Hiya Kids Daily Growth + Protein is the first kids protein powder from the fast-growing children’s health brand, and it promises a craveable Sweet Cream flavor that even picky eaters will enjoy, plus the nutrients growing brains and bodies need.
A recent survey of Hiya’s community found that nearly 64% of parents say that their kids don’t get enough protein, and nearly 76% of kids regularly refuse protein-rich foods. This powdered drink mix, designed to fill the "growth gap," considers kids who may not regularly get enough protein from whole foods like meat or dairy. Formulated with whole-food and organic ingredients, this pediatrician-formulated blend features grass-fed whey, healthy fats, and essential minerals—and no artificial additives, sugar, or empty calories.
