What makes PLUSEPA® so unique?
Using a food supplement such as PLUSEPA® you are safe in the knowledge that your child is consuming 90% of the supporting Omega-3 fatty acid EPA.
What you should know:
When your child eats oily fish you are never sure whether he/she is consuming a surplus of EPA or a surplus of DHA (fish contains both EPA and DHA in unpredictable proportions).
No matter how, food supplements based on algae (vegetarian Omega-3) mainly supply DHA, and virtually no EPA. Algae preparations are, therefore, not a good choice when it comes to boosting the concentration of primary school age children.
In order to consume the recommended 500 mg EPA your child would have to eat up to 250 g of salmon or ½ kg of tuna ‘each day’, to mention but a few examples. With fish it is obviously important to vary the type of fish you eat. Variation prevents your child from consuming too many toxic substances, as nowadays fish live in relatively polluted waters.
