Unless your child is eating at least 2 portions of oily fish per week, then they are likely to be low in Omega 3 and should therefore be supplementing to avoid any deficiencies. It is even more critical that infants and children have excellent Omega 3 levels, as they are still growing and developing all of their organs, but especially their brain and cognitive behaviour. It's very hard to obtain Omega 3 from diet, unless you are consuming oily fish, so if your child does not like the taste of fish, a supplement may be a good option. If you wish to supplement on top of your child eating oily fish, that is safe too.

The softgels are suitable for a child who is not at risk of choking, and the softgels can be chewed. A good tip is keeping them in the fridge to enhance taste. The oil is very neutral, fresh and non fishy and we find children like them.

Yes it is. 60 % of the brain is fat and Omega 3 plays a significant role in cognitive behavior and studies have shown its positive effects on behavior such as intelligence, focus, concentration, reading ability and the promotion of good behavior. Children on learning spectrums (or autism spectrum) will require more Omega 3 and children with speech delays, tics, stammers or similar, should be taking Omega 3. Children with ADHD, who have lower serum levels of omega-3 fatty acids, have been shown to have more behavioural problems.
