Apart from asking the doctor (some may not be informed), give spirulina and royal jelly, and bee pollen!. These are natural and safe!. also, give Kombucha drink, as it is rich in B complex (especially B12, lacking in vegeterian diets)!.
For iron, give lentils, spinach and dried apricots!. Be sure to eat quinoa and buchwheat!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm not sure about giving your kids vitamins or if they really need them!. I have been a vegetarian from a young age too and apart from vitamin B12 I got all my daily requirement from a varied veggie diet!. Vitamin B12 can be found in Marmite or other yeast based products!. Breakfast cereals and meat substitues are fortified with vitamin B12!.

Hope these web pages help!.

Speak to a pediatrician or a nutritionist to work out a diet that will have the nutrients that your children need to grown and thrive!. There are many foods that they should be eating that may not be necessary for you!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

If you eat a balanced diet they won't need extra vitamins!. If they do need supplements then I would consult your doctor as to why!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

they don't need any vitamins
stop giving your children vitamins
that's not natural Www@FoodAQ@Com

Any old vitamins should be fine!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

ask at your local health food store!. they will know better than us!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
