These delicious, tutti fruity flavoured, chewable soft-gel capsules have been developed to appeal to the taste buds of smaller, growing children. Their ratio of DHA and EPA essential Omega-3 fatty acids is preferred for growing children and can assist with brain development, concentration, nerve functioning and mood, as well as supporting children with ADD/ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder), allergies, atopic eczema and inflammation.
TurboKidz Smart Omega Tutti Fruity is ideal for smaller children and contains 230 mg DHA and 70 mg EPA (per 2 capsules) and can be chewed or swallowed. Studies suggest that a higher EPA is better suited for concentration (functional), whereas DHA plays an important role in neural development (structural). Research also suggests that DHA is continuously important after infancy, but the physiological need for EPA and omega-6 GLA increases during childhood and adolescence. EPA and DHA have different functions, and that is why we need both, especially for the brain.
The only thing that changes as children grow up is the need for a higher EPA ratio; because DHA is most important during neural development and EPA is most important during cognitive development
These are essential formulas for growing kids and adolescents which may assist with:
- Brain development
- Concentration
- Nerve functioning
- Mood
- ADD/ADHD
- Allergies
- Inflammation
- Suitable for children with diabetes
- No sugar or preservatives
