7 year old lacks concentration, always tired. advice on vitamins needed .............

While the eyeQ product is very good it is terribly expensive for what it is. Zipvit do Omega Juice at £5.95 360ml which provides 900mg EPA and 600mg DHA 1.5g omega in each tsp. To get the same amount of omega from eyeq will cost considerably more than 8p daily. The proportion of EPA to DHA is more like that found in herring than in the Eyeq product which is unnaturally higher in the EPA (I think)

While I agree with the others he may just be tired I think, particularly as you mention the mosque, it could also be he is a bit short of vitamin d3 cholecalciferol. This is the sunshine vitamin and people with brown/black skins need 6 to 10 times the exposure to direct sunlight as white skinned folk. Towards the end of winter everyone will have drained their resources so taking a booster amount of vitamin D3 cholecalciferol would be good for the whole family.
There is a useful article about the importance of vitamin d here
