Children's DHA Supports Brain Development, and Visual and Nervous System Function Nordic Naturals Children's DHA is a small, chewable cod liver oil supplement flavored with strawberry essence. Children's DHA is a delicious way for children to supplement their diet with the essential brain nutrient, DHA. Molecularly distilled for purity, Children's DHA contains only naturally existing vitamins A and D. For children three years and older. Suggested Use: Four soft gels daily, with food, or as directed by your health care professional or pharmacist. General Nutrient Support DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) is a polyunsaturated fatty acid found in deep-sea cold water fish. DHA is an essential nutrient for proper brain, nervous system, and visual function and must be obtained through the diet. A healthy balance of DHA is essential to properly care for the brain throughout life, particularly during the early stages of development. A high concentration of DHA can be found in mother’s breast milk. However, the level is directly related to the amount of omega-3 fatty acids that are consumed in the mother’s diet. Due to refined foods and trendy diets, many individuals have reduced their intake of the dietary sources of omega-3 fatty acids, contributing to lower levels of DHA in breast milk. The impact of low DHA intake on neurological function of adults and children is the subject of ongoing clinical investigations. Ingredients: purified arctic cod liver oil, soft gel capsule (gelatin, water, glycerin, strawberry essence), d-alpha tocopherol, strawberry essence, rosemary extract

Kids love the taste....Apr 16, 2007
By maria
"momry"
My 7 year old son has been taking 4 of these for about a little over a year now. It has really helped with his focus and concentration. You can chew them and they taste like strawberry....no fishy taste. He loves them. I love that they help him. Worth the money and peace of mind. People are so quick to use adhd meds, when they should give this a try...I am not a doctor...but it has really helped my son a lot. I would check with the doctor to be sure it is okay. I am thankful for them. Not a miracle cure...but they do help.

A huge difference!Jun 24, 2008
By Sivje A. Parish
"Real Mom"
My 3 year old daughter has a lot of sensory processing issues and I had read that fish oil could have a positive impact on her sensory integration. She loves the strawberry Children's DHA gelcaps and asks for them. We can tell a real difference in her behaviour and her ability to calm herself when she has been taking her dha regularly. When we run out, we notice that she just has a harder time dealing with sensory issues. So for us, this product has made a huge difference.

My Child Loves TheseMay 26, 2006
By R. Burke My four year old has been taking these for a couple of years. She loves the taste; she will ask for her "fish vitamins" every day. She can swallow them now, but she chewed them earlier. The taste is surprisingly pleasant. We don't get a lot of DHA and other essential fatty acids in our diet (we do try!) so we use these as insurance.

MY KIDS LOVE THEMMay 04, 2010
By TiredMama My kids have been taking these vitamins since they were 2. They take them in the morning after breakfast and headed out to school. We call them brain vitamins and they don't like forgetting to take them as they know it helps all parts of their body but especially the brain. I have heard people say their kids dont like them which is plausible if you have been used to corn syrup drenched vitamins in the past. Give them a go. Worth every penny.

Helped with my sons eczema!Dec 08, 2007
By Roberts Mommy My son has been taking these supplements since October & it has really seemed to help his eczema. He gets it really bad in the winter & hasn't had one break-out this year!!! He doesn't mind the taste, but he does spit out the outer "shell".
