i'm nutrients is an Australian-owned children's supplement brand. It began in 2017 in founder Brittany Darling's kitchen, after she couldn't find children's supplements that met the standard she wanted for her own kids so she made them. 

Today we're a small team of 95% working mums. More than 1 million bottles have gone out to families worldwide, and our range is used by over 600 prescribing practitioners. Every product is made in Australia, and Australian orders ship from our Sydney warehouse. We also have a warehouse in San Diego, US. 

Yes. Every product in the range is made in Australia, in facilities licensed by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) and operating under Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) the same manufacturing standard applied to pharmaceutical products.

Some individual raw materials are sourced from overseas where that's genuinely where the best quality comes from. For example our DHA is sourced from marine algae found in the oceans of Norway, the same source many fish get their omega-3s from in the first place. The formulating, blending, tableting and packing all happen here in Australia.

Yes. Our core range is listed on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) as AUST L listed medicines, and each product carries its own AUST L number printed on the label and shown on its product page.

Within our range, our food products are designed to help fill everyday nutritional gaps. Our listed medicines exist for a different purpose they let us set targeted, age-specific doses and make defined health claims, which means going through the TGA's listed medicine process rather than the food framework.

ALWAYS READ THE LABEL AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE.

Yes. Every batch is tested for identity and quality before release, and on top of that we commission independent third-party laboratory testing of finished product.

Finished-product gluten testing is the clearest example: so many of our families are managing coeliac disease that a "no gluten-containing ingredients" statement didn't feel like enough, so we paid for the lab work. We're happy to share those third-party reports email support@imnutrients.com and tell us which product you'd like results for. If you need a Certificate of Analysis for a specific batch, we can send that too.

Seven things, honestly stated:

• TGA-listed medicines (AUST L)
• Made in Australia, in TGA-licensed facilities under GMP.
• Practitioner-grade nutrient forms at meaningful doses, including activated B vitamins — not the cheapest form at a token amount.
• Formats children will actually take. A supplement a child refuses is no supplement at all; that was the founding insight.
• No artificial colours, no artificial flavours, no artificial sweeteners, no added cane sugar.
• Independent third-party laboratory testing, with results shared on request.
• Trusted on both sides: loved by families, and prescribed by more than 600 practitioners.

Directly from imnutrients.com and through GoVita, Mr Vitamins, Bloom and selected independent pharmacies and practitioners.

Buying direct is the only way to access subscription pricing and our support team.

We ship from two warehouses. Our Sydney warehouse looks after Australia, New Zealand and parts of Asia, UK, and Canada. Our San Diego warehouse handles all United States orders. 

If an item is available for preorder, please check product description for ETA of delivery. Preorders generally open 2 weeks prior to a product launch or restock of a new batch. 

We pack 14 hours of the day from our Sydney based warehouse. We don't muck around on our end. 

We predominately send parcels via Australia Post because it is a carbon neural service. Delivery time frames differ based on regular or express services and your locations. Please see below estimates. If your parcel hasn't arrive within the expected time frame, please check your porch, mailbox or local post office, then follow up Australia Post or feel free to email us for help.

Unfortunately sometimes items go out of stock. We do try to keep enough stock for our subscription customers, so if you never want to run out, please consider a subscription. If you want to stay up to date on out of stock items, please make sure you are on our mailing list to be notified when items are back in stock. 

You'll get an email with a tracking link as soon as your order is dispatched. Australian orders track at auspost.com.au; United States orders go via USPS.

If you can't find the email, check your junk and promotions folders first. Still missing? Email us support@imnutrients.com and we'll resend it. If you checked out without an email address, we can add one to your profile so future orders notify you automatically.

Start with the obvious places — neighbours, the building post room, behind a gate or planter. Australia Post sometimes leaves a collection notice and holds the parcel at your local post office, so it's worth checking there too.

If you still can't locate it, please contact Australia Post for guidance (sometimes the driver takes a photograph which might help you locate it). If no luck, please email us support@imnutrients.com with your order number and we'll investigate with the carrier. Where a parcel is genuinely lost in transit, we send a replacement.

Tracking sometimes pauses mid-transit, particularly for rural and international deliveries. If your estimated delivery window has passed, please contact Australia Post for guidance. If no luck, please email us support@imnutrients.com with your order number and we'll investigate with the carrier. 

Where a parcel is genuinely lost in transit, we send a replacement. 

Yes. New Zealand, parts of Asia, Canada and the UK ship from Sydney; the United States ships from San Diego. Available options and timeframes show at checkout for your address.

International customers who need a tax or customs invoice with full business details — a VAT invoice for Europe, for example — should email support@imnutrients.com and we'll prepare one. The order confirmation alone often isn't enough for customs.

Pick your product, choose how often you'd like it delivered, and we send it automatically. You'll get a reminder email before each delivery, so nothing arrives as a surprise.

When you sign up for a subscription, you are notified via email. If you do not receive this, please check you spam or promotions folder and label and 'not spam' so you can stay up to date with your next order.

Subscription orders include a standing discount, and you can manage everything yourself pause, skip, swap products, change frequency, update your address or card from your customer account.

Yes, and there's no fee for either. Log in to your account, or use the magic link we can email straight to your inbox, and choose pause or skip.

Pausing means nothing is charged and nothing ships until you resume. Skipping moves you past one cycle and resumes automatically after that.

Please note: this must happen before your next order is processed. Our warehouse works very quickly, once your order has been packed we can't hold or cancel orders. 

You can cancel any time from your account (see the manage subscription link in website footer), or email support@imnutrients.com and we'll do it for you. 

We need 24 hours' notice before your next billing date, you'll have received a reminder email 24 hours beforehand, which is your window to make changes.

It happens, and it's an easy fix email us at support@imnutrients.com and we'll stop it. 

Cancelling or pausing only affects future orders. Your first order still comes as normal.

No, and there's a real reason behind it. As a children's supplement brand we work under TGA requirements governing the handling and distribution of therapeutic goods, and once a product leaves our facility we have no way to verify how it's been stored or whether the seal is intact.

These products are for little ones, so we hold ourselves to a higher standard than we're strictly required to. It's not something we make exceptions on including for change of mind, taste preference, or an order placed by mistake.

Email us a photo of the damaged product and its packaging, along with your order number, and we'll organise a replacement straight away. Replacements go out from the nearest warehouse within 1 to 2 business days and you'll get a fresh tracking link.

We ask for a photo because it lets us fix it immediately rather than sending it back and forth, and it helps us pin down whether the problem is packaging or handling.

Email support@imnutrients.com for assistance. 

If this has been our error, we are always happy to correct it. Send us a photo of what arrived plus your order number and we'll get the correct item out to you as quickly as we can. 

Email support@imnutrients.com

Get in touch immediately and we'll try. Our warehouse team moves quickly, so if the order hasn't been picked we can usually stop or edit it once it's packed, we can't.

If we're able to stop an unfulfilled order, a cancellation fee of $10 AUD applies to cover warehouse handling, and the balance returns to your original payment method. Once an order has been dispatched we're not able to recall it.

Email support@imnutrients.com

Email us straight away. If it hasn't shipped we'll try to swap or stop it. If it has already gone, we can't take it back but it's worth checking with us first.

The most common version of this is a parent worried Calm Mind is 12+ when it's actually formulated for children 6 years and over.

ALWAYS READ THE LABEL AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE.

Each product has its own age recommendation, printed on the label and shown on the product page.

Age recommendations exist because the serving size and ingredient levels are matched to a developmental stage — they're not a formality. If your child is younger than the recommendation, please don't split doses to make it work; email us and we'll point you to something appropriate.

Email support@imnutrients.com

Calm Mind is formulated for children 6 years and over. The published research specifically on saffron was conducted in children aged 12 and over, which is why 12 years appears in some of the label wording — but the formulation as a whole is designed for kids from 6.

So if you've bought Calm Mind for a 6-, 8- or 10-year-old, you're in the right place. This is one of the most common questions we get, usually from a parent worried they've ordered the wrong thing.

Calm Mind helps support nervous system health in children 6+ years. ALWAYS READ THE LABEL AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE. If symptoms persist, talk to your health professional.

Yes — the range is designed to work together and most of our families combine two or three. Two practical notes:

• Iron and zinc compete for absorption, so space Iron Immunity away from Fussy Essentials or Elderberry Immune. One in the morning and one in the evening works well.
• Dairy also reduces iron absorption. Where you can, allow around two hours between Iron Immunity and a large serve of dairy.

Follow the directions on each label, and if your child takes prescription medication or has an existing health condition, check the combination with your GP or paediatrician first. We can email you a dosing guide covering the full range — just ask.

Fussy Essentials and Elderberry Immune together, at the recommended one-a-day serve of each, provide approximately 5 mg of zinc in total.

For context, the recommended dietary intake for zinc varies with age — around 3 mg for a two-year-old, with an upper level of about 7 mg — so 5 mg sits inside that range. Whether it's right for your particular child, at their age and weight, is a question for your healthcare professional.

There's no upper age limit. Teenagers do well on the range, and plenty of parents take them alongside their kids.

The doses are formulated for children, so an adult may find them light — but there's nothing about the formulations that makes them children-only. We now have an adult friendly version of our Calm formulation called calm mind + 

Fussy Essentials. It's a children's multivitamin formulated to support nutrient levels in the body when dietary intake is inadequate — built for the reality of a child who eats beige food and negotiates over vegetables.

It's a chewable tablet for children 2 years and over, and it's designed to be taken alongside the rest of the range if you need more targeted support as well.

ALWAYS READ THE LABEL AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE.

We don't offer sample or trial sizes. Our 30-tablet pack is the smallest size we make, and it's what most families use to trial a product.

We know that's still a leap when you're not certain your child will take it. If taste or texture is the thing holding you back, email us before you order — we'll tell you honestly what's worked for other families with the same concern.

Yes. A capsule version of Calm Mind is now available and is completely flavour-free — a good option for children who are sensitive to sweetness or texture, or who simply prefer to swallow something and be done.

Pierce it. Use a clean pin or the tip of a knife to break the soft gel, then squeeze the oil onto a spoon, into yoghurt, a smoothie, porridge, or any food with a bit of flavour to it. The DHA works exactly the same way.

This is our most-used tip and it solves the problem for the vast majority of families. The oil has a mild taste that disappears into most foods — something with a stronger flavour of its own works best.

You're in very good company, and there are a few things that reliably help:

• Crush or grind a chewable into a spoon of yoghurt, a smoothie, or porridge — it disguises the flavour well.
• For Brain DHA, pierce the soft gel and mix the oil into something strongly flavoured.
• Offer it at the same moment every day, such as with breakfast, so it becomes routine rather than a nightly negotiation.
• Tell them why. Kids engage far better when it's linked to something they care about — energy to keep playing, not missing out on things, feeling calmer at school, or a tummy that behaves.

Let us know how you go and we'll suggest a few more if those don't land.

It varies by product and by child. Some families notice a shift within a couple of weeks; for others it builds over a couple of months, and some children respond less noticeably than others.

Consistency matters more than anything else. Nutritional support works best taken daily as directed over time, rather than as needed on hard days. If you've been consistent for a month and nothing's shifted, email us — we'd rather help you work out whether a different product or approach suits than have you keep going with something that isn't right.

Email support@imnutrients.com

ALWAYS READ THE LABEL AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE.

No, and we'd rather say so plainly than let you find out later. Every child responds differently and we won't promise an outcome we can't control.

What we do stand behind is anything that's our fault. If a product arrives damaged, if we send the wrong item, or if there's a genuine fault with the product, we'll replace it or return your money to your original payment method.

What we can't do is take a product back because a child didn't like the taste or because you changed your mind. Once a children's supplement has left our warehouse we have no way to verify how it's been stored or whether the seal is intact, and we won't put another family's child at risk by putting it back into stock. If it isn't working out, tell us — we'll help you work out whether a different product or a different way of giving it would suit better.

Almost always, no. Our chewables darken when exposed to moisture, heat or air, and the most common cause is being decanted into a pill box or left with the lid loose.

Keep them in the original bottle with the desiccant, in a cool, dark, dry cupboard.
Elderberry Immune gummies also look different since our December 2025 formulation update. That's the new formula, not a problem with the batch.

If something still looks wrong to you, send us a photo and the batch number and we'll check it against our retention samples.

Store them in the original bottle, lid firmly closed, in a cool, dark, dry place away from heat and direct sunlight. A cupboard is ideal; a sunny windowsill or a car glovebox is not.

Our products carry a two-year shelf life from the date of manufacture, and we rotate stock so you receive the freshest available — current stock typically has 12 to 18 months remaining. The expiry date and batch number are printed on every bottle.

None of our products contain added gluten-containing ingredients, and we've gone a step further: we commissioned independent third-party laboratory gluten testing on finished product, specifically because so many of our families manage coeliac disease.

Email support@imnutrients.com with the product you're considering and we'll send you the lab results. If your child has a coeliac diagnosis, we'd still suggest sharing those results with your GP or dietitian so the call is made with their input.

Brain DHA contains soy. Calm Mind, Fussy Essentials, Party Pooper, Elderberry Immune and Iron Immunity are soy free.

Any product containing soy shows it in the warnings section of its product page. If soy is a serious allergy in your family, email us before you order and we'll go through the specific product with you.

It varies by product, and the full ingredient and allergen breakdown is on every product page. 

Iron Immunity contains lactoferrin, which is milk-derived, therefore this product is not dairy free. 

If your child has a milk allergy, email us the product you're considering before ordering and we'll confirm its allergen status for you in writing.

None of our formulations contain added tree nuts, peanuts, or sesame, as ingredients.

Because we manufacture in shared facilities we can't rule out trace cross-contamination. For a child with a serious allergy, email us first — we'll go through the specific product and share the allergen documentation we hold from the manufacturer.

There's no added cane sugar anywhere in the range. We sweeten with a combination of monk fruit (Siraitia grosvenorii) and steviol glycosides, and some products also contain sugar alcohols such as sorbitol, xylitol or isomalt, which help form the chewable base.

Sugar alcohols aren't absorbed the way sugar is. In large quantities they can be unsettling for some tummies, but one serve a day sits comfortably within normal use. Every sweetener is named in full on the product page.

No. Our flavours are natural — watermelon in Calm Mind, tropical in Iron Immunity, blueberry in Brain DHA, mixed berry in Elderberry Immune — and we don't use artificial colours or artificial sweeteners.

It varies by product. Calm Mind, Fussy Essentials, Elderberry Immune and Party Pooper are all free from animal-derived ingredients.

Brain DHA is not suitable for vegans or vegetarians. While the DHA is sourced from marine algae rather than fish, the chewable soft gel capsule contains bovine gelatine.

Simple Scoop Vanilla is suitable for vegans and vegetarians, while Simple Scoop Chocolate contains organic beef liver and is therefore not suitable for vegans or vegetarians.

The Brain DHA chewable soft gel capsule is made with bovine gelatine — derived from cattle, not pork. Families avoiding pork-derived gelatine are generally comfortable with it.

We're happy to share the manufacturer's documentation so you can check it against your own requirements.

No. Our DHA is sustainably grown from marine algae — which is where fish get their DHA in the first place. There's no fish, no fish oil, and no fishy aftertaste, which makes it a good option for families avoiding fish or managing a fish allergy.

Iron Immunity is free from sulfites. We don't currently have a sulfite-free option across the whole range.

Email us the product you're considering and we'll confirm, and we'd suggest checking with your child's allergist or GP as well.

Calm Mind contains 500 micrograms — that's 0.5 mg — of vitamin B6.

We're aware of the media coverage about B6 in supplements, and it's a concern we've shared for years. It's exactly why the dose was deliberately kept low. 500 micrograms sits well below the Australian recommended dietary intake for children, and well below the levels discussed in those reports or in the TGA's proposed scheduling thresholds.

If you'd like to work out your child's total B6 intake across everything they take, that's a good conversation to have with your healthcare professional.

Calm Mind helps support nervous system health in children 6+ years. ALWAYS READ THE LABEL AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS FOR USE. If symptoms persist, talk to your health professional.

Yes. Please send us an email - support@imnutrients.com and we would be happy to share the full list.
