A high-DHA formula in a yummy lemon blueberry chewable softgel. Sourced from small, sustainable fish, our omega-3 also contains DHA and EPA with added Vitamin D3.
Delicious chewable omega-3s with added vitamin D3. Formulated for children to help support the development and health of brain, eyes, teeth, and bones.
DHA is an essential fatty acid needed for the growth and development of the brain and retinas. Adequate intake during pregnancy and early life helps to support proper cognition and eyesight.
Because EPA and DHA are in so few foods that children naturally gravitate towards, it can be hard for children to get adequate amounts from diet alone, especially for picky eaters. Taking Omega-3 chewable soft gels helps to ensure your growing child is getting their needs met.
The omega-3s in the chewables are sourced from small, sustainable fish. Smaller fish with a short lifecycle do not contain high mercury levels like bigger fish do. Every batch is tested for heavy metals.
Vitamin D3 is needed for the development of bones, teeth, and muscle. Vitamin D3 also plays an important role in immune and heart health.
There are three main types of omega-3 fatty acids: alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). ALA is the most common, found in nuts, seeds, and nut/seed oil. DHA and EPA are found in fatty fish and some algae. While small amounts of ALA can be converted to DHA/EPA, the body is not able to convert the required amounts, so food sources or supplements are necessary.
DHA is an extremely important nutrient for developing the brain and eyes in fetuses and children. While EPA plays an important role in protecting cells from inflammation.
