Equazen® Baby®

Providing essential fatty acid supplementation to help support healthy brain development in babies.

Equazen® Baby

Early supplementation of Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) helps provide a balanced amount of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids that may not be found in diet alone.

 

Equazen® Baby twist caps are a proactive way of providing EFA supplementation to your baby to help support healthy development of brain and eye function.

It’s important to consider Equazen® Baby because:

Brain growth <sup>1</sup>

Brain growth 1

The brain grows rapidly during the first 2 years of life where it becomes nearly 80% the size of the adult brain

The brain needs EFAs <sup>2</sup>

The brain needs EFAs 2

Approximately 60% of the brains’ weight consists of fats, of which about 30% are polyunsaturated fatty acids (such as EFAs)

Supports structural development of brain <sup>3</sup>

Supports structural development of brain 3

DHA, an EFA, is important for structural development of the brain and peripheral nervous system

Research & Evidence

Equazen® Baby: Key Ingredients

Omega-3 and Omega 6 are essential fatty acids that are vital for good health. Since your body is unable to produce some of these essential fatty acids, they must be obtained through your diet.4 Equazen contains proven ingredients to help support the development of cognitive functions in babies. EPA, DHA and GLA all play an important role in brain development.2

Food for thought: Did you know that nutrition is the most influential non-genetic factor of brain development? Adding Equazen baby early in life will supplement your baby's essential fatty acids needs and support early brain development.
