The one supplement paediatricians keep recommending.

WHAT WE WISH WE KNEW SOONER AS PARENTS: DHA SHAPES YOUR CHILD'S BRAIN, EYES, AND IMMUNITY. IT'S NOT A TREND, IT'S ONE OF THE MOST STUDIED NUTRIENTS IN PAEDIATRIC HEALTH. AND MOST KIDS DON'T GET ENOUGH FROM FOOD ALONE.

Four pillars of childhood development — all supported by DHA.

What omega-3 actually does for growing kids

Add a short description for this section

Brain & Focus

DHA is the primary structural fat in the brain. It supports cognitive development, concentration, and learning — especially during the critical early years when neural pathways are being built.

Vision

DHA makes up over 60% of the fatty acids in the retina. Adequate intake is critical for visual acuity and healthy eye development during early childhood.

Mood & Behaviour

Research links omega-3 intake to emotional regulation and calmer temperaments in children. DHA supports the neurotransmitter systems involved in mood and behavioural balance.

Immunity

Omega-3 fatty acids help support a healthy inflammatory response. This means fewer sick days and a stronger foundation for your child’s developing immune system.

Not all omega-3s are created equal.

EPA MISTS THE LEAVES. DHA FEEDS THE ROOTS. IT'S THE OMEGA-3 THAT ACTUALLY BUILDS BRAIN TISSUE. MOST KIDS' SUPPLEMENTS GO HEAVY ON EPA, LIGHT ON DHA. OURS DELIVERS 450MG OF DHA PER SERVE, FROM ALGAE NOT FISH. BECAUSE WE BELIEVE IN FEEDING THE BRAIN DIRECTLY.

Common questions from parents

How much DHA does my child actually need?

Health authorities generally recommend 100–250mg of DHA per day for children, depending on age. Our Omega-3 Mango Burstlets deliver 450mg of DHA per serve — well above the minimum — because we believe in giving growing brains the full support they need.

What age can they start taking it?

Our burstlets are designed for children aged 3 and up. For younger toddlers, we recommend consulting your paediatrician. DHA is important from birth — but the delivery format matters at different stages.

Is algae-based really better than fish oil?

Algae is where fish get their omega-3 in the first place — so we go straight to the source. Algae-based DHA is sustainable, free from ocean contaminants like mercury and microplastics, and suitable for plant-based families. Same nutrient, cleaner path.

What if my child won’t swallow a softgel?

That’s exactly why we created burstlets. They’re soft, chewable, and taste like real mango — no fishy aftertaste, no coaxing required. Most kids ask for them by name. Think of it as a supplement that doesn’t feel like one.

How long before I notice a difference?

Omega-3 is a long game — it builds up in the body over time. Most parents report noticing changes in focus, mood, or general wellbeing within 4–8 weeks of consistent daily use. The key word is consistent.
