Children need, just like us adults, to get all the important nutrients daily to maintain good health. Unlike adults, children do not know that it is important to eat vegetables, fatty fish, fruit, berries, nuts and seeds, but simply only want to eat what they think is good. This means that many parents struggle with getting their children a varied, healthy diet and it can feel like a real challenge at times. Fina Fisken and Multi-Bombisar are two food supplements that supplement the children’s diet with important fatty acids , vitamins , minerals and lactic acid bacteria. With good flavors and fun shapes that children enjoy, it becomes easy to include them in children’s daily routines.
Fina Fisken – Good omega-3 for children
Like adults, children need omega-3 in their diet. It’s not always easy to get children to eat oily fish, and doing it every week can be a real challenge. With Fina Fisken, your child gets a simple alternative that tastes as good as candy but contains important omega-3 fatty acids from fish. This dietary supplement is intended for children aged 3 and up.
EPA and DHA
Fina Fisken provides well-balanced amounts of the essential fatty acids EPA and DHA in the form of chews that taste 0% fish, only the delicious taste of tuttifrutti that the children love. The capsules taste more like candy and are therefore appreciated by children above all, but adults can also eat them. For children, it is easier to eat 1-2 Fina Fisken than a whole meal of fish. EPA and DHA belong to the omega-3 family, which is a group of essential, i.e. vital, fatty acids . There are several omega-3 fatty acids, but it is mainly EPA and DHA that are of interest as the body lacks the ability to manufacture these itself and they must be supplied via the diet. In the body, these fatty acids are used in several important functions.
Advantages of Fina Fisken
Fina Fish is also fortified with vitamin E , which helps protect cells from oxidative stress. Fina Fisken is also completely free of added sugar.
The chewable capsules are shaped like fish, which makes it extra fun for children to get their daily dose of omega-3. Each capsule contains a whopping 500 mg of pure fish oil , which provides 182.5 mg of omega-3.
Facts about Omega-3
- The brain is the most fat-rich organ in our body and a full 11% of the fat content consists of the omega-3 fatty acid DHA.
- Our retina in the eye consists of a whopping 9% DHA.
- Omega-3 is not only found in fish but also in vegetables. In the plant kingdom, the fatty acid is called ALA and must be converted to DHA in the body. However, this process is not efficient so the active forms DHA and EPA are preferred.
- Omega-3 is important for the brain, vision and also the heart.
Multibombisar – Vitamins, minerals and lactic acid bacteria for children.
Multi-Bombisar is a multivitamin and mineral product with lactic acid bacteria developed for children aged 3 and up. Candy-like bomb-shaped chews with a good strawberry flavor that make it easy for parents to give their children extra nutrition. It is also one of the few children’s products on the market that contains lactic acid bacteria!
Children can be picky about vitamins
A good chew consisting of a combination of vitamins , minerals and lactic acid bacteria makes it easy for parents to meet their children’s nutritional needs when food is not always enough. The idea is that children should get everything they need through food, it’s a good idea but it’s not always that simple in practice. Many children are picky eaters and it can be a challenge to get them a versatile diet.
Vitamins
Multi-Bombisar contains vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, biotin, folic acid, B12, C, D and E. A wide range of both water- and fat-soluble vitamins where, among other things, vitamin D is needed for normal development and growth of children’s bones. Vitamin D also contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system in children.
Minerals
Multi-Bombisar not only contains vitamins but also minerals in the form of iodine , selenium and zinc . Iodine contributes to normal growth in children.
Lactic acid bacteria
Billions of bacteria live in the intestinal system, where they affect the health of both adults and children in many different ways. There are bacteria that are good for us and others that are less good. Gut flora is one of the biggest areas of research we have right now, and more and more connections are being discovered between the gut bacteria and health/illness. Multi-Bombisar contains lactic acid bacteria from the well-studied Bacillus coagulans strain, which is a safe, stable organism that resists degradation by stomach acid.
