Sea-Licious® fish oil is a healthy and highly bioavailable source of the two essential Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids – eicosapentaenoic fatty acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic fatty acid (DHA), in combination with vitamin D3.
EPA and DHA play a vital role in mental and neurological development, vision, cardiovascular system, immune system and bones. They are not produced naturally in the body and must be obtained through food and/or supplements. The main source of EPA and DHA is oily fish and seafood, but since the typical modern diet does not provide enough of these foods, it is recommended to take these beneficial fatty acids in addition.
5 reasons to choose Sea-Licious® fish oil
Sea-Licious® has important advantages over many fish oil products. Here are its benefits and distinguishing features!
→ Triglyceride form (TG) is available – it is the natural form of Omega-3. During the processing process, natural triglycerides are converted to ethyl esters (EE). In order to obtain a product of optimal quality, another step is needed – the ethyl esters are converted back to the triglyceride form, which is characterized by a much higher bioavailability and absorption rate. However, some manufacturers skip the second step of the technology in order to save costs, as a result of which the fish oil they offer is not well absorbed, oxidizes and goes rancid much more easily, and its quality, safety and effectiveness are compromised. In comparison, the triglyceride form of fish oil, which is contained in Sea-Licious®, is far more stable, completely safe and super bioavailable to the body.
→ It has a five-star IFOS certificate – this means that the fish oil has been additionally tested for purity of composition and safety.
IFOS (International Fish Oil Standards) is the oldest and most established Nutrasource certification, which has existed since 1994 and guarantees transparency and quality.
The IFOS certification mark is a guarantee that the product:
→ provides the exact amount and specific type of Omega-3 fatty acids specified on the label;
→ does not contain dangerous levels of harmful chemicals;
→ is distinguished by the preserved stability and freshness of the composition.

→ It has an ISURA certificate - a guarantee that the product has undergone high-tech tests, including mass spectral analysis, through which over 400 types of pesticides, solvents, heavy metals, etc. can be identified.
→ Enriched with Astaxanthin to protect Omega-3 fatty acids from oxidation – Astaxanthin is one of the most powerful antioxidants, about 130 times more active than vitamin C. It is responsible for the color of salmon meat, as well as many types of red-colored algae. It is included in the composition of Sea-Licious® to prevent the oxidation of omega-3 acids from light and heat, and to ensure the freshness of the product until its expiration date.
The astaxanthin in Sea-Licious® is presented in the form of the special patented Asta-Guard™ extract, extracted from cultivated Haematococcus pluvialis algae without the use of harsh chemicals.
In addition to fully preserving the freshness of fish oil, astaxanthin provides health benefits – it belongs to the carotenoid group and exhibits powerful immunostimulating, anti-inflammatory and vitamin A-like effects, and helps protect cells against toxic damage caused by free radicals.
→ With a completely natural cotton candy aroma and taste that kids love – the effect is achieved through a steam distillation process that captures the essence of burnt sugar. It is done without the use of chemicals and extracts the aromatic sweet molecules without leaving any sugar residue.
Omega-3 – with a critical role for adolescent health
A child's neurological connections and pathways are developing by the age of 3, but brain cell development continues until late adolescence. Omega-3 fatty acids are one of the most important nutrients during these key periods of life, needed for:
→ stimulation of brain function;
→ maintaining optimal ability to concentrate and learn and memorize new information;
→ supporting the normal functioning of the nervous system
The inclusion of vitamin D3 in Sea-Licious® is no coincidence. Maintaining healthy levels of this vitamin in the body during the years of growth and development is crucial for bone, dental and immune health.
Vitamin D3 optimizes calcium metabolism and improves its absorption from the diet, and also exhibits anti-infective and immunomodulatory effects.
Well-known conditions associated with the deficiency of this vitamin are rickets and osteomalacia, as well as the body's susceptibility to infections.
The product is sweetened with monk fruit extract. It is sugar, GMO and gluten free.
Method of administration:
Children from 1 to 13 years of age ½ to 1 tsp (2.5 ml to 5 ml) daily.
