Omega 3 organic WCM?

I just noticed the milk I bought for Nora has Omega 3 added to it. Should I not let her have it? I didn't notice until now.

Re: Omega 3 organic WCM?

  • I don't think it will do any harm.  I just don't think it's been proven to anything.  My prenatals have DHA.

    Thanks for the link- that is interesting!  I real read it in more depth, but what I did read was intriguing.  I struggled getting Nora to drink WCM until I gave her organic.  She has a taste preference for organic.  I can't bring it to myself to try them for the taste difference.  I am not a huge milk fan, especially if it is that heavy.

  • As a side note... I have a milk addiction when I am pregnant.  I never drink it otherwise.  I have been drinking Brooke's Organic WCM and really can say that it tastes better and is much richer.  Which is probably why the babies like it.  :)

    I just put chocolate in mine. 

  • Maybe I'm an idiot, but why would you not want her to have Omega 3s?

    Like anything...  it COULD be bad for you.  https://articles.nydailynews.com/2012-05-07/news/31614456_1_omega-3-supplements-fatty-acids

    So I think the idea is that you probably don't need to supplement, but if it's naturally existing, then it's good for you.

    Like I said, my prenatals have DHA and I'm not stopping those.  I think giving WCM with Omega 3 in it is probably fine.  I might get then non-Omega-3-added version next time though.

  • i drink the omega 3 organic non-fat milk (Horizon Organic) and asked the pedi if it was okay to give DD the WCM omega 3 version.  She said it was absolutely fine and did not hesitate to give me the green light on it.

  • She is smart. Organic milk does taste way better
