There is a lot of talk regarding preventative solutions this year however we hear very little about ways to build a strong immune system - but we all know the best offense is a good defense . Here are three essential products to give your kids immune systems the boost they need: 1 - HMF Fit for School Probiotics (plus contains Vitamin C and Vitamin D) : 70% of immune function comes from the gut.

They have numerous clinical trials for both safety and efficacy. Easy yummy little orange chewable tablet. 3 - Multi-Vitamin: To ensure their dietary needs are being met each day These three products are tried, tested and VK kid approved for taste! Help them to start the year off right! #backtoschool #healthykids #fitforschool #echinaforce #probiotics #multivitamins #snotswap #strongimmune #vitaminking #penticton #fewersickdays #vkkids #shoplocalpenticton

To our valued customers, peers, and community, No doubt about it, this is a scary time. Everyone is aware of the effects that COVID-19 is having on our friends, family, and global community.

Allergy season is on the Horizon! Before we know it the flowers will be peeking through, the grass will be getting greener and airborne pollens will be flying through the air. For most of us we count the days until then, but for those with allergies this can be a bitter-sweet time of year. After all these years in business there is one product that seems to help people that suffer from hayfever and pollen allergies...Meet Allergiplex! This preventative homeopathic product c...ontains minute doses of pollen and lung histamine which helps your body prepare for allergy season by exposing it to a small amount of pollen in advance. This helps your body build up a resistance so that when the pollen is released it doesnt bombard your system. The trick is to start it now! One tablet under the tongue once per week for the 10 weeks leading into allergy season. It can also be used in acute situations at one tablet a day for treatment. The wonderful part about this product is that year over year allergies tend to improve. So for those that already love it...friendly reminder to start now #allergies #hayfever #springtime #homeopathy #allergiplex #pollen #lunghistamine #naturalremedies #vitaminking #penticton #pentictonnow #vkfave

Its easy to see that beets pack a punch with that bright crimson colour and sweet earthy flavour - and this incredible superfood is blowing up in the natural industry! Beets are being revered for their use in cardiovascular health, to reduce blood pressure, increase athletic performance, and as a wonderful anti-oxidant for everyone in the family. So whats the deal? Why is everyone going crazy for beets? Two words: Nitric Oxide. When beets are consumed they increase nitric oxi...de in the body. This molecule is like a beach vacation for your blood vessels; helping them to relax and dilate. That allows more blood to flow through them, which means your muscle cells receive more oxygen and nutrients - exactly what they need to keep working. This is natures pre-workout supplement - It supports energy and endurance during exercise. This is why elite athletes around the world are using beets to enhance their performance. Beets dont stop there - they are also a wonderful source of anti-oxidants. They are particularly rich in anthocyanin, a phytochemical that protects against carcinogens and may help prevent heart disease. The only downside to beet juice is that daily visits to the juice bar get expensive and making your own juice at home is time consuming and messy. Thats why we love Salus Red Beet Crystals and are excited to introduce them to you! Every jar of Sales Red Beet Crystals contains 5.5 pounds of organic, vacuum-dried beets that are fresh-pressed within two to three hours of harvest. Mixed with water they make a pleasant tasting juice. But you can get creative too and add them to your favourite foods - other juices, soups, smoothies, yogurt, protein shakes, muffins and salad dressings too! Interested? Come and meet Jen on Feb.24th and try these juicy beets for yourself - better yet pick one up at our VK Heart your Heart Sale @ 20% off! #vksale #vkdemo #beetsforyourheart #nitricoxide #naturespreworkout #anthocyanin #superfoods #trybeforeyoubuy #vitaminking #penticton #pentictonnow

Calling all you DIYers out there! If you enjoy DIY projects or making handmade gifts you will love this simple recipe! Just the act of rubbing the skin helps to stimulate lymphatic flow, reduce cellulite and improve overall tone and health of your skin.

By adding some essential oils you will up the skin benefits even further and ...add a hearty dose of mood-improving aromatherapy... Himalayan Salt Scrub Ingredients: *1 Cup finely ground Himalayan Salt *1 Tablespoon Coconut Oil *2 Tablespoons Sweet Almond Oil *20 Drops PPW Grapefruit Essential Oil *2 Drops PPW Peppermint Essential Oil *Glass Jar of your liking (Note: You can substitute different essential oils to your liking but be sure to double check that they are safe diluted on skin - VK recommends any combination Lavender, Orange, Lemon, Ylang-Ylang, Frankincense, Rose, Lime, Bergamot or Germanium) Instructions: 1. In a small glass bowl add the coconut oil, essential oils, and sweet almond oil. Mash it all together with a fork or rubber spatula 2. Add the Himalayan salt and continue mixing 3. Store your Himalayan salt scrub in a glass jar. To use, rub all over your body to gently cleanse and exfoliate, then rinse off *Note: Since this product is made with oil, be careful when using it in the shower as it can make the bathtub slippery All these simple ingredients are available at Vitamin King and from now until December 13th all Pure Potent Wow (PPW) essential oils are 10% off! Enjoy....and have fun creating
