How Does NSI® Omega Fishies for Kids work?
NSI® Omega Fishies for Kids is an easy-to-take, fruit flavored chewable supplement that provides 200 mg of docosahexaeonic acid (DHA) per each two-softgel serving.
DHA is an omega-3 essential fatty acid that’s crucial to optimal brain and visual development throughout infancy and childhood. Naturally found in tissues throughout the body, DHA is a major structural component of cell membranes in the brain and retina of the eye. It’s especially concentrated in the area of the brain responsible for learning, memory and other complex thinking skills, and is a crucial component in the proper function of nerve cells in the eyes.
During the first few years of life, the brain undergoes a rapid growth spurt, significantly increasing in mass and DHA content. Between birth and age five, the brain increases approximately 3.5 times in mass, with DHA content increasing up to 450%. To support this period of growth, it’s important that children consume adequate amounts of DHA to ensure that cells in the brain, retina, heart and other parts of the nervous system develop and function properly.
DHA is also a key component of the heart and is recommended by the American Heart Association as one of the omega-3 essential fatty acids that helps support cardiovascular health. DHA may help children maintain healthy cholesterol levels, blood pressure levels and overall blood vessel function.
DHA can be obtained from food sources such as oily fish, organ meats and marine algae. Unfortunately, most children do not regularly consume these foods. Parents may also be reluctant to provide children with DHA-rich fresh fish due to potentially harmful levels of mercury and other contaminants. It’s estimated that up to 90% of children do not consume sufficient amounts of omega-3 fatty acids in their daily diets.
NSI® Omega Fishies for Kids is an easy, ideal way to supplement your child’s diet with DHA. Naturally fruit flavored, kids will enjoy taking two fish-shaped softgels daily. They’ll receive 200 mg of DHA and 48 mg of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid—another health-promoting omega-3 fatty acid) per serving.
NSI® Omega Fishies for Kids features BioPureDHA™, a premium tuna oil sourced from an exclusive fish supply, isolated from traditional fishing areas in zones that are non-industrial (and therefore have fewer pollutants). BioPure™ DHA is manufactured using a proprietary cold-extraction process that creates naturally pure, DHA-rich fish oil. It undergoes special processing to produce mild, deodorized oil that retains a high DHA content.
NSI® Omega Fishies for Kids is better because it:
• Provides an ideal 200 mg of pure, potent omega-3 DHA per each two-softgel serving.
• Is a great value! One bottle supplies 60 servings—enough to supplement your child’s diet with an optimal amount of DHA for two months.
