Everything you need to make the call - who each one is for, and who should skip it.
Go for it if you...
Your child refuses gummies and chewables and needs a flavorless powder
You want broad nineteen-nutrient coverage with no sugar
An iron-free formula with low overdose risk matters to you
You can mix a stick pack into food or a drink each day
You want a trusted, independently verified gummy with omega-3 included
You want low added sugar for a gummy and a value price
You do not need the widest possible nutrient coverage
The main thing to know
EllaOla says it tests for heavy metals but publishes no results and has no independent product purity seal, and at over a dollar and a half per serving it is the priciest pick here.
It covers nine essential nutrients, narrower than a full multivitamin, and the brand lists it as discontinued even though it is still sold on Amazon, so confirm availability before buying.
Skip this if you...
You want a published heavy-metal test or an independent purity seal
Price per serving is a deciding factor
Your child will happily take a gummy and a powder is unnecessary
You want the broadest nutrient coverage in a single daily vitamin
You need guaranteed long-term availability from the brand directly
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?
