Omega-3 oil for toddler meals: Grow Lab Genius New

Why I started keeping up with supplements while serving toddler meals

I used to hate babies with a passion, but now every night before bed I search for things our baby might need or something pretty to buy them, haha. From weaning foods to toddler meals, I make everything myself. That means the ingredients I use are limited, and if our baby does not eat well, I worry they will not get enough nutrients—so I add essential ingredients through supplements.

Since the newborn days, I have consistently given vitamin D and probiotics, and once daycare started, I added zinc to support immunity. Then I thought our baby seemed a little small, so I added a calcium supplement too!! We are still using all the products listed above, and this time I am going to try a brain nutrient supplement for our baby too!!

Considering omega-3 for a toddler instead of fish

The product I chose is Genius New, a brain nutrient supplement, and it contains a variety of ingredients said to be good for a baby's brain. From the later weaning-food stage, children should eat fish about twice a week to get omega-3 and DHA for brain development—but as you know, I feel uneasy about giving seafood freely these days because of radiation concerns.

Grow Lab Genius New is a brain nutrient supplement for babies who eat weaning foods and toddler meals. They say 93 out of 100 children in Korea lack DHA and ALA, components of the brain. It was made to support children's development, and in particular, the OloMega Baby Smart ingredient used in it has even appeared in articles as an ingredient for children's brain growth and development.

How to mix it into weaning food and snacks with the dropper

Grow Lab Genius New is a liquid oil omega-3 made with a 100% eco-friendly extraction method that is said to avoid worries about marine pollution, heavy metals, and radiation. With the included dropper, it is easy to mix into weaning food, toddler meals, or snacks such as purée and yogurt.

Genius New, which I picked out as a brain nutrient supplement for my toddler. I had been so torn over whether I should give fish for omega-3 intake, or avoid it because of radiation and heavy metals these days. Being able to give it as a product like this is convenient, and I like that it is said to contain better ingredients with a higher absorption rate.

When you open the product, there is another inner seal inside. Use the included opener to remove it hygienically and easily!

Then attach the dropper like this and mix it into weaning food, toddler meals, purée, milk, or yogurt whenever it is convenient! Since it is an oil, it is great for mixing into all kinds of foods, but its high absorption rate is a major advantage too 👍

Mixed into a 19-month-old's toddler-meal rice

I mixed it into our baby's toddler-meal rice. I worried that our baby might reject omega-3 because of its distinctive fishy smell, but no worries at all!! It was not fishy whatsoever; it had a wonderfully nutty aroma, like perilla oil or sesame oil, so our baby ate it well!! I did not have to coax or plead at all—I simply mixed the brain nutrient supplement into the rice, and our baby ate it with no resistance!!

And just like that, one whole bowl gone!! I am sure there are lots of moms serving weaning food and toddler meals who find it tiresome to make fish every time, or feel uneasy because of radiation. Like me, you could keep a separate brain nutrient supplement on hand for your baby—it seems nice because the ingredients are better and the absorption rate is higher too, so I recommend it^^ I will keep giving it consistently too!!
