taste for children.
