Concentration supplements for children
A good ability to concentrate is extremely important for children. If a child can concentrate well at school, he or she can more easily absorb and understand the subject matter. This ensures that a child “easier” achieves good results at school and prevents a lot of frustration. Nutrition and supplements can certainly contribute to supporting the ability to concentrate, learning performance and mental balance in general.
How can a child concentrate better?
There are many factors that determine whether a child can concentrate well. Some you can influence yourself and some are genetically determined. We focus mainly on the factors that you can influence, because that is where the gains can be made. Sufficient sleep and a lot of exercise are two of those factors that can help improve your child's ability to concentrate. But as far as we are concerned, nutrition is the most important factor for a healthy ability to concentrate.
A child's brain is still developing and needs the right nutrients for that. In addition, the brain also needs nutrients to function properly: to concentrate, process information, remember and above all learn a lot. But how do you make sure that your child gets the right nutrients?
Foods to Improve Child's Concentration
It all starts with variation! Lots of vegetables, lots of fruit and preferably also some animal products such as eggs, oily fish and occasionally a piece of meat. Eggs and oily fish in particular are real miracle cures for the concentration of a child (and adults). We will explain why.
Eggs
Eggs are truly miracle cures for children. They are full of super healthy nutrients that are extremely important for brain function and development. For example, they contain healthy fats, iron, choline, vitamin D, A, E and B12.
Fatty fish
Fatty fish are rich in so-called omega-3 fatty acids. These fatty acids are extremely important for the development of the brain and the functioning of the brain. In addition, fatty fish is a source of minerals such as iron, magnesium and zinc.
Supplements for a child's concentration
Supplements can help support a child's ability to concentrate and their learning performance. However, not all supplements are suitable for children, which is why you need to be extra careful with what your child takes. Some dosages in food supplements are far too high, which can sometimes be unhealthy. We have various supplements in our range that can help a child's ability to concentrate.
1. Alfa Focus
Alfa Focus is a supplement based on Skullcap and L-theanine together with vitamin B3 and Biotin. This supplement is safe to use for children from 4 years and comes in a vegetarian capsule. If your child has trouble swallowing capsules, you can also break open the capsule and mix it with some juice, lemonade or a spoonful of custard or porridge.
- Helps support learning performance
- Is good for concentration
- Supports mental balance
- Safe to use from 4 years
2. Fish oil
In addition, we have two fish oil supplements in our range: Ultra Omega-3 and Omega-3 liquid. The Ultra Omega-3 is in a capsule and the other product is liquid and has a nice raspberry flavour. Many parents choose the omega-3 liquid, because children often find it difficult to swallow capsules and it has a nice taste.
- Is good for brain development
- Helps the brain function properly
- Keep your heart and blood vessels healthy
3. L-Theanine, Omega-3 and Skullcap
This is a (value) package that combines Alfa Focus with Ultra Omega-3. This package is ordered most often from us and we recommend using this combination. This package offers optimal support for your child's ability to concentrate and learning performance. Does your child have difficulty swallowing capsules? Then combine the Omega-3 liquid with Alfa Focus.
