Hi Sara,

The box says a whole packet for ages 4-adult. I have been giving Ellie

about 1/4 of the packet since I am nursing her and taking it myself. I

would probably give her a half if she wasn't nursing and didn't love

Salmon. I am going to email the website to our nutritionist and ask her

what dosing she'd recommend...I'll let you know what she says. Let me

know how it goes!

Re: Omega 3 suggestions for toddlers/LAURA

Hi ,

I want to try this with Zach. How much of the packet do you give

Ellie? Does she get a whole packet?

Do you need to adjust her enzymes with this oil or is it easily

absorbed?

This sounds like great stuff and I can't wait to try it.
