The child’s psycho-motor development is most intensive and dynamic and you, as parents, ask yourselves what you can do to best support your child in these processes.

As a standard, it is essential to provide the child with the fundamental conditions for growth and development, such as a warm home, clean drinking water, clean environment, physical activity, attention and care…..and, of course, proper and well-balanced nutrition which includes omega-3 fatty acids.

What is the role of omega-3 fatty acids?

Omega-3 fatty acids play an important role in the normal functioning of metabolism. Most important is docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which intensely accumulates in the brain tissue of children, even in their early development in the mother’s womb, but also later, during childhood. DHA is essential for maintaining the brain function and vision.

Does omega-3 intake through food meet your children’s requirements?

One of the challenges modern parents face is provision of sufficient quantities of omega-3 fatty acids in their children’s diet.

Namely, the main source of omega-3 fatty acids is the oily fish, but considering the availability of quality fish and the local, traditional diet, it is quite understandable that you ask yourself this question.

What is the benefit of using food supplements that contain omega-3?

Nowadays, there is a variety of food supplements based on omega-3 fatty acids, which can be used to enrich your child’s nutrition.

It is good to know that there are scientifically determined standards about the daily intake of omega-3 fatty acids, especially DHA, as regards child’s development. Hence, your product of choice should be formulated according to these standards.

What are the additional challenges related to the food supplements based on omega-3 fatty acids?

The benefit of using food supplements which contain omega-3 fatty acids is obvious, but these products commonly have a specific taste and smell of fish, which the children find repulsive. That is why when choosing a product based on omega-3 fatty acids, besides the good quality, it is important to choose a tasty one for your sweetest, to their and everyone’s delight.
