Product Review

Dietary supplement for the brain. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an omega-3 fatty acid and functions as an important component of brain tissue. DHA plays a significant role in cerebral development throughout the life cycle, especially during the crucial period of fetal development and infancy. Pregnant mothers transfer DHA directly to the fetus, via the placenta, to support rapid brain and retina development. During infancy, DHA is also supplied to the newborn via mother's breast milk and is important for continued cerebral development. Some people have lower concentrations of DHA due to low-fat or vegetarian diets which may provide inadequate amounts of this fatty acid. Supplementation with DHA can help assure adequate amounts to support normal development of the brain and retina. (These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Dug Administration.
