Petit CN Base

The Basic Micronutrition

A balanced combination of vitamins, minerals, choline, scFOS and S.boulardii. Indicated for children, as well as during pregnancy and breastfeeding

It is especially important to maintain adequate and balanced micronutrient levels during pregnancy, breastfeeding and in growing children.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding: there is an increased need for nutrients during the nine months of pregnancy and the breastfeeding period. Supplemental intake of L-methylfolate (folate/folic acid) increases maternal folate levels, helping to reduce the risk of neural tube defects such as spina bifida. The beneficial effect is achieved with a daily folic acid intake of 400 µg, at least one month before conception and up to three months after conception.

In children and adolescents (from 3 to 17 years of age): during this period of growth, children should have balanced intake of all nutrients and micronutrients: calcium, iodine, iron and vitamin D3 are of vital importance.

Petit CN Base is a balanced combination of the 23 most important micronutrients for optimal development, together with fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) and S. boulardii.

Petit CN Base is a dietary supplement composed of the following nutrients:

Benefits

Petit CN Base’s formula is suitable for ingestion during pregnancy, breastfeeding and during children’s growth and development.

Petit CN Base’s nutrient forms, together with the adequate amount of each, contribute to:

  • Normal bone growth and development (1,4).
  • Normal cognitive development of children (2,3).
  • Normal functioning of the immune system in children (4).

The above claims have been evaluated by EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) and authorized by the European Commission.

Petit CN Base supplies:

  • Vitamins in “active form.”
  • Minerals in their most bioavailable form.
  • Fiber, supplying an effective amount of short-chain fructo-oligosaccharides (3g/packet).
  • S.boulardii, which supports the functions of all other micronutrients and helps ensure better intestinal absorption.

Petit CN Base contains a combination of basic nutrients, such as L-methylfolate (folate/folic acid), and in their most active form. Supplemental intake increases maternal folate levels, helping to reduce the risk of neural tube defects such as spina bifida. The beneficial effect is achieved with a daily folic acid (L-methylfolate) intake of 400 μg for at least one month before conception and up to three months after conception (5).

Dosage

  • Children from 3 to 8 years of age: 1 packet a day.
  • Children and adolescents from 9 to 17 years of age: 1 or 2 packets a day.
  • Pregnant women: 2 packets a day during the first trimester and 1 or 2 sachets a day for the rest of the pregnancy.
  • Breastfeeding women: 1 or 2 packets a day.
  • Or the dosage indicated by a health care professional.

Warnings with Petit CN Base:

In some children and adults, Petit CN Base can intensify the yellow color of urine (due to the vitamin B2 that has this color).  This effect is harmless.

In the first few days, some individuals may experience bloating and gas in the intestines due to the fiber (scFOS) and its utilization by the body’s beneficial flora. These symptoms are temporary and disappear with continued intake after 5-7 days, once the bowel adapts.

Natural products and foods can also cause intolerance in individuals who are sensitive to some of their components.

As with any other product, Petit CN Base should not be taken or administered if you are allergic or intolerant to any of its components.

Petit CN Base does not need to be refrigerated. However, it is preferable to store it in a cool, dry place to avoid abrupt temperature changes.

As with any dietary supplement, keep Petit CN Base out of reach and sight of small children.
