DHA is not in cow’s milk, but is in mothers breast milk, thats why many physicians recommend breast feeding or at least the use of supplementation of DHA oil for children.
DHA, is an omega 3 essential fatty acid, one of the primary building blocks of the brain and the eyes, DHA Oil ensures optimal composition of cells in the brain, retinal tissue, heart, and parts of the nervous system. It is also needed for proper cell communication as cells transport electrical currents that send messages throughout the body.
DHA’s role in proper growth and development is critical, therfore it is especially important to developing fetuses and young infants. From the last trimester of pregnancy and through the first two years of infancy (and even beyond) DHA levels in the brain rapidly increase and in order to sustain this neural development, DHA must be obtained through a healthy diet or supplementation.
60% of the brain is made up of fat with about 36% being DHA alone. A deficit in this essential fatty acid will therfore be a limiting factor in brain development and cognitive capacity.
