* Beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg DHA.
Bone and Teeth Development
Vitamin D is necessary for proper development of bones and teeth. The Dutch Health Council advises giving children up to 4 years old an extra 10 micrograms of vitamin D per day. The daily recommended amount of Möller’s Omega-3 contains 10 micrograms of vitamin D. Give 5 ml or 1 dessert spoon per day.

Immune System
Vitamins A and D in Möller’s Omega-3 support the immune system, including that of children.
Moreover, Möller’s Omega-3 is:
- Very easy to take, due to its liquid form. This makes it a real solution for children who have difficulty swallowing capsules. This also applies to some adults.
