NEW! Omegessential Ultimate Fish Oil for Kids

Written by: Dr. Danielle O’Connor ND 

Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) are a type of fat required by the body to establish and maintain overall well-being. They are called ‘essential’ because the human body is unable to synthesize them – they need to be acquired daily through diet. Omega-3s have been shown to help support cognitive health, brain function, cardiovascular health, and the healthy development of brain, eyes and nerves in children up to 12 years of age.¹ Fortunately, Omegas are today available in a variety of fun formats with kid-friendly tastes like the NEW Ultimate Fish Oil for Kids in Bubble gum flavour.

Omegessentials contains primarily the triglyceride form of EPA and DHA for optimal absorption and assimilation.

There are a lot of Omega-3 supplements for kids on the market today. What makes our formula unique is the quality of our Omega-3 sourcing as well as the addition of important Omega-6 FA’s Linoleic Acid as well as GLA. Progressive Omegessentials Sustainably Sourced™ promise includes:
