Omega 3 for kids
I have taken an omega-3 supplement for years now. I find the research is just too compelling to ignore. But, I also want to make sure my son gets enough omega-3 fatty acids — especially those found in fish oils. There was no way, however, I was going to give him a supplement meant for adults.
So I was pleased to finally find that you can purchase pharmaceutical-grade fish oil for children. It even comes in a chewable, flavored soft-capsule.
Even though it was flavored, I was skeptical if he would really take it. He loves his Flinstones’ vitamins, but this is oil — eek. Would he really take them?
Well, it turns out he loves them — just as much as his Flintstones’. I tried them myself, and — while I’ll stick to swallowing them rather than chewing — they aren’t too bad.
You can purchase them for $15.95 for 90 capsules at VitaCost.
