VITAPOPS


VITAPOPS HOLDS WACKY SCIENCE FAIR:
A FUN AND EXCITING WAY TO LEARN AND BE HEALTHY!



Have you wondered how kids these days think and behave? They like doing things that are very fun and enjoyable. Unfortunately, these may not necessarily be good for them. Take for example, the food that they take. Kids love eating junk food, sweets, etc- food that do not provide the right nutrients to keep them in good health. The challenge for most moms is how to get their kids to take products that are healthy for them.

This is why Unilab, the country’s leading healthcare provider, has come up with an innovative product that strikes the perfect balance between having fun and being healthy. From the makers of Ceelin comes VitaPops, the first & only pop rocks Vitamin C for kids that fizzles inside the mouth, which makes taking vitamins an experience that kids look forward to!


“We, at Unilab, are excited to introduce this vitamin that will definitely make taking Vitamin C a fun, memorable experience. VitaPops is the first & only pop rocks Vitamin C in the country,” shared VitaPops Product Manager Joseph Aruta. “Aside from its unique format, VitaPops comes in a single-dose sachet making it more convenient for moms and kids to bring around, has 1/5 the sugar content compared to your regular vitamins and is formulated with Sodium Ascorbate making it tummy-friendly. With VitaPops, we hope to give moms & kids a healthy yet fun compromise.

To bring the experience to life, Unilab brought a one of a kind opportunity for kids to learn while having fun through the VitaPops Wacky Science Fair! Held at SM Mall of Asia Music Hall, the Wacky Science Fair let kids enjoy perform various science experiments that are both educational and fun. They were able to experience a variety of activities ranging from arts & crafts to the Vitapops Dash, which involved multiple physical and mental challenges. They were also entertained by the side performances of clowns, magicians, unicyclists, stilt walkers, bubble maker, ventriloquist and they also had the chance to win amazing prizes as well!

The VitaPops Wacky Science Fair was hosted by Rikka Dylim, a well-respected public relations personality in the entertainment industry. Daphne Osena-Paez, a TV host and personality, was the event’s guest, as she shared her kids’ experience on VitaPops. She also talked about modern parenting tips and how she manages to take care of her kids in fun way despite her busy schedule.

Jenee Virtudazo, a Registered Nurse & Dietician, shared why it’s important for kids to constantly take Vitamin C supplements.


Ensuring 100% protection from sickness:
“Today, due to food handling and processing and cooking, the Vitamin C content in milk, fruits and vegetables is significantly reduced. These foods may not be enough to attain one’s recommended daily intake of Vitamin C, especially in children. Moms should ensure full Vitamin C protection to keep kids always healthy and free of any sickness so they can accomplish a lot of things and enjoy more time with their family and friends,” explained Ms. Virtudazo. “In addition, kids are usually exposed to high levels of sugar because they are easily drawn to sweets and candies so it’s important for the parents to manage their children’s sugar intake and provide them with a healthy balance of food and nutrients.”

There are a lot of children’s Vitamin C available in the market today and choosing the right one can get confusing for moms. It’s important to remember that children’s opinion when choosing a vitamin brand is essential. If the kids like their vitamins then moms will not have a hard time getting them to take it.

VitaPops: Mom-Approved
Daphne was introduced as the official VitaPops Mom because she embodies what the brand advocates-- seriously fun goodness – when it comes to parenting and in the products she chooses when taking care of their kids. Daphne is a fun mom who prioritizes her kids’ health and considers what they will enjoy. She knows how to strike the balance between fun and healthy.

“I like giving VitaPops to my children but what’s more amazing is how my kids love it! They immediately liked it the moment they first tried it. They like it so much that they immediately told their friends about it,” shared Daphne.
