Re: Has anyone tried Yummi Bears Omega 3-6-9?

[Guest guest]

I tried a gummy version from nordic naturals called omega-3 gummies (which taste

pretty good) and when I spoke on the phone with who wrote the " Late Talker "

book she said this wasn't a good one because it was missing some of the

ingredients that are in the Nordic Naturals Omega 3-6-9.??? I'm not sure what

your gummies have in them but you?may want to compare the bottles to make

sure.??? Have you tried popping it with a pin and putting it in something your

son really likes??? My son won't eat it straight but I can nearly always fool

him if I put it in yogurt.?? I've also put it in applesauce and added sugar to

overcome the taste.?? When I can't get him to do either of those I put it in

chocolate milk I make with Hershey's syrup and I put in extra chocolate.?? I've

never had him refuse it that way.

Good luck,

Sue

[ ] Has anyone tried Yummi Bears Omega 3-6-9?

I know its not fish oil, but we just can't seem to get that in without spilling

or dripping or spitting it out...and then we ALL smell like fish all day!!

I was wondering if anyone has tried the Yummi Bears. I believe this is flax seed

based, which I know hasn't been shown to have the same success as fish oil, but

it does have the Omega 6 and 9 which not all the other " better " tasting options

bave.

Thanks,

We've tried some. Not sure if it was leled " Gummi " or " Yummi " , but they were

different shapes, sugar coated, tart taste, with a side taste of " fishy " . We no

longer buy them because we did not like the odd taste.

If you want to give your normal developing child a bit of EFAs (with sugar) or a

treat for your communication impaired child -then these type of gummies are

fine. If one is looking for surges in speech...these formulas are not right-

and way too low in dosage.

I actually DO like the Nordic fishies because it's encapsulated fish oil but for

REAL tastes like an orange gummie -no fish taste at all -but it's pure omega 3

without the 6 -and again the dosage is not enough either.

Here's a page from our apraxia.org page fish oils 101

I would also make sure that there is no phenylalanine in the product, just in

case.
