Benefits of sardines for children

Sardines are an excellent food supplement for children

Small, oily fish are one of the best seafood sources of omega-3 fatty acids, including DHA, which promote cardiovascular health, central nervous system development, cell growth and healthy vision. They are also rich in protein, all essential amino acids and vitamin B12 for healthy blood and nervous system development, as well as other B vitamins for energy production. Sardines are one of the few natural sources of vitamin D, which babies and toddlers need for healthy bone growth. This fish also contains vitamin E for cell protection, selenium for immune function, iron for healthy blood and calcium for strong bones.
