Omega-3 DHA for Sleep

Omega-3 fats have already been shown to improve behaviour, attention, cognitive function and development in children, but did you know they may also help your child get a good night’s sleep?

Sleep problems are some of the most common problems parents face with their kids. You may wonder about how to get your child to sleep through the night. School-age children need between 9 and 12 hours of sleep each night, but often children are not getting enough zzzz’s.

Sleep Research

There is hope for tired parents. A recent study by the university of Oxford suggests that higher levels of omega-3 and in particular DHA are associated with better sleep. During the study, 362 children from 74 Oxford primary schools were given either a 600mg supplement of omega-3 (high in DHA) or a placebo over 16 weeks to find out if sleep would improve.

The group who were given the DHA for 16 weeks had better sleep quality, had 7 fewer wake episodes per night and had 46 minutes more sleep per night.

Both sleep problems and dietary deficiencies of omega-3 fatty acids such as DHA are associated with poor general health and with behavioural and cognitive problems (e.g. underperforming in reading). These results show that DHA supplementation may improve children’s sleep.

To increase your child’s DHA intake, you should include at least 2 portions of oily fish (salmon, mackerel or sardines) in their diet weekly or give your child a high quality fish oil supplement. You can boost your child’s intake of DHA with Eskimo Kids which contains 280mg DHA in each teaspoon.

Tips to Do to Help Kids Sleep

1. Make bedtime enjoyable

Bedtime can be great quality “one to one” time with your child. Be firm and go through a certain bedtime routine that your child is used to e.g. bath, wash teeth, read and lullaby. At the end of that routine the lights go off or dim and it is time to fall asleep.

2. Put your child to bed before they get sleepy

Often a child can find it more difficult to sleep if they are over tired. This can lead to a child being more difficult to handle and can cause havoc in a household.

3. Have a regular daily routine

A routine with the same waking time, meal times, nap time and play times will help your child to feel secure and comfortable, and help with a smooth bedtime. Children like to know what to expect.

4. Be active during the day

Running and playing games for approximately 3 hours in the evening will help your child feel tired naturally in the evening.

5. Keep room comfortable

Keep the room comfortable. This includes a good mattress, tidy room, dim lighting, and blackout curtains. In the morning, open curtains and put on full lights. Light helps signal the brain into the right sleep-wake cycle.

6. Snack before bedtime

Have a small snack 60 minutes before bedtime. Try a cracker with cottage cheese, banana or nut butter to help induce sleep.

7. No TV or games console in bedroom

Remove the TV or games console from the bedroom. Research shows watching TV or playing computer games just before bedtime are linked to sleep problems.

8. Remove excess toys from bed

Remove excess of toys from the bed. It is probably best to keep your child’s bed a place to sleep, rather than a place to play. Their favourite teddy, doll or blanket is soothing but too many toys can be distracting.

What to Avoid

1. Do not use bed as a threat

A child should look forward to snuggling up in bed, so do not use it as a punishment. If the feeling around bedtime is a good feeling, your child will fall asleep easier.

2. Avoid caffeine

Avoid giving your child caffeine. Drinks such as hot chocolate, tea, cola as well as chocolate bars should be avoided. Even caffeine earlier in the day could disrupt your child’s sleep cycle.

Children’s Nutrition

As a parent, you constantly question yourself. This includes whether or not your child is getting the nutrition they need for healthy growth and development. Most parents provide balanced meals with lots of colourful foods to ensure an array of vitamins and minerals are provided. But what about Omega-3?

Omega-3 Dosage for Kids

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) state that you need 250mg DHA daily to support healthy brain function. Eating oily fish (e.g. salmon, sardines) twice a week will provide a healthy dose of Omega-3 EPA/DHA. Since it is almost impossible to get children to eat enough fish, it’s smart to supplement their diet with omega-3 oil such as Eskimo-3 Kids.

For children under 12 years, choose from Eskimo-3 Kids liquid (1-12 years) or Eskimo-3 Kids chewable DHA+ (3 years +). The Eskimo-3 Kids liquids contain a mixture of Omega-3, 6 and 9 with 5ug Vitamin D (100% recommended for children) plus Vitamin E for freshness. This is available in Tutti Frutti (raspberry type flavour) or orange flavour. The omega-3 is vital for brain function, vision, focus while omega-6 is good for mood. Vitamin D is vital for bones and immunity.

Eskimo-3 Kids Chewable DHA+

If your child would prefer a chewable, choose Eskimo-3 Kids Chewable DHA+. It is a soft to chew and very well liked. It’s one a day, and contains omega-3 rich in DHA for brain function and vision. Also contains choline for memory and concentration, biotin which calms the nervous system and 10ug Vitamin D (200% recommended for children) – good for bones and immunity. As you can see, both would be beneficial- it’s down to personal preference.

Purest Fish Oils for Kids

Kids are fussy, and so are we! On the Market for more than 20 years, Eskimo-3 kids is one of the purest fish oils available today. Extracted from the flesh of the fish and not the liver, it goes beyond the strictest laws to ensure you get a fresh and stable oil, free from contaminants and heavy metals like mercury; therefore “as clean as nature intended.”

Kids Health

Today’s parents know that their children need more than just a multivitamin to support their health. Because a child’s brain and nervous system have different fatty acid requirements whilst growing, Eskimo-3 Kids has been specifically formulated to combine natural fish oil with natural plant oils, providing a balance of omega-3, 6 and 9 that reflects these needs. Omega fatty acids are ideal support for the health, brain function and all-round ability of children, helping them to achieve their full potential at school! Irish parents voted Eskimo-3 the best Omega-3 supplement for kids.

Food Supplements for Kids

With school in full swing, you may wish to consider the following food supplements to support your child’s body and mind over the coming months. Below are 5 food supplements to consider.

Best kids Vitamins and Supplements

1. Multivitamin and Mineral

A children’s multivitamin mineral will provide your child with all necessary vitamins and minerals required for proper growth and development. Giving your child a multi-vitamin and mineral is a great way to safeguard their health. A good multi vitamin and mineral will provide plenty of B vitamins and magnesium for energy, vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc to support their immune system, calcium, magnesium, potassium and vitamin d for bone health and trace minerals for overall health and vitality.

2. Omega-3 Supplement

Omega-3 fatty acids are the most critical building blocks of the brain; they are considered essential and must be obtained through diet or supplementation. Without these important fats, it can become difficult for children to concentrate, learn new information, and balance their moods properly. Since most children do not eat oily fish on a regular basis, omega-3s are in short supply during the most critical stages of brain development.

A 2012 study found Omega 3 DHA had a profound improvement in reading age, concentration and learning ability in children, lower levels of DHA were attributed to poorer reading and impaired performance. A more recent study revealed that increased omega-3 levels can boost behaviour, attention and literacy in ADHD children.

According to The European Food Safety Authority, adults and children require a minimum of 250mg Omega-3 EPA and DHA for a healthy heart and 250mg Omega-3 DHA for healthy brain function and vision.

Eating oily fish twice a week from salmon, mackerel, anchovies, sardines and herring, will supply the recommended amount of omega-3. According to an IPSOS/MRBI survey, a massive 89% of Irish people are not consuming enough oily fish (e.g. sardines, anchovies) in their diet, so there is often a need to supplement with a premium fish oil such as Eskimo-3.

3. Probiotic

A child’s digestive system needs adequate levels of good bacteria to ensure optimal digestive health. Certain bacteria actually help the body to digest food properly and help to defend it from stomach upset and infections. Adequate bacteria in the gut contributes to a healthy immune system, helping to combat infection.

4. Vitamin D3

Vitamin D, the “sunshine vitamin, is well known for its role in building strong bones and teeth. It’s not just about bones though. Vitamin D is needed for a healthy immune system – helping the body to fight off infections such as throat infections and asthma. The Irish Osteoporosis Society has called on parents to keep vitamin D intake top of mind as we head for the winter months. Some 88% of primary school children in Ireland have been reported to have vitamin D intakes below the recommended amount, so supplementing with this vital nutrient may help to reduce their chance of missing school due to illness.

5. Calcium

Our bones and teeth are primarily built with Calcium and therefore during early years Calcium is extremely important as your kid is growing in structure, building bones and teething. Kids who do not get sufficient calcium and vitamin D are at increased risk for rickets (softening and weakening of bones in children, poor growth).

A variety of children’s supplements are available in health food stores and pharmacies nationwide, so drop into your local store for advice on the most appropriate supplements to suit your child’s needs.

Back to School

Whether your child is returns to school in September after a hot, fun-filled summer, or starts school for the first time, preparing to go back to school can be stressful for both you and your child.

You may already have added a new school uniform, lunch box, and pencil case to the back to school shopping list. However, it is also important to ensure your child’s concentration levels are back in full gear for the upcoming school year.

There are old sayings that “eating fish will make you intelligent” and that “fish is brain food”. Recent studies have shown once again that this may well be true and that the reason lies in the omega-3 fatty acid DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid).

Why Children Need Omega-3

Omega-3 fatty acids are the most critical building blocks of the brain. They are considered essential, and must be obtained through diet or supplementation. Without these important fats, it can become difficult for children to concentrate, learn new information, and balance their moods properly. Since most children do not eat oily fish on a regular basis, omega-3s are in short supply during the most critical stages of brain development.

Lower levels of DHA were attributed to poorer reading and impaired performance. A more recent study revealed that increased omega-3 levels can boost behaviour, attention and literacy in ADHD children.

Sunshine and Vitamin D for Kids

Vitamin D is the sunshine vitamin. It is a sizzling hot topic that is receiving plenty of media and scientific attention. Vitamin D is well known for its part in building strong bones and teeth. It’s not just about bones though. Vitamin D is needed for a healthy immune system. This helps the body to fight off infections. These include throat infections and asthma.

Low levels of vitamin D are often associated with S.A.D (also known as the winter blues).

Our primary source of this nutrient is the sun. We can convert this into plenty of vitamin-D in the skin. However, Ireland does not get as much sun as we would like. So, for most of the year, it is vital to supplement.

Omega-3 DHA for School Kids

Unless your children are eating 3 portions of oily fish a week, a pure Omega 3 DHA is a must. We have the answer! Consume just one 5ml spoon of Eskimo-3 Kids a day should be top of every parents shopping list, available in two delicious flavours, zingy orange and funky tutti frutti.

Essential for Good Health

Omega-3 fatty acids are considered essential as they cannot be synthesized in the body and must be obtained from food or supplements. You can think of these nutrients as building blocks of your child’s body. Omega-3s are essential for healthy brain development and function, visual function and healthy growth and development.

It’s especially important for growing children as without these important fats, it can become difficult for kids to concentrate, learn new information, and balance their moods properly. In fact, a 2012 study found Omega 3 DHA had a profound improvement in reading age, concentration and learning ability in children. It showed that lower levels of DHA were attributed to poorer reading and impaired performance.

A 2013 study by The University of Cincinnati College of Medicine looked at how boys responded to Omega-3 DHA. Omega-3 DHA is as important to our brains, as calcium is to our bones. It accounts for 97 percent of the omega-3 fats in the brain. In the study, (McNamara RK et al) showed that subjects who consumed less DHA had slower reaction times and exhibited lower levels of concentration compared with subjects who consumed more DHA.

Omega-3 Dosage

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) state that you need 250 mg DHA daily to support healthy brain function. It is recommended that you eat 2 to 3 portions of oily fish (sardines, salmon, anchovies, mackerel) a week. Unfortunately, an IPSOS/MRBI survey showed that 89% of Irish people across all age groups fail to eat even one portion of oily fish per week, so there is often a need to supplement.

The Sunshine Vitamin

Vitamin D, the sunshine vitamin, is well known for its role in building strong bones and teeth. It’s not just about bones though, it is also needed for a healthy immune system. Vitamin D helps the body to fight off infections such as throat infections and asthma.

Exams can be stressful and so can concentrating for long periods of time in the classroom or when studying at home.

Increasing your level of omega-3, either through diet or supplementation can lead to improved concentration, a sharper memory and less anxiety, – overall making it easier to study.
