What is Maxi Baby-C® Liquid by Country Life?

Keeping your baby healthy is your number one priority; especially during cold and flu season.  After all, a miserable, sick baby can place an entire household on hold!

Did you know that vitamin C not only builds baby’s immunity against the common cold, but also aids in many functions throughout his body–including tissue growth, the faster healing of wounds and providing healthy growth and development!  It also helps baby absorb iron and calcium from his food–nutrients needed for cell growth and strong bones and teeth.

Unfortunately, vitamin C for infants can only be gained via breastmilk if the mother is regularly supplementing vitamin C into her diet.  And I’m talking regularly. Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin–meaning it dissolves in water, and the leftovers leave the body through the urine. That’s why many health care providers and lactation specialists continue mothers on prenatal vitamins.

If you’re feeding your infant via formula, the news isn’t so good–during processing at the plant, vitamin C is all but destroyed.

The good news is, there are supplements safe for baby–and Maxi Baby-C® Liquid by Country Life is an inexpensive and tasty way of giving baby the vitamin C he needs.

Delivered in a cherry flavored liquid, Maxi Baby-C® Liquid by Country Life has been consumer tested (reviews are all over the net) and found to be effective for keeping baby healthy and strong.

So if you don’t relish being woken every hour from a fussy, fevered and ornery baby, you may want to consider Maxi Baby-C® Liquid by Country Life!

What’s in Maxi Baby-C® Liquid by Country Life?

Maxi Baby-C® Liquid contains:

• Vitamin C (as calcium ascorbate, acerola extract) 50 mg 143%-for healthy growth and development
• Bioflavonoids (non-citrus) 10 mg-to enhance the action of vitamin C

Is Maxi Baby-C® Liquid by Country Life Safe?

Yes–although vitamin C is a stimulant and may cause looser stools.  As such, I wouldn’t give it to him before bed!

Also, you’ll want to follow these dosage guidelines:

Infants – 6 months: One half (1/2) teaspoon (2.5 mL) twice daily
6 months – 12 months: One (1) teaspoon (5 mL) twice daily
12 months – 18 months: One and one half (1 1/2) teaspoons (7.5 mL) twice daily
18 months – 3 years: Two (2) teaspoons (10 mL) twice daily

And remember–you should always consult your physician before supplementing baby with anything!

Conclusion

At an average of $5.92 for a 4oz bottle (shop around online for the lowest price), Maxi Baby-C® Liquid by Country Life is an inexpensive way of supplementing baby.  Considering all the sickness I went through with my five babies (three of which were winter snow bunnies) I wish I’d thought of a using a vitamin C supplement!!!  DUH!!!
