ADA, Mich. (PRWEB) August 22, 2006 -- Quixtar reports the dramatic increase in the weight of our Nation's children is leading parents to increasingly seek tasty alternatives to high calorie foods. And as anyone who has tried to talk their child out of yet another hot dog dinner knows, kids just won't eat what doesn't taste good. Instead of fighting them to eat what they should, Nutrilite® and Seismic™ give kids the support they need in delicious flavors they'll love.

Nutrilite Kids Brainiums DHA Nutrilite Kids Brainiums DHA, the first and only DHA gummy dietary supplement on the market, is now available in two flavors – lemon and new fruit punch. Nutrilite Kids Brainiums contain the essential omega-3 fatty acids that the body uses most, DHA and EPA. Studies show that adequate DHA helps support optimal memory, learning, and concentration. EPA supports physical health within joints for mobility and flexibility. These omega-3 fatty acids are considered essential for optimal health, but can't be manufactured by the body, so kids and adults need to get them from another source.

Omega-3s are abundant in ocean fish, but many people in North America don't eat a lot of fish. Kids especially tend to avoid fish – unless it's in the form of sticks – and the average American diet contains less than 200 mg of EPA and DHA. According to experts, those of us not currently consuming at least two meals of fatty fish per week may benefit from a supplement rich in DHA. Many DHA supplements, however, come in liquid form and have a fishy taste. With no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives, and nothing fishy to mix, stir, or drink, Brainiums DHA is easy to eat, for kids and adults alike.

Seismic Super Snacks Seismic Super Snacks offer more snack options that kids will love and parents can feel good about. Low in sugar and simple carbs, new Seismic Pizza Puffs come in 120-calorie packages that can be easily tossed in a lunchbox or backpack. Low in total fat and saturated fat, and containing no trans fat, each tasty little puff is heart healthy and high in soy protein. Protein builds up, maintains, and replaces body tissues. Soy protein is derived from soybeans and is one of the highest-quality proteins available. Soy contains the essential amino acids we need to get through our diets because our bodies can't produce them.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) found that diets low in saturated fat and cholesterol that include 25 grams of soy protein a day may reduce the risk of heart disease. One serving of Seismic Pizza Puffs provides 8 grams of soy protein.
