Qwellcor International Limited is a leading provider of quality pharmaceutical and neutraceutical products which enhances the health and well being of individuals.

We believe that Nutrition/Health and Educational Development are critical if the youth of Trinidad and Tobago are to progress physically and intellectually.

Unfortunately the link between optimum nutrition and educational development is not prioritized in Trinidad and Tobago and there is a lack of information and options available to busy parents to support them in maximizing the potential of their children in school life.

Consequently Qwellcor International Limited has launched across the country, The Astymin Smart Kid Initiative as an integral part of our community and social responsibility to the children and families of Trinidad and Tobago.

What is the Astymin Smart Kids Initiative?

This Programme is aimed at partnering with schools to assist students in their intellectual development and preparation for examinations and throughout the school year by raising awareness of the importance and the improvements in school performance that an increase in the nutritional status of children can provide.

Astymin Forte  is one of our key nutritional supplements which is safe for vegetarians and which is a key part of a good nutritional start for children into adulthood.

The Astymin Smart Kids Initiative is aimed at encouraging both Primary and Secondary school students to strive for academic and athletic excellence by improving their nutritional status through the intake of:

  • healthy meals supplemented with multivitamins and other nutrients (as contained in Astymin) and
  • through the provision of education about nutrition and healthy options as well as
  • information  on study tips and tools and much more to parents.

Students will be nominated by their schools to participate in the Astymin Smart Kids Activities and the brightest and the best as well as the most improved students, depending on the Programme/Activity involved, will be rewarded with:

  • cash incentives,
  • trophies,
  • medals,
  • T-shirts and tokens

Students and schools will be required to participate in Initiatives which may include:

  • essay competitions,
  • art competitions,
  • social media competitions etc.

Winners will be awarded prizes that benefit the student and highest performing schools will be awarded a trophy as well.

In launching The Astymin Smart Kids Initiative we request your support in the following:

  • Agreement for your child to participate in this initiative when their school is participating.
  • Engagement of you as parents through presentations at your PTA meetings. Topics for the PTA meetings would include education on the importance of early nutrition for healthy growth and development of children, including the importance of a healthy nutrient dense breakfast, supplementation of vitamins and amino acids from vegetarian sources to demonstrate how amino acid supplementation is critical to memory and concentration for children.
  • Permitting us to demonstrate how Astymin is as an integral part of a child’s daily nutritional programme by acceptance and use of the provision of samples to your child when their school participates in one of the activities.
  • Approval to participate in your school based activities as appropriate, where we can set up a booth at school events like orientation, sports day, etc. to conduct lectures and provide samples to educate and bring awareness of this important country wide initiative.

We look forward to your support in this exciting and educational program that will be of benefit to the children of Trinidad and Tobago.We value the children of Trinidad and Tobago and look forward to partnering with you as parents in their educational journey with Astymin and the Astymin Smart Kids Initiative.
