Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is one of the most import omega-3 fatty acids and functions as an essential component of brain tissue. DHA is fundamental for cerebral growth throughout the lifecycle, especially during the crucial period of fetal development and infancy. Pregnant mothers transfer DHA directly to the fetus to facilitate rapid brain and eye growth. During infancy, DHA also nourishes the newborn via mother's breast milk and is essential for continued cerebral development. Many people have inadequate stores of DHA due to low-fat or vegetarian food choices which cannot provide optimal amounts of this nutrient through the diet. Supplementation with DHA can restore the blood concentration to acceptable levels and replenish depleted stores. DHA is an especially critical nutritional component for women during their childbearing years. Gelatin capsules contents are suitable for vegetarians and hypoallergenic.
