Description
Omega-3 fatty acids are found in oily fish such as herring‚ trout‚ salmon‚ sardines‚ and mackerel. There are three types of fatty acids that make up the family known as omega-3s: DHA (docosahexaenoic acid)‚ ALA (alpha-linolenic acid)‚ and EPA (eicosapentaenoic). These are essential fatty acids that your body can’t produce on its own.
Omega-3s are a vital source of nutrients that are believed to play a huge role in maintaining a healthy cardiovascular system. In addition‚ they may boost brain functioning‚ growth‚ and development. You may be deficient in omega-3 fatty acids if you experience symptoms like tiredness‚ poor circulation‚ dry skin‚ mood swings‚ and sadness. Children who fail to get enough omega-3s in their diet may be at increased risk of vision problems and nerve disorders. Omega-3s may also reduce swelling and inflammation‚ while helping your skin look better.
Since your body doesn't make its own omega-3s‚ you must get them from dietary sources. Sicne kids are notoriously fussy eaters‚ it can be difficult to get enough omega-3s into their diet from fish alone. Supplementing their diet with Nordic Naturals’ Nordic Omega-3 Fishies is a convenient way to provide EPA‚ DHA‚ and ALA. These chewable gummies are easy to digest for children ages two and older‚ and the fun fish shapes and tangerine taste make them even better!
Each bright-orange Nordic Omega-3 Fishies gummy contains purified fish oil from anchovies and sardines‚ in addition to organic tapioca syrup as a sweetener made from tapioca starch. This bottle of Nordic Omega-3 Fishies by Nordic Naturals contains 30 fish-shaped gummies‚ which should last for about one month if your child eats one gummy daily as recommended.
Nordic Naturals strives to provide high-quality fish oils sourced from Norwegian Arctic waters‚ along with other supplements essential to life. All Nordic Naturals products surpass international pharmaceutical standards and are pure‚ fresh‚ and tasty. Research-based innovation is a priority for Nordic Naturals‚ and its efficient and potent products are often used in major clinical studies.
