From the beginning of the school year and throughout the whole process of intensive training and visits to preschools, child's body experiences stress and lack of vitamins compounded by the implications of autumn, winter and spring seasons. During these periods children are especially in need of a balanced consumption of essential trace elements and vitamins necessary for the development of the growing organism and normalization of the brain function. Hypovitaminosis contributes to detraction and decreased physical activity which lead to low learning outcomes and misconduct.
