We recommend KendaKids Vita-Boost Shakes for children aged 2 and up. While our shakes are suitable for kids of all ages, it's important to consult with your pediatrician first.

Always check with your healthcare provider to ensure these products are appropriate for your child.

While KendaKids Vita-boost is nutritionally complete, it is not intended to be a meal replacement. KendaKids will supplement and complement a balanced diet.

Going back to basics, we rely on the goodness of nature, using the highest quality whole milk sourced from grass-fed cows on European family farms. Our signature whole milk base provides the essential fats, proteins, carbohydrates, and nutrients naturally present in milk, which support healthy growth and development. As our base, we use the highest quality milk sourced from grass-fed cows on European family farms. This provides essential fats, proteins, carbohydrates, and nutrients naturally present in whole milk.

We choose lactose because it offers several important benefits for your child's nutrition. Compared to table sugar or corn syrup, lactose has a lower glycemic index, which means it causes a slower and more gradual rise in blood sugar levels. This helps maintain steady energy and avoids the spikes and crashes that can occur with higher glycemic sugars, such as corn syrup. We believe in using ingredients that are as close to nature as possible. Lactose is naturally present in milk, making it a more natural choice than added sugars like corn syrup or table sugar. It’s also less processed, aligning with the growing preference for more natural and minimally processed ingredients.

Research has continued to demonstrate the importance of protein, especially for growing kids. Each Kendakids Vita-Boost shake contains 9g of protein per serving, much of which is from whey protein. Whey protein stands out from plant protein and even casein protein, particularly when it comes to muscle growth and recovery. It digests and absorbs rapidly, ensuring a swift delivery of crucial amino acids to muscles. Additionally, whey protein contains leucine, a key amino acid known for its muscle-building properties. Unlike many plant proteins, whey protein is considered a “complete” protein, meaning it provides all the essential amino acids your body needs but cannot produce itself. It's also highly bioavailable, making it easy for your body to utilize its amino acids efficiently.

Simply put, prebiotics feed the good bacteria in the gut, probiotics are the good bacteria in the gut, and postbiotics are what the bacteria leave behind even after probiotics themselves are gone, which continues to support your immune system. Postbiotics are bioactive compounds produced when probiotic bacteria in your gut ferment prebiotic fibers. These compounds include short-chain fatty acids, enzymes, and vitamins, and they offer various health benefits such as boosting the immune system, reducing inflammation, and supporting gut health.

KendaKids Vita-boost Shakes are ready-to-drink. Simply shake well and enjoy!. Kendakids tastes best served chilled, so you can pour it over ice to serve cold if you do not have the option to refrigerate before serving. Refrigerate once opened and consume within 48-hours of opening. Kendakids can also be mixed into other cold recipes such as smoothies or even made into popsicles for a fun and nutrient-packed boost.

Lactobacillus Paracasei is a type of good gut bacteria found in fermented foods and dairy products. It helps break down food, absorb nutrients, and combat harmful organisms. Lactobacillus Paracasei is known for its potential benefits in reducing allergy symptoms, improving skin health, and supporting the immune system.

For daily nutrition, around 45-65% of our calories should come from carbohydrates since carbohydrates are the body's primary source of energy. The primary carbohydrate source in KendaKids Vita-Boost Shakes is lactose, a naturally occurring sugar in milk and dairy products. In KendaKids Vita-Boost Shakes, the carbohydrates from lactose provide readily available energy to support active, growing children. Unlike corn syrup and maltodextrin found in other products, which have high glycemic indexes and can lead to spikes in blood sugar, lactose is a natural sugar with a lower glycemic index. This means it is digested more slowly, resulting in a gradual and less dramatic rise in blood sugar. Carbohydrates are the body’s preferred quick energy source, especially for the brain and muscles. Adequate carbohydrate intake helps with many body functions, including preserving muscles during exercise and aiding in the growth and development of children.

KendaKids Vita-Boost Shakes are packed with essential benefits to support healthy growth and development including: Immune Support, Building Muscle, Gut and Brain Health. Each shake is enriched with 27 essential vitamins and minerals, delivers 9g of protein, 32g of plant-based DHA Omega-3s, and a unique blend of prebiotics and postbiotics to support immune function, muscle growth, brain development, and gut health. Good milk fats further support your kids’ growing brain, while Vitamin D helps boost calcium absorption for strong bones and teeth. And the best part? They’re free from added sugars, syrups, artificial flavors, and colors. Every sip delivers the natural goodness your child needs- and nothing they don’t.

Available in Creamy Chocolate, Velvety Vanilla, and Smooth Strawberry flavors, it's perfect for busy families on the go, in lunchboxes, or as a snack you can feel good about.

We use natural flavors to create delicious and authentic taste experiences in our drinks. These flavors are derived from natural sources like cocoa beans, vanilla pods, and real strawberries. Natural flavors use distillation techniques (and sometimes fermentation processes) to intensify and extract delicious tastes from natural sources. Together these natural flavors are blended to create the notes kids love, like roasted, fruity, caramel, and honey notes. Our use of natural flavors was an intentional choice, and requires a lot of investment and research to get it ‘just right.’ The best bit? It allows us to avoid artificial flavors that are lab-synthesized rather than derived from nature and which can sometimes involve GMOs in their processing.
