Dr. Ray Strand's recommendations for children's dosages of USANA's nutritional supplements:

Nutritional Recommendations for Children
Usana Health Sciences has the best nutritional support for all ages. I will
detail my recommendations for cellular nutrition and for each Optimizer
according to age and weight.

Cellular Nutrition for Children:
Children ages 1 to 4 years of age:
I recommend giving these children 1 Usanimal daily. This may mean crushing
the tablet and putting in a drink or sprinkling it on something. It is important
to also consider giving these children 1 tsp of OptOmega daily.

Children ages 5 to 8 years of age:
I recommend giving these children 1 Usanimal twice daily. I also recommend
that they be taking 1 tsp of OptOmega and 1 Active Calcium tablet (or Active
Calcium Chewable) daily.

Children ages 9 to 12:
I recommend giving these children 1 to 2 Body Rox daily depending on the
weight of the child. If they are over 75 pounds, I generally recommend that
they should be taking 2 Body Rox daily. In this age group, I also recommend
that they take 2 tsps of OptOmega and 2 Active Calcium tablets or Chewable
tablets daily.

Children ages 13 to 18:
I recommend that these children take 3 Body Rox daily along with 3 to 4 Active
Calcium tablets or Chewable Active Calcium tablets. They should also be
taking 2 tsps of OptOmega or 3 to 2 Biomega. Any adolescent in this age
group who is suffering from a serious illness or weighs more than 120 pounds
should also consider taking the Usana Essentials.

Optimizers:
Proflavanol:
I recommend giving children 1 to 2 mg of Proflavanol per pound per day (this
is 3 to 5 mg per kilogram) in at least two divided doses. The smaller Proflavanol
tablet has 30 mg of Proflavanol in each tablet (the Proflavanol 90 has 90mg in
each tablet). I have no hesitation in using Proflavanol in children over 2 years
of age. These tablets may be crushed and placed in a drink or food with no
loss of potency.

Coquinone 30:
I recommend giving children 1 to 2 mg of Coquinone per pound per day (this
is 3 to 5 mg per kilogram) in divided doses. Each Coquinone 30 has 30 mg of
Coquinone. This capsule may be punctured and the contents squirted out
into a drink or food with no loss of potency.

Poly C:
There is a very safe range of using Poly C in children. However, I would only
use 1 daily in children under 6 years of age and 2 to 4 daily in children over
7 years of age depending on the severity of their illness and their weight.

BiOmega:
i recommend giving 1 tsp OptOmega tochildren between the ages of 1 and 8
years old. Children 9 years and older I recommend giving 2 tsps of Optomega.
You can always substitute with BiOmega (1 per tsp recommdation). Squeeze
out into food or drink if needed.
