What is Omegor Kids?

Dear Fabio,

Omegor Kids is a honey-flavored, orange-flavored Omega-3 supplement.

Available in single-dose sachets, it contains 200 mg of DHA oil extracted from microalgae, the only plant-based source of Omega-3 DHA.

Daily intake of 250 mg of DHA is recommended for normal development of visual function as well as the brain in children: it is in fact one of the basic constituents of the membranes of the cells of the nervous system and the retina. The formulation is enriched with:
  • Vitamin D3, important for calcium and phosphate fixation in bones and tooth enamel;
  • Vitamin C, useful for the immune system.
The syrup is particularly pleasant thanks to honey, a natural energy source with known antibacterial, emollient and soothing activity. The dosage is 1 sachet per day, to be taken singly or as a snack replacement, or added to yogurt, white or fruit. No need to take on a full stomach: this makes the product very convenient because it can be taken anywhere and at any time of day. Supplementation with this supplement is especially useful during school time. I cordially greet you and remain available for any clarification.

Dr. Rosaria Ramondino,
