Conversation with Dr. Kotake

Parents of growing children want their children to be healthy and are always concerned about ensuring they are getting the nutrients they need for growth. However, for picky eaters, it can be difficult to ensure they get the right balance of nutrients. To solve this problem, we offer a new option: Protein Ramune.

In this blog post, we spoke with Dr. Yaodo Kotake, a cardiologist, about how protein soda can help children's growth and development, and how it can be consumed on a daily basis. Through his extensive medical knowledge and commentary based on his experience, we delve deeper into optimal nutritional supplementation methods for children. Let's explore the potential of protein soda in supporting children's health and growth from an expert's perspective.

1. How does protein drink contribute to child growth and development?

A. Protein Ramune contains many nutrients necessary for growth, and can be used to easily replenish nutrients that are often lacking.

2. What key nutrients are contained in Protein Ramune that are essential for children's health?

A. Protein Ramune can replenish nutrients such as protein, various vitamins, and calcium that are necessary for children's growth. Vitamins, iron, and calcium are especially important for children, and they are prone to deficiencies due to the high recommended amounts, but Protein Ramune can replenish these nutrients.

3. Why would you recommend protein candy to picky eaters?

A. Children can have strong likes and dislikes, which can lead to an imbalance in the nutrients they take in. For example, children who don't like vegetables tend to be deficient in vitamins, but by eating protein candy, they can support their vitamin deficiencies.

4.What kind of children would you recommend Protein Ramune for?

A. Children who are picky eaters or have small appetites may have an unbalanced or insufficient diet. For such children, supplementing their intake with Protein Ramune can help them get more nutrients effectively.

5. What is the best time and method to get my child to eat protein candy?

A. Children's stomachs are small, so they may not be able to get enough nutrition from just three meals a day. It's a good idea to have a protein drink like a snack. Be careful not to eat too much just before a meal, as this can make your child feel full.

6. What are the benefits of choosing Protein Ramune over other supplements that I give my child?

A. One of the advantages of Protein Ramune is that it is a type of Ramune that is easy for children to swallow. It can also be dissolved in water and drunk like a smoothie, making it ideal for children who have difficulty swallowing Ramune.

7. Why do children like the taste of protein ramune?

A. First of all, it is a Ramune type, so it can be consumed easily like a candy. Also, it comes in flavors such as Super Berry and Shikuwasa & Pineapple, so even picky eaters will enjoy it.

8. What is the recommended intake of protein candy for children?

A. For elementary school children, half the adult portion (12.5g) is recommended. For middle school students and older, one adult portion is fine, but half the amount is recommended for smaller children.

9. What advice would you give to a child for the first time?

A. When giving Ramune to children, first be careful not to let them choke. Also, some ingredients, such as soy and apple, can cause allergies, so be careful when giving it to children for the first time.

*Protein Ramune is suitable for children aged 3 and over with a full set of teeth. Consult your doctor if you have allergies or specific nutritional needs.*
