Omega-3 Fish Oil Supplement

Countless studies have shown that Omega-3 fatty acids provide tremendous health and mental health benefits. Multiple studies link a deficiency in Omega-3s to depression, anxiety, and ADHD. When choosing an Omega-3 supplement for your child, ensure it contains EPA and DHA. Vitamin D aids in the absorption of fatty acids, so look for a supplement with added D for an extra boost. Barlean’s makes an excellent fish oil for children. Vegetarians can take an algae form of Omega-3. This supplement is relatively safe when given at the appropriate dose for children, as it is a substance found naturally in fish or algae. However, watch for any intolerance or allergy.
