The Rising Number of Overweight Children Fuels Children's Nutritional Market Says Jody Victor of IBOAI

    /24-7PressRelease/ - July 19, 2006 - The record breaking increase in the number of overweight children has caused parents to become more concerned with what their kids are eating and drinking. "Our members, Quixtar Independent Business Owners offer a wide array of nutritional products for children from vitamins and supplements to snacks and drinks," says Jody Victor of the Independent Business Owners Association International (www.IBOAI.com).

"Powered by Quixtar, the leading online health and beauty retailer, our members market outstanding nutritional products such as NUTRILITE Kids vitamins and supplements and new SEISMIC juice drinks and snacks," says Billy Florence.

"The Centers for Disease Control report that less than 25 percent of young people eat the recommended five or more servings of fruits and vegetables each day," notes Victor. "Kids love the taste of NUTRILITE Kids Concentrated Fruits and Vegetables and NUTRILITE Fruji Bars. Parents love that these NUTRILITE products provide more than five servings of fruit and vegetable phytonutrients."

"NUTRILITE Kids Braniums DHA has all the benefits of DHA from fish, with fun gummy shapes and sweet lemon flavor," adds Billy Florence.

"New SEISMIC Super Juice is a delicious, nutritious way to give kids the fuel they need," says Jody Victor. "It's 100 percent juice with no added artificial colors, or flavors and it has the added benefit of fiber and antioxidants."

"The nutritional content of SEISMIC Super Juice appeals to parents while the great taste is just what the kids ordered," remarks Florence.

"All these great children's nutritional products and more are available in the United States and Canada exclusively from our trade association members, Quixtar Independent Business Owners in the United States and Canada," says Jody Victor.
