A pure fish oil specifically designed for children.
Super Hero Omega 3 Lemon Fish Oil for Kids by Bare Biology provides all the Omega-3 that growing bodies need and is suitable for children from 6 months to 12 years. Omega 3 is essential for growing brains, eyes and bodies but with the best will in the world, it can be tricky to get kids to eat plates of oily fish. This supplement is natural, pure, and its mild lemony flavour tastes great. Up to 3 months supply.
Why Action Heroes Omega 3 is the best: Fussy eaters? Always paranoid they’re not getting enough of those key nutrients? One of the many stresses of parenthood. When it comes to ‘brain food’, Omega 3 is the original super food. For your little ones to benefit from an Omega 3 supplement, it must have enough DHA (crucial for brain and eye development) and EPA, the two most important Omegas which you’ll find plenty of in Action Heroes (previously Super Hero).
Omega 3 content per dose: one drop (1ml) has 500mg DHA and 130mg EPA.
Please note: For children over 12 a higher ratio of EPA to DHA is better so you could try our Lion Heart Fish Oil.
Made from Wild, Sustainably Caught Fish: We only work with Norwegian fisheries and manufacturers certified by both Friends of the Sea and Marin Trust, the global responsible supply standard.
We never use farmed fish and we also only use small fish such as anchovies, sardines and mackerel because they’re right at the bottom of the food chain, meaning they contain fewer heavy metals and other pollutants. Our fish oils don’t contain iodine.
IFOS Certified For Peace Of Mind: Every batch is independently tested on top of the two sets of tests we carry out. This is our promise the oils we use are pure, fresh and safe. Our results for Action Heroes (previously Super Hero) Fish Oil are published below.
Easily Digested: With no fishy aftertaste, Action Heroes comes in its natural triglyceride form which also makes it easier for the body to absorb.
How much to take: 1ml is perfect for most age groups. See the INSTRUCTIONS tab above for more info.
Calories per dose: 12
How long a bottle lasts: 100ml bottle last 3 months if one child takes 1ml a day.
Packaging: 100% recyclable glass bottle.
Action Heroes (previously Super Hero) is pure as pure can be, with no unnecessary ingredients like sugary flavourings:
Natural triglyceride-form fish oil from sardines, anchovies and mackerel (smaller fish with fewer contaminants)
Natural Sicilian lemon oil to give it a lovely taste
A tiny amount of Vitamin E (tocopherol) to naturally preserve
Each 1ml dose (100 per bottle) contains 500mg DHA & 130mg EPA. Action Heroes is made in Norway, and flavoured and bottled in the UK. Our fish are sustainably sourced from clean, wild waters and FOS & IFFO-RS certified fisheries. Please remember that even with supplements like this one, children still need to run and play and eat their greens. Action Heroes is marvellous, but it isn’t magic. And it’s always good to check with your doctor before using supplements like this one if your child:
is on any medication, such as blood thinners
is about to have surgery
has health concerns or conditions

Or you may want to switch to Life & Soul liquid – it’s stronger and has a better EPA to DHA ratio for this age group. It’s best to give Action Heroes to children at mealtimes. It’s easier to make it a fun habit this way, and the Omega 3 is better absorbed alongside food. Action Heroes tastes great – you can just pop a drop into your child’s mouth straight from the syringe. For the very reluctant, just mix it into anything cold: juice, a smoothie, yogurt or salad dressing. Keep your bottle in the fridge once you’ve opened it.
Love this stuff. My 2 year old has (removed by moderator due to medical condition) and taking this daily really seems to help. It obviously tastes nice as he’s very happy to take his superhero vitamins! It’s also nice to know he’s getting the omegas as not always sure he eats enough oily fish etc.
My son has been taking this since he was 9 months on recommendation from one of the naturedoc team to help with (medical condition removed by moderator).It made such a difference that we continue to use it daily still and he is 19 months , he seems to enjoy the flavour.
We have just received our second order of this, our son absolutely loves it! When we say vitamin time he comes running!! Although it seems expensive the bottle lasts 3 months, so is actually quite economic, in any event it is worth the price. We have tried other fish oil before and H has just spat them out, so delighted to have found this product.
Fantastic product – my two have been taking it for a good few months now and their (removed by moderator due to medical claims) so fingers crossed it continues!
My son has just started taking the supplement so I cannot comment on a long term effect but I can say that it tastes great as he is really willing to take it.
The cutoff for same-day dispatch on weekdays is usually 4pm, but if we’re busy, it could be earlier. 3:45pm is pretty safe. We also usually dispatch on Saturdays, and the cutoff is around noon. Obviously, for bank holidays, we will dispatch the next business day.
UK Shipping Info
Standard shipping is £2.50, or FREE when you spend over £30. This is Royal Mail 2nd Class. The next level up is Royal Mail 1st Class and costs £3.50. It’s FREE on orders over £100. The tracked versions of these services are £1 more, and Royal Mail prioritises them, so when they are at really busy, such as during a lockdown, Christmas, or the day after a weekend or bank holiday, the tracked parcels are more likely to arrive on time, while the untracked parcels can be left looking sad in a pile in the corner.
All parcels are delivery confirmed or tracked, and you will get the tracking link in your email confirmation when we dispatch. Parcels over £200 are signed-for too. For very heavy orders, we may use a different courier.
International Shipping
For countries we ship to, international shipping varies by parcel weight. But it starts at just £4.95 for Europe if you spend over £50 (£13.50 if you spend under £50). We don’t currently give prices for parcels over 2kg as they can be very expensive to some countries. If you are interested, contact us for a personalised quote. In many cases you will find it cheaper to split your order into two! We ship to very few countries other than Europe. The system won’t let you order if it’s not set up. We don’t ship to North America (sorry folks, it’s to do with regulatory and legal risk, as well as insurance limitations), but we are prepared to look at adding other countries by request.
We only ship by air on tracked and signed services.
