New Omega-3 supplement for kids from the pioneers of test-based nutrition
The global health and wellness brand from Scandinavia that changed the future of fish oil with its game-changing range of BalanceOils, is now launching its first kids range product as part of the company’s test-based approach to personal health and wellness.
Close to 6,3 billion people today are not getting enough Omega-3 from their diet, according to The GBD (Global Burden of Disease). Our Western diet is not as nutritious as it used to be, and most children don't reach the recommended fish intake. The National Institutes of Health states that the Omega-3 deficiency in children is close to 80% in Europe and as high as 94% in the US. Consequently, more parents are turning to supplementation to help fill in these nutritional gaps.
The new BalanceOil Tutti Frutti from Zinzino has a fresh, allergy-friendly aroma with hints of raspberry, mint, lemon, pear and lavender. It is based on the same unique blend as the rest of the signature range of Polyphenol Omega Balance food supplements, containing pure, premium fish oil and extra virgin olive oil known for its high content of natural antioxidants.
All BalanceOils are available in a range of different flavors, in liquid form and capsules. There’s also a water-soluble option and a vegan formula. The new, easy-to-swallow flavor includes specific dosage recommendations to meet kids’ unique Omega-3 needs and will safely restore their unique fatty acid balance while supporting normal immune, eye and brain function.
True to their holistic perspective on personal health, Zinzino’s flagship product in the growing portfolio of dried blood spot tests; the BalanceTest, now offers essential Omega-3 screening with age-appropriate target values. Both adults and children need to find out their individual starting and ending Omega-6:3 ratio and unique fatty acid profile in order to get supplements that meet their specific needs.
- Today’s guidelines for recommended Omega-3 intake are based on adults’ needs and their fatty acid ratio, says dr. Emmalee Gisslevik, Research and Development Specialist at Zinzino. Children have a higher rate of metabolism, an immature immune system and faster cell division, all of which impact their overall Omega ratio in the blood. Not all bodies are created equal, and children need special dosage recommendations. A weight chart is not always enough as a guide and that is why this new release is such an important contribution to the Omega-3 market, dr. Gisslevik concludes.
BalanceOil Tutti Frutti and BalanceTest for the whole family are both available to order from Zinzino now. Learn more about the growing portfolio of at-home, dried blood spot tests and its groundbreaking range of supplements at zinzino.com
