Back-to-School Health Hacks for a Successful and Sane School Year!

As any parent knows, kids are already prone to getting sick. This problem only intensifies when the kids go to school and mingle with others, picking up germs all the while. Fortunately, there are things you can do to keep the risk minimal. You can ensure your kids stay healthy during the school year by encouraging several good habits and taking preventive measures.

What's important to prepare your child for success at school is to make sure they are as healthy as possible when they sit down to learn. That means ensuring they eat and sleep well and can healthily recharge after school to prepare for the next day.

As students and their parents prepare to go back to school, it's essential to prioritize health and well-being. Here are some health tips for both kids and parents:

Why Children (and Parents) Need Omega-3's for Optimal Brain Health!

Your brain needs specific nutrients—including omega-3 fatty acids—in order to function properly. When you're deficient in those nutrients, it might affect your ability to remember things, learn, etc. There may be mental health implications as well, so it's important to make sure you treat your brain well.

Omega-3s can affect brain health in a few ways, which are explained below.

Omega-3s and Brain Health

Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to support brain development and cognitive function. One type of omega-3 called DHA is particularly important, with DHA levels being 250 to 300 times higher in the brain than EPA (another type of omega-3). Omega-6 fatty acids also have a strong presence in the brain, but most people get enough of those in their diet normally.

Switching to a Healthy Diet Makes Kids Smarter

Does the Gut Microbiome Play a Role?

By Ross Pelton, RPh, CCN, PhD
Scientific Director for Essential Formulas

In this article, I will review a classic nutritional study titled: The impact of a low food additive and sucrose diet on academic performance in 803 New York City public schools, published in 1991. My purpose in reviewing this study is to propose a microbiome-based explanation for the improved academic performance that the children achieved.

Stephen Schoenthaler, Ph.D., obtained funding and permission to improve the quality of food served in the breakfast and lunch meals provided in 803 New York City public schools for four years, from 1979 to 1983. During these four years, over one million children ate either one or two meals a day at school, five days a week.

Learn Why Essential ME-3 is a Vital Supplement for
Optimal Glutathione Support

Glutathione is the body's "Master Antioxidant." It is used by every cell in the human body, and maintaining optimal levels is crucial to continuing healthy liver function and detoxification processes, robust immune system responses, and even supporting cardiovascular health. Like all the REG'ACTIV® formulas, ESSENTIAL ME-3 contains the glutathione-boosting probiotic Lactobacillus fermentum ME-3 and remains the only probiotic strain proven to increase glutathione levels cost-effectively. ESSENTIAL ME-3 releases glutathione directly into the intestines, bypassing the normal digestive breakdown and ensuring the availability of more glutathione to the body.

The current REG'ACTIV® Formulas contain added ingredients to address specific health concerns and require two capsules to receive 6 billion viable bacteria. ESSENTIAL ME-3's vegan formula focuses solely on providing 8 billion viable bacteria in only one capsule. This makes this formula an ideal addition to any healthcare or daily regimen.
