Omega-3 for you and your child

Both during and after pregnancy, it is recommended that the mother gets enough omega-3 1  through her diet, but if you don’t eat enough fatty fish, the dietary supplement Romega can give you the omega-3 fatty acids you and your baby need.

– Many pregnant women have periods of nausea during pregnancy, and then you may not always feel like eating fatty fish. Romega is a product with a high content of DHA and is therefore a good and safe alternative to cover the recommended daily intake of DHA of 200 mg during pregnancy. Romega also does not cause fish regurgitation, says product manager at Arctic Bioscience, Dr. Thomas Ringheim-Bakka.

Omega-3 for you and your child

The omega-3 fatty acid DHA is an important building block in the brain and the retina of the eye, an adequate intake of DHA is therefore beneficial for the development of these organs in the foetus.

– What distinguishes Romega from many other products is the content of omega-3 phospholipids. Phospholipids are a type of fat found naturally in all cell membranes in the body and which can be mixed with water. The latter is something that can contribute to the absorption of omega-3 in the body, says Ringheim-Bakka.

Sustainable source of DHA

Romega was developed by Arctic Nutrition and is a dietary supplement produced from herring roe from Norwegian spring-spawning herring. The product has been developed by our chemists in Norway and the company analyzes all production, so customers will receive a product of very high quality.

– I am a chemist myself and take pride in offering our customers a unique and safe omega-3 product. The product is based on the roe we get from herring that run in shoals just off the Møre coast – which makes Romega one of Norway’s most sustainable sources of omega-3 and contains three times more DHA than EPA, says Ringheim-Bakka.

Birgitte swears by Romega during pregnancy and breastfeeding

The nutritional supplement is already a favorite among many pregnant women, and mother of young children Birgitte says that she has used Romega during both pregnancy and breastfeeding.

– When I was pregnant, I wanted a high-quality omega-3 supplement, which was both good for me and the children in my belly, and which was also easy to take, says Birgitte.

She goes on to say that she discovered Romega and has only had good experiences with the product.

– I started taking Romega, and discovered that it neither gave me fish regurgitation nor made me nauseous. It is therefore very easy to let Romega become part of everyday life when you are pregnant and struggling to take nutritional supplements due to nausea.

Birgitte is concerned about what she gets through her diet and she therefore makes sure she gets enough omega-3, and especially the essential fatty acid DHA.

– I am still breastfeeding both my twins, which makes me extra concerned with what I eat. What I get through my diet will also affect them, and I know that DHA contributes to the development of the children’s brain and eyes. The fact that Romega contains a lot of DHA is very positive.

– I am confident in Romega as a product, and know that it does my children good.

Birgitte is clear that she will also continue with Romega, even after she has finished breastfeeding.

 – The fact that Romega is good for my own health means that I will continue with it, concludes Birgitte.

1) The Norwegian Directorate of Health recommends pregnant and breastfeeding women a daily intake of at least 200 mg of the omega-3 fatty acid DHA.
