DHA. EPA and DHA are needed for brain development. They occur
together in nature and human cells, and should be taken in this
natural tandem form.
How
much fish oil: DHA
DHA
(docosahexaenoic acid) is a polyunsaturated fatty acid found in
deep-sea cold water fish. DHA is an essential nutrient for proper
brain, nervous system, and visual function and must be obtained
through the diet. A healthy balance of DHA is essential to properly
care for the brain throughout life, particularly during the early
stages of development.
A
high concentration of DHA can be found in mother's breast milk.
However, the level is directly related to the amount of Omega-3
fatty acids that are consumed in the mother's diet. Due to refined
foods and trendy diets, many individuals have reduced their intake
of the dietary sources of Omega-3 fatty acids, contributing to lower
levels of DHA in breast milk. The impact of low DHA intake on
neurological function of adults and children is the subject of
ongoing clinical investigations.
