Good Things for Kids, Making Life Easier for Parents
The lack of Omega-3 fatty acids in their diets is one of the biggest nutritional problems facing American children today. Smart fats make the brain grow and perform better. *Omega-3 is rich in DHA which naturally supports healthy brain development, focus and learning.* DHA is vital for brain and nerve function, joint health and mobility, and vision and cardiovascular health.
If you are like most parents, you probably have trouble making sure children eat enough wild salmon and other foods rich in Omega-3. We all want our children to be healthy, smart and successful. But *until now there were no easy way for parents to take action* against this widespread diet deficiency.
As pediatricians, we wanted a product that was Truly Safe, meaning it was free of toxins such as mercury, which are found in many species of fish today. It also had to have a higher ratio of DHA to EPA (most
products are higher in EPA). It had to be *free of any fishy taste or odor*, and *delivered in a way that children would willingly take* without too much fuss. That's why we developed Go Fish Children's Omega-3 DHA supplements, and Go Fish Brainy Kidz Children's Omega-3 DHA Fruit-Based Soft Chews. And unlike most children's vitamins and supplements, ours are not filled with artificial sweeteners and coloring that may lead to hyperactivity, behavior problems and other medical issues. As a parent, you should consider Go Fish and Little Champions an important part of a nutritional insurance policy for your child's health.
*Now Dr. William Sears is taking the confusion out of children's supplements and snacks by designing a line of nutritionally sound products that parents can trust, and that their children will ask for and enjoy.*
*Brain & Nerve:*
DHA, a major and imperative component of brain tissue and neurons, is supportive of cognitive function; helps improve nerve transmission through increasing fluidity of membrane; also may protect and improve the life of neurons.
*Mood & Cognition:*
EPA and DHA have been identified as fatty acids that improve a variety of mood disorders; reduce problems associated with ADHD, and generally improve cognition.
*Immune Health: *
EPA & DHA contribute to balanced eicosanoid production to support balanced immune response.
*Vision:*
DHA is found in high concentration in the retina and is considered important for normal vision; Additionally, Glaucoma patients have reduced intra-ocular pressure with the use of fish oils.
*Joint Health and Mobility: *
EPA and DHA for similar reasons as immune health, i.e. promotes balanced levels of eicosanoids: thromboxanes, leukotrienes, prostaglandins and prostacyclins.
*Cardiovascular Health:*
EPA & DHA helps modulate healthy heartbeat, helps normalize blood triglyceride levels, supports arterial wall elasticity and may help influence C-reactive protein levels; helps maintain and support the body's blood vessels to optimize circulation throughout the body
