DHA and EPA are long-chain omega-3 fatty acids found in cell membranes throughout the body. DHA is especially concentrated in brain and eye tissue, which is why omega-3 intake matters during periods of growth and development.†
Our goal wasn’t simply to put “omega-3” on the front of a box. It was to provide a meaningful daily amount of DHA + EPA in a format kids could realistically take.
A meaningful daily serving in one chew, with the key omega-3 amounts clearly listed.
DHA is an important structural omega-3 found in brain and eye tissue and plays a role in normal development.†
EPA is another important long-chain omega-3 that complements DHA as part of overall omega-3 intake and status.†
We focus on the actual DHA + EPA amounts rather than using a token amount simply to make an omega-3 claim.
We paid attention to more than the number on the front of the box. The source and quality of the oil mattered too.
EPAX has specialized in marine ingredients for more than 180 years and focuses on purity, quality, and innovation in omega-3 concentrates.
EPAX states that its crude fish oils are made from wild-caught fish selected against predefined quality criteria.
EPAX states that the crude fish oil used in its products is Friend of the Sea certified — an added sustainability standard applied to the marine source.

As a pediatrician and a mom, omega-3 was one of the nutrients I cared about getting right.
The challenge wasn’t finding products that said “omega-3.” It was finding something with meaningful DHA + EPA that my kids would actually take consistently.
We tried liquids. They made sense on paper, but in our house, getting kids to take fish oil every day became the problem.
So I wanted a substantial omega-3 serving, clearly listed amounts, a carefully selected source, and a format that could actually become part of family life.
That’s why we made Healthy Brain Chews.

TESTING & TRANSPARENCY
We believe parents should be able to review independent finished-batch testing.
Finished-batch testing for Healthy Brain Chews will be posted here when the December batch is released.
Each chew provides 506 mg total omega-3 fatty acids, including 305 mg DHA and 125 mg EPA.
We list the actual DHA and EPA amounts—not just an “omega-3” statement on the front of the package—so you can see exactly what your child is getting.
Each chew provides 506 mg total omega-3 fatty acids. That includes 305 mg DHA, 125 mg EPA, and 76 mg of other omega-3 fatty acids. We show DHA and EPA separately so parents can see exactly how much of each is included.
DHA is a major building block of the brain and eyes. EPA is the other main marine omega-3. Children get both mainly from fatty fish, so kids who rarely eat fish often get very little.†
Ages 4 and up: 1 chew daily. May take 2 chews daily or as directed by a healthcare professional.
Each box contains 60 individually sealed chews: a 2-month supply at 1 chew daily, or a 1-month supply at 2 chews daily.
The chew format makes a substantial omega-3 serving easier to work into a child’s daily routine without requiring a large fish-oil softgel.
We also tried liquid omega-3 products with our own kids, but found them hard to keep in a consistent routine. A chew lets us deliver meaningful amounts of DHA and EPA in a format kids will actually take.
No added sugar. Each chew is sweetened with xylitol and sorbitol and has a Passion Fruit Citrus flavor.
Taste matters—especially with omega-3. We use approximately 0.4 g of xylitol per chew to help make Healthy Brain Chews enjoyable for kids without adding sugar.
One safety note: xylitol is toxic to dogs, so keep chews and wrappers away from pets.
As with every ingredient in Dr. Good’s Essentials, we believe in being transparent about what’s inside and why it’s there.
EPAX has a long history specializing in marine ingredients and a focus on omega-3 quality and purity, which is why we chose its oil.
Friend of the Sea is an independent program focused on responsible marine sourcing. EPAX reports that the crude fish oil used in its products is Friend of the Sea certified. This refers to the oil’s sourcing; it is not a separate certification of the finished Healthy Brain Chew.
Omega-3 oils are sensitive to oxygen, light, and moisture. Individual sealing helps protect freshness and product quality until the chew is opened.
Yes. Our Multi and Healthy Brain Chews are designed as daily essentials that work together: the Multi provides broad vitamin and mineral support, and the chews provide DHA + EPA omega-3s.
Both contain vitamin D, so here’s the math for ages 4+. Two scoops of the Multi plus 1 chew provides 22.5 mcg (900 IU) of vitamin D. With 2 chews, it’s 32.5 mcg (1,300 IU). Both are well under the 75 mcg (3,000 IU) upper limit for ages 4–8.
If your child also takes a separate vitamin D supplement, add that in too, and ask your pediatrician if you’re unsure.
Yes. Healthy Brain Chews contain fish (anchovy, sardine, mackerel, tuna, herring) and bovine gelatin, so they are not vegetarian or vegan. Review the package ingredient and allergen statements before use if your child has food allergies.
We started Dr. Good’s Essentials because we wanted better options for our own family: carefully built formulas, ingredients and amounts we could explain, practical formats kids could actually use, and a brand parents could trust without needing a nutrition degree to understand it.
Serious nutrition made easy enough for real family life.

Vitamin D is important, but more is not automatically better. Dr. Katie Good explains food, sun exposure, recommended intakes, and why individual context matters.
