Best Back to School Supplements

Help your kids start the school year on the right foot! Help your kids improve focus, concentration, learning, and stress tolerance with high quality nutrition. Here are the most important nutrients for brain health. 

DHA for Brain Health and Eyesight

The brain is one of the fattiest organs in the body and will build its structure out of whatever types of fat are in the diet. Imagine the ability of a brain made of French fries, chips, and other junk food! DHA, a component of fish oil, is the most desirable fat for cognitive function, learning, and eyesight development. DHA is excellent for children of all ages to support optimal brain function and development. Wellness Resources DHA supplements are mercury-free.*

Coenzyme B Vitamins and Folate

High quality coenzyme B vitamins are essential for brain development and growth. B vitamins support proper energy production, stress tolerance, and nerve health. Folate helps mental clarity and mood. A study with infants found that as folate and B12 levels went up, so did scores on the mental development index.*

PhoshpatidylSerine for Focus

PhosphatidylSerine (PS) is an essential building block nutrient for healthy, alive, and functional brain cells. It helps improve focus, concentration, and memory. Students may take PS to assist learning and help relieve stress associated with an upcoming test.*

Minerals for Sleep and Relaxation

Calcium and magnesium are the most basic minerals needed for relaxation and restful sleep. Many children do not get enough minerals in the diet and this can be helpful to supplement.

Coral Calcium is a powder with calcium and magnesium that you just mix into water. Tri-Cal is a calming calcium formula, helpful to relax nerves without making you drowsy. Great taken at bedtime and may be taken during the day as well. RelaxaMag is also a very popular supplement for sleep as well as daytime relaxation. It is a highly absorbable magnesium bound to relaxing amino acids.*

Please note, we do not recommend Melatonin for children. The production of melatonin declines with age, and is typically more useful for adults. Starting with the basic minerals is the best place to start for children.
