But he's previously never had trouble walking or anything. He still jumps on chairs and beds, so I'm sure it's not that bad, but I'm just a bit scared over my best friend possibly getting age related problems.

That's really nice to know, I was considering giving my 2 month old some and now I'll know to wait a bit more!
Is there some science behind this?
