It's now official, recent scientific trials have brought to light what experts have known for some time, daily Omega 3 fish oil supplementation can boost your child's academic potential. Omega 3 can help improve attention, behaviour, intelligence, reading and spelling.

Omega 3 essential fatty acids have a direct effect on brain development and the way the brain functions. The most important essential fatty acids in fish are the omega 3 fatty acids DHA and EPA which cannot be produced by the body. They must be obtained from the diet which can prove to be difficult - many children simply don't like oily fish! A tasty, chewable capsule can offer the perfect solution in such cases.

To maximise your child's potential, it is essential to find a pure, pharmaceutical-grade product with concentrated levels of DHA and EPA. Preferably it should be free from additives such as aspartame, artificial colours and sugar, and probably the most important thing is that it needs to taste great so that your child will look forward to taking it. I believe that Brain Boosters from Healthspan can satisfy all these requirements.
