Eskimo Brain 369 provides the same premium, pure and fresh fish oil used in the original Eskimo-3 products, but has been combined with specific, active ingredients to help support brain health. Comprising over 90% of the omega-3 fatty acids in your brain, DHA has been shown to support brain function, and a minimum of 250mg is recommended by the European Food Safety Authority daily for good brain health and vision. Omega-3 fatty acids are considered essential as your body cannot make them so they need to obtained from food. Surprisingly, according to an IPSOS/MRBI survey, a massive 89% of Irish people are not consuming enough oily fish (e.g., sardines, anchovies) in their diet, so there is often a need to supplement. Taking 4 capsules daily provides EPA and DHA roughly equivalent to 3 portions of oily fish per week. If you don’t consume many foods rich in healthy fats such as nuts, seeds, avocado, olive oil etc. then Eskimo Brain 369 is a good option. Omega-6 from evening primrose oil is rich in linoleic acid & GLA which is vital for cellular communication in the brain. Also provides a variety of antioxidants to keep the product fresh and stable. Eskimo-3 always uses reliable, sustainable fishing sources and has a Friend of the Sea Certification.

Yes, there are two overlapping nutrients. These are vitamin D3 and vitamin E. Eskimo Brain 369 contain 5ug vitamin D3 (100% NRV). Most multivitamins contain 10ug vitamin D3. According to The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA) at Trinity College Dublin, it is recommended that adults get 10 to 20 ug vitamin D per day via diet or supplementation to maintain adequate levels. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) advise adults can tolerate up to 100ug but that high level is not advised. By combining a multi-vitamin with Eskimo Brain 369, you will be consuming approximately 15 to 25ug vitamin D3, so this is perfectly safe. Our Eskimo-3 products provide between 4.6mg and 13mg vitamin E, an antioxidant to keep the oil fresh. Most multivitamins provide between 40 and 100mg vitamin E. However, EFSA state that adults can tolerate up to 300mg vitamin E daily, so there is no safety issue in combining your chosen Eskimo-3 product with a multi-vitamin. Yes, it is perfectly fine to combine any of the Eskimo-3 range with a probiotic. No interaction exists. Yes, there are two overlapping nutrients. These are vitamin D and vitamin E. Within Eskimo-3 Kids, there is 5ug vitamin D3 (100% NRV). Most children’s multivitamins contain 5ug to 10ug vitamin D3. Children and Teens should be getting approximately 15ug daily, so this is perfect. The European Food Safety Authority state that children can tolerate up to 50ug daily 1 to 10 years old or 100ug for 11 years old plus, so there is no need to worry as only both products provide approximately 15ug combined. Also Eskimo-3 Kids contains 6.5mg vitamin E, an antioxidant to keep the oil fresh. Most children’s multivitamins provides between 10 to 16mg vitamin E. However, the safe upper limits set by EFSA start at 100mg daily for 1 to 3 year old. Therefore, there is no issue taking both supplements together. Yes, it is perfectly fine to combine Eskimio-3 Kids with a probiotic. No interaction exists. The abbreviation RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) has been commonly used on food supplement labels for decades. In recent years, this term has been replaced with NRV which is an abbreviation for ‘Nutrient Reference Value’. NRV’s are set for 13 vitamins and 14 minerals for the purposes of food labelling and are EU guidance levels on the daily amount of vitamin or mineral that the average healthy person needs to prevent deficiency. Food supplement labels list the ingredients included in the product and give the proportion of the NRV value (% NRV) that is contained within the supplement e.g. Vitamin D, 10ug, 200% NRV.
