Reasons to Buy Spectrum Essentials Children's DHA with Vitamin D Chewable Softgels, 90 Count Bottle

Product Description

At Spectrum, we work with talented, dedicated people to create the best products possible, and using processes that are gentle to both the planet and our bodies. Our passionate commitment leads us to craft great-tasting oils to help people live healthier lives. Since its founding in 1986, Spectrum has been both a category leader and an industry innovator. Most significant is Spectrum's contribution to the market for products containing omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids (EFA's), commonly known as "good fat" because they support heart health, as well as the hair, skin and nails. In addition to traditional fish sources of omega-3, Spectrum has led the industry with flaxseed products that offer a comparably effective vegetarian alternative to fish oil. There are no trans fats in any Spectrum product and no hydrogenated fats are used. As a science-based company, Spectrum sets the industry standard for accurate nutritional analysis and labeling of its products. The company's commitment to product integrity begins in the orchards and farms where it sources raw materials and extends to the processing facilities. We are proud to serve your family the best that science and nature can provide.

Chewable?? Not!
By CPhil
This product is NOT chewable, unless you typically chow down on a gel vitamin. Also, the product description tells you the amount of DHA per serving but does not tell you the serving size. It is 4 pills! I dare anyone to get their toddler to eat 4 oil-filled gelcaps. I tried them myself and couldn't believe how long I was chewing on the outer coating before I was finally able to swallow. How is it that the same brand can get the same amount of DHA in 1 dropper-ful of oil in the toddler liquid formula?

Not vegetarian
By Squeaks
My daughter likes the flavor well enough, but she spits out the chewy part of the softgel because she says it's nasty. It's just as well since it's made from gelatin. I wish someone made a truly vegetarian chewable DHA option for kids (and adults) who don't like to swallow pills.

Perfect, except they are not vegetarian (contain gelatin)
By Jen
These taste good. My only complaint is that the whole reason I wanted a non-fish source DHA is because I'm vegetarian. If they would just make these without gelatin, they would be perfect. Why Spectrum, why????
