Description

Fewer than one in 10 children in the UK are eating enough fish to meet health guidelines and worse still, a staggering 87% of youngsters do not eat oily fish, according to new study data just out. The results are especially worrying because of fresh evidence linking a key ingredient found in fish and fish oil supplements -- omega-3 - with a significant boost to mental and physical health in unborn babies as well as infants and children./nDr Carrie Ruxton & Dr Catherine Hood look at how to solve the problem of getting kids who won't eat fish to get the benefits of those essential oils./nIn the latest research , commissioned by children's supplement brand Haliborange, makers of a range of Omega-3 supplements for babies, toddlers, children and teenagers, more than 1,000 parents of children aged from under one to 16 from across the UK were quizzed about their youngsters' diets. The study paints a startling picture of children's fish eating habits across the nation.
