Address chubbiness without hindering growth
Age-related chubbiness is sometimes carried over from a child's toddler years. This is normal, and can be as a result of genetics (mom or dad may also be inclined to have a fuller figure), or it could be as a result of bad eating habits as a teeny tot. These days, children are also inclined to spend more time in front of the TV and less time outdoors, which means that they have less exercise. As a result, some children and preteens may find that they are rounder and more padded than their peers. Some overweight children may be teased at school, or find it difficult to take part in sport and other activities. It has also been found that children who do not maintain a healthy body weight may be more at risk for developing health problems. As important as it is to maintain a healthy weight, it is also important that a young, growing body is supported nutritionally to promote growth of bones, muscle and brain cells. The pre-pubescent body also needs balance to gain the systemic strength needed for the transition into puberty and the teenage years. While a child's waistline may or may not become an issue, being healthy and developing normally for their age is priority. Becoming healthy and ensuring that the body is supported in carrying out its normal duties in various parts of the body, such as the digestive system and stomach, will mean the best chance of stabilizing weight and maintaining it! The natural way Rather than treating problems in isolation, Naturopaths prefer to take a holistic look at the individual and encompass a variety of factors to include diet, lifestyle, personality type, surroundings and emotional elements - thereby supporting the health of the individual as a whole. Natural weight loss supplements for kids are formulated to support all body systems in order to restore balance. Natural remedies have been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years to support the healthy functioning of the metabolism, helping to promote a balanced weight and body type.
In more recent times, research has confirmed this traditional wisdom. There are now many published clinical studies demonstrating the ability of a range of herbs to support the normal functioning of the stomach, liver and digestive system and maintain a healthy metabolism. What is JuniorSlim? JuniorSlim is a weight loss supplement for kids. JuniorSlim is a 100% safe, non-addictive natural herbal remedy formulated by our team of natural health experts for children and preteens. JuniorSlim can especially benefit those overweight children and preteens needing to consistently support routine weight management and a healthy metabolism without compromising growth and health and without serious side effects. JuniorSlim is effectively used as part of a total slimming program to safely support healthy metabolism in overweight children, improve energy levels and systemic harmony in the stomach and digestive system, without harmful side effects and without stimulants. In combination with a healthy lifestyle and balanced diet, JuniorSlim supports the healthy functioning of the digestive system, thereby helping to maintain optimum performance. Vital organs in the body that are instrumental in regulating weight, metabolism and energy expenditure need systemic harmony to function properly. The formula remains true to the whole spectrum method of herbal extraction, ensuring the bio-availability and balance of all the active ingredients contained in the remedy. This method of manufacture also significantly reduces the likelihood of side effects and maintains all active ingredients in perfect balance - exactly as nature intended! How do I use JuniorSlim? DIRECTIONS Children ages 3-12 years: Take 1 drop per age year of the child in approximately 1/4 glass of water or juice two to three times daily before meals. CAUTION Not recommended for children under 12 months of age. Do not deprive your child of healthy food. Consult a dietician or nutritionist for advice if your child has more than age-appropriate baby-fat to decrease. How long until I see results? Results will vary based on a variety of factors such as individual constitution, body type, lifestyle, diet and energy levels. However, if the recommendations are followed on healthy diet and exercise levels, consistent users of JuniorSlim should begin to see results within 3 - 6 weeks. JuniorSlim contains gentle all natural proven herbs in therapeutic dosage. Regular use of JuniorSlim will support healthy metabolism without jeopardizing normal growth. How long will a bottle last? One bottle of JuniorSlim taken regularly will last approximately 30 days depending on the age of the child and frequency of use.

JuniorSlim is a 100% herbal formula that contains the following proven herbs in therapeutic dosage: - Foeniculum vulgare (also known as Fennel) has been used since ancient times to ‘take the edge off' appetite and was traditionally used to avoid 'growling stomachs' during church services! Fennel also supports the health of the liver, kidneys and spleen. The health of these body organs is essential for the breakdown of dietary fat and the elimination of waste products from the body. Furthermore, Foeniculum vulgare is a rich source of beta-carotene and vitamin C, and animal studies have shown its supportive properties for healthy blood sugar levels. (Farag, R, Abu-Raiia, S, and Abdel-Moein, N. "The essential oils of coriander, common dill, and bitter fennel and their effects on diabetic rats." Bull Fac of Agric, Univ of Cairo 1992;43(1):31-44.).
- Mentha piperita (also known as Peppermint) is an herb from the mint family and has been used for many hundreds of years to maintain healthy digestion. It relaxes the muscles of the digestive tract and supports the flow of natural digestive juices and bile, which assist the body to effectively digest and process food.(Taylor BA, Luscombe DK, Duthie HL. "Inhibitory effect of peppermint on gastrointestinal smooth muscle" Gut. 1983;24:A992). Peppermint has also been shown to support healthy digestion by calming the stomach. (Kline RM, Kline JJ, Di Palma J, et al. "Enteric-coated, pH-dependent peppermint oil capsules for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome in children". J Pediatr. 2001;138:125-128).
- Taraxacum officinalis (also known as Dandelion) is an unusually nutritious food. It contains substantial levels of vitamins A, C, D, and B complex as well as iron, magnesium, zinc, potassium, manganese, copper, choline, calcium, boron, and silicon. The bitter principles of dandelion are very good for digestion, including the secretion of salivary and gastric juices. Dandelion also supports the flow of bile, and helps to maintain liver health. (Hook I, McGee A, Henman M, et al. "Evaluation of dandelion for diuretic activity and variation in potassium content". Int J Pharmacog 1993;31(1):29-34). In recent studies, Taraxacum officinalis was shown to have an effect on laboratory animals with respect to body weight. (Racz-Kotilla E, Racz G, Solomon A. "The action of Taraxacum officinale extracts on the body weight and diuresis of laboratory animals." Planta Med 1974;26(3):212-217).
- Astragalus membranaceous is according to tradition, a herb that "strengthens the spleen, blood and Qi, raises the yang Qi of the spleen and stomach, and stabilizes the exterior" and has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for many centuries as a tonic for the endocrine system. Preliminary research suggests that Astragalus membranaceous might be useful in supporting thyroid health, and the endocrine system, as well as healthy metabolism. (Xia SN, Xu ZZ, Zhang ZH, et al. "Hyperthyroidism treated with "yiqiyangyin" decoction". J Tradit Chin Med . 1986;6:79-82.) (Zhang YD, Wang YL, Shen JP, et al. "Effects on blood pressure and inflammation of astragalus saponin 1, a principle isolated from Astragalus membranaceus" BGE Acta PharmSin . 1984;19:333-337). (Zhang H. "Treatment of adult diabetes with jiangtangjia tablets". J Trad Chin Med. 1986;7:37-39).
- Glycorrhiza glabra (also known as Liquorice) originates in the Mediterranean and the Middle East and has many uses, including being a general tonic for the digestive system. A recent human study found that a preparation of licorice may reduce body fat. Fifteen normal-weight subjects consumed licorice for 2 months (3.5 g a day). Body fat mass was measured before and after treatment. Licorice was able to reduce body fat mass (Bernardi M, D'Intino PE, Trevisani F, et al. Effects of prolonged ingestion of graded doses of licorice by healthy volunteers. Life Sci. 1994;55(11):863-872). Another study found that a topical preparation of glycyrrhetinic acid (a component of licorice) was able to reduce the thickness of fat on the thigh in human subjects. (Teelucksingh S, Mackie ADR, Burt D, et al. Potentiation of hydrocortisone activity in skin by glycyrrhetinic acid. Lancet. 1990;335:1060-1063).
- Stachys officinalis (also known as Wood betony) is very useful for the child who may turn to food for comfort. Wood betony can help to support digestive health and metabolism in growing bodies.
- Melissa officinalis (also known as Lemon balm) is well-known for its soothing and calming properties. (Muller SF, Klement S. A combination of valerian and lemon balm is effective in the treatment of restlessness and dyssomnia in children. Phytomedicine. 2006;13(6):383-7). Furthermore, lemon balm has been shown to soothe the stomach in infants with colic. (Savino F, Cresi F, Castagno E, Silvestro L, Oggero R, A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial of a standardized extract of Matricariae recutita, Foeniculum vulgare and Melissa officinalis in the treatment of breastfed colicky infants. Dipartimento di Scienze Pediatriche e dell'Adolescenza-Università di Torino, Ospedale Infantile Regina Margherita, Azienda Ospedaliera OIRM S. ANNA, Piazza Polonia, 94, 10126 Torino, Italy, Wiley InterScience Journal, 10.1002/ptr.1668). Lemon balm also contains substances called tannins, which are thought to support health in the immune system. (Patora J, Klimek B. Flavonoids from lemon balm Melissa officinalis L., Lamiaceae. Acta Pol Pharm. 2002;59(2):139-43).
Note: JuniorSlim contains less than 1% pure pharmaceutical ethanol when diluted as directed.
