Docosahexaenoic acid and the developing central nervous system in humans functional and structural considerations
Prostaglandins, Leukotrienes and Essential Fatty Acids, 2000
Each chewable softgel delivers 100mg DHA and 60mg EPA in re-esterified triglyceride (rTG) form, the most bioavailable form of fish oil. Sourced from wild anchovy, sardine, and mackerel. Mercury free and molecularly distilled. Natural orange flavour sweetened with monk fruit. No sugar. No artificial additives.
Fish oil sourced from three wild-caught small pelagic fish species: anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus), sardine (Sardina pilchardus), and mackerel (Scomber scombrus). These species are harvested from cold, clean ocean waters and are near the bottom of the marine food chain, which means they accumulate significantly less mercury than large predatory fish such as tuna, swordfish, or shark.
The raw fish oil is purified by molecular distillation, removing heavy metals (including mercury), PCBs, dioxins, and other environmental contaminants. It is then re-esterified to convert the concentrated oil back into the natural triglyceride structure (rTG form). The finished oil is blended with non-GMO MCT oil, natural orange flavour, monk fruit extract, vitamin E, and rosemary leaf extract, and encapsulated in a chewable gelatin softgel in Canada in a quality controlled facility under Health Canada oversight.
Fish oil comes in three forms: natural triglyceride (TG), ethyl ester (EE), and re-esterified triglyceride (rTG). The rTG form takes the concentrated ethyl ester and re-attaches the fatty acids to a glycerol backbone, recreating the natural triglyceride structure at a higher DHA and EPA concentration. The digestive system absorbs triglyceride-form fats most efficiently. Studies show rTG form achieves significantly higher plasma DHA and EPA levels than ethyl ester form at the same dose. For a children's supplement where each softgel is small, maximizing absorption matters.
DHA is the most abundant omega-3 in the human brain and retina. It is a structural component of neuronal cell membranes and retinal photoreceptor membranes, not just a fuel source. The brain accumulates DHA rapidly from birth through childhood. DHA makes up approximately 50% of the fatty acids in retinal photoreceptor membranes, the highest concentration of DHA in any tissue in the body. This formula is DHA dominant (100mg DHA, 60mg EPA per softgel) to reflect that priority. Health Canada has licensed this product (NPN 80102579) for helping support the development of the brain, eyes, and nerves in children up to 12 years of age.
Non-medicinal ingredients: Gelatin (softgel shell), non-GMO MCT oil, natural orange flavour, monk fruit extract (Siraitia grosvenorii), vitamin E (tocopherol), rosemary leaf extract. No sugar. No artificial sweeteners, colours, or flavours.
Consult a healthcare practitioner to determine the appropriate dosage for your child.
Children aged 3 and older who need daily DHA support for brain, eye, and nerve development. A good fit if you want a chewable softgel your child will accept, the most bioavailable form of fish oil (rTG), a mercury-free formula from low-risk wild fish sources, and a Health Canada licensed, Canadian-made product with no sugar or artificial additives.
Not suitable for children with fish allergies or for vegetarian and vegan families (contains gelatin). Consult a healthcare practitioner before use for children under 3 or if your child has a medical condition or is taking medications.
Chew softgel thoroughly before swallowing. Take with food. Refrigerate after opening.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Refrigerate after opening to preserve freshness. Keep bottle tightly sealed. Keep out of reach of children.
