Vitamin Relief USA, (a national initiative of the Healthy Foundation), currently provides almost 20,000 at-risk children, teens, seniors and adults with daily multiple vitamins. Their annual survey reports confirms that these daily vitamins are helping children perform better at school, be sick less often, and have greater self-esteem. Seniors report having more energy, less pain and need less medication.

The news of these dramatic improvements in health has gained the attention of Congressman Istook (R-OK) who has requested that Congress provide $4 million dollars to The Healthy Foundation/Vitamin Relief USA from the 2005 fiscal budget: $2 million to provide daily vitamins to 60,000 at-risk children through Vitamin Relief USA Children First program and $2 million to study the impact of daily multi-vitamins on seniors and their quality of life.
