Nordic Naturals Zero Sugar Children's DHA Vegetarian Gummy Chews (30 gummies) are soft, sugar-free chewable gummies with 250 mg DHA from plant-based algae oil. These gummies are specially developed for children from 3 years old. The DHA comes from microalgae (Schizochytrium sp.), a 100% plant-based source of omega-3 fatty acids. The gummies have a tropical passion fruit-lemon flavor and are completely free of sugar. Parents often choose this product for children who do not eat fish or have difficulty with capsules.

Frequently asked questions
Why is algae oil chosen instead of fish oil?
Algae oil is naturally rich in DHA and is used as a plant-based alternative to fish oil. It is odorless, mild in taste, and comes from sustainable, controlled cultivation.
What is Schizochytrium sp.?
That is a type of microalga used in this product as a source of DHA. The algae grow in the sea and are specially cultivated for algae oil production.
Should the gummy be taken with a meal?
It is recommended to give the gummy with a meal. This is helpful for the absorption of fatty substances such as DHA, but it can also be taken at another time of the day.
My child already eats flaxseed or walnuts. So why still give this gummy?
Flaxseed and walnuts contain ALA, a different type of omega-3. The body can convert ALA to DHA, but this only happens in very small amounts. This gummy provides direct DHA, which is not found in plant-based foods such as nuts or seeds.
What exactly is DHA, and why is it in this product?
DHA stands for docosahexaenoic acid, an omega-3 fatty acid that naturally occurs in fish and marine algae. In this product, it comes from microalgae. DHA is a commonly used ingredient in children’s omega-3 gummies, as it is a way to provide children with plant-based omega-3.
What makes this DHA ‘vegetarian’ or ‘vegan’?
The DHA in these gummies comes entirely from microalgae (Schizochytrium sp.), so not from fish oil. Therefore, it is suitable for vegetarians and vegans. No animal ingredients are used in this product.
