Take Your Omega 3 Supplements in Candy Form
Sweeten the deal with omega 3 supplements
We all know that omega 3 supplements are important. Still, there are many people who just don't like taking pills. And who can blame them -- they're difficult to swallow, you have to remember to pop them at the right times, and they're expensive.
The idea of chewable omega 3 supplements sounds like a great idea until you consider that this is fish oil we're talking about. If you've ever tried to disguise the taste by dropping omega 3 pills into a smoothie, you know what I'm talking about: the taste of fish tends to overpower pretty much anything it comes into contact with.
So what's a person to do? Well fortunately, there are some new easy options in the form of omega supplements candy!
Sweet and tasty omega supplements
How on earth is this possible? Well, scientists have discovered ways to get omega 3 benefits without the taste. There are actually quite a few brands out there marketing chewable omega 3 candies, ranging from soft chews to gummy bears. You might be imagining something with a terrible taste, but actually most of these 'candies' taste quite good -- just like the real thing.
This is fantastic news for people who really hate omega 3 pills, adults or children. For children, of course, it's an excellent way to give them a healthy 'treat' while making sure they get their daily omega intake. For adults, it's pretty much the same: a sweet treat at the end of the day that you don't have to feel even a bit guilty about.
Yes, candy contains sugar, and omega supplements are unfortunately no exception. But really, we're talking a pretty minimal amount here. Check the label for ingredients and sugar content and you'll find that you're not looking at anything that's going to break your diet. On the contrary, since you'll feel like you're getting a bit of a daily treat, you'll be more likely to stick to healthy eating the rest of the time.
Where to find them
So now that you're sold on chewable omega 3 supplements, where on earth can you find the things? Chances are they're right under your nose and you just didn't realize it. There are numerous brands and types of candy, so pretty much any health food store will carry these omega 3 supplements. In fact, many grocery stores carry them in the health food department too, along with a number of drug stores.
If you really can't find them locally, though, it's a cinch to buy your omega 3 candy online. Stores like GNC or Brightspot carry all sorts of supplements, sweet omega 3s included, and will ship them for a reasonable price (Brightspot also carries candies with calcium and probiotics).
These days there are more and more options for eating healthy and getting the nutrients you need, so if you've always hated taking your omega 3 supplements, your life is about to change!
