General Nutrient Support
DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) is a polyunsaturated fatty acid, and is an essential building block of brain and
nerve tissue. DHA can not be synthesized by the body, and therefore must be obtained from diet high in
deep-sea cold water fish.
DHA, which constitutes approximately 40% of the brain, supports brain development during the last trimester
of pregnancy when the unborn child's demand for neurological growth increases greatly. If added to the
mother's diet, it can help prevent the depletion of the mother's store of DHA, and support the developing
baby's essential fatty acid needs. Currently, the proposed Adequate Intake of DHA for pregnant and
lactating women is 300 mg. per day. (ISSFAL)
Importance of DHA during Pregnancy and while Nursing:
- DHA is a critical nutrient for the healthy development of a baby
- Provides mood and nerve support for mothers
- Supports proper development of the brain, eyes and nervous system
Clinical investigations are continually carried out on the importance of DHA and Omega-3 fatty
acids in health and disease.
