Nordic Naturals Baby's Dha, 2 -Ounce Overview

In the first year of life, the human brain more than doubles its size. During this period of rapid growth, the brain is especially sensitive to nutrition, particularly the omega-3 DHA. DHA is the primary building block of brain tissue, and adequate intake is essential for proper brain development, and remains necessary throughout life to maintain brain health. Baby’s DHA is made from 100% Arctic cod livers— no fish body oils or synthetic additives are ever used—and is rich in both EPA and DHA, as well as containing healthy levels of natural vitamins A and D. This safe and effective formula supports the proper development of the brain, eyes, and nervous and immune systems, and is third-party tested for purity and freshness. Read more

Although nowadays cross country or nordic skiing is viewed as the little sister of alpine skiing, it
should be the other way around. Alpine skiing wasn't invented until the 1930s, whereas cross country
skiing has been around for 4000 years, originating as a way for hunters to get around in
the Scandinavian mid winter.

Based on a natural walking motion, it's very easy to pick up. Novices that have "defected" from the
alpine slopes are often amazed that they can master the basic techniques on their first day,
compared with the days of painful sidestepping endured on the nursery slopes to learn to ski
downhill.

Nordic Naturals

As you don't need a ski lift to start, it's much easier to get off the beaten track. Skiers often
comment on the wonderful stillness of the forest in winter, where the only noise breaking the
silence is the gentle swoosh of their skis. In Scandinavia, ptarmigan and Arctic foxes are often
spotted on the trail; in Canada, moose sightings are common. It's also much kinder on the
environment, cross country trails are normally hiking or biking tracks in the summer whereas the
mountains are "scarred" with defunct chair lifts once the snow melts on the Alpine slopes.

And unlike downhill skiing, this is a sport that can last you a lifetime without taking a lifetime to learn.
A low impact aerobic exercise, there's no jarring of joints so grandchildren and grandparents can take
to the trails together.

How you do it

Moving forwards

There are two basic techniques - classic and skating. Classic is when you "push and glide" in pre-prepared tramlines carved into the snow. By placing your weight on one leg to push, you then glide forward on the ski that has no weight on it. By alternating this step you move forward easily in the tramlines that keep the tips of your skis straight, so it's ideal for beginners. The skating technique is favoured by more athletic, lycra clad types. It's based on the same push and glide idea, but here
how to do it you ski out of the tramlines and your ski tips are pushed out in opposite directions as you ski, like the opposite of a snow plough.

Going Uphill

Yes, you do ski uphill - but it's not as difficult as it sounds! To do this you can either side step
digging your ski edges in to stop you falling backwards, or make a V with your skis digging
your edges in and walk up this way. Remember there's bound to be a nice glide downwards at
the top.

Heeelp! I can't stop!

It's great when you're swooshing down the tramlines with no pushing needed, but
sometimes you'll want to ease off on the speed. To do this, either bend down and sit on your
skis, reducing your centre of gravity naturally slows you. Or take one ski out of the tramline
and use it as a brake. It's also possible to come out of the tramlines all together and do a full
snowplough as you would in alpine skiing.

What you'll need

Skis

Cross country skis are light and long - normally as tall as the skier using them - helping you move forwards easily. But you also need some friction to stop you sliding backwards. Favoured by beginners, waxless skis have a herringbone mesh to give you some grip. Aficionados prefer skis that need
coating with wax to give you some grip. By using different wax for the temperature, a waxed ski improves your glide as it creates just enough friction without slowing you down like a waxless ski can do in some snow conditions. But they're more fiddly!

Boots and bindings

Cross-country ski boots are like a trainer that allows your foot and ankle the full movement necessary to push you at the toe. Under the toe of the boot there's a clip that slots into a groove on the ski.

Poles

Ski poles come up to your shoulders, giving you the extra "push" needed to keep you gliding along.

Clothes

Unlike downhill skiing, no costly clothes are required. First timers can get by in a pair of jogging trousers with a pair of waterproof trousers over the top, a thermal vest, a fleece and a light waterproof over jacket. You'll also need a warm hat and a pair of sunglasses.
