  1. Amazing Effects of Omega 3 DHA EPA A Complete Guide For Pregnancy And Newborns

  2. What are omega-3 fatty acids? Omega-3 fatty acids are a type of polyunsaturated fat. These types of fats and Omega 3 DHA EPA are essential to prenatal health because they can’t be produced by the body, so must be obtained from food or supplements. Omega-3 fatty acids are a vital part of the prenatal diet because they’re used in making hormones and cell membranes. 

  3. What’s the difference between ALA, EPA and DHA omega-3s? • There are three main omega-3 fatty acids: • alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) • eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) • docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) ALA is found in plants such as flaxseeds, walnuts, and soybeans. ALA needs to be converted to EPA and DHA before the body can use it. Not only does it take time for your body to convert ALA into EPA and DHA, but your body can only use about 2-3% of the ALA you consume. EPA is commonly found in fatty fish. It’s an active anti-inflammatory and is a precursor to DHA. EPA can be taken as a supplement alone or combined with DHA for a full prenatal omega-3 formula. DHA is a long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid that our bodies cannot produce on their own; we must get it from food or supplements, such as fish or algae oil. DHA is the main form of omega-3 used by the body during prenatal development.

  4. Why is omega-3 DHA important for pregnant women? During pregnancy, DHA is particularly important for the formation of cell membranes in the placenta, brain, retina and other tissues. The developing child has a high demand for DHA during critical periods throughout gestation. These periods of high demand occur as gestation progresses and the child’s brain grows rapidly.

  5. Why is omega-3 DHA important for postnatal mothers? After childbirth, DHA can help to reduce inflammation and promote mood balance by reducing stress hormone levels in the body. Research suggests that DHA can help with mood disorders such as postpartum depression that can sometimes be exacerbated by hormonal changes associated with childbirth.
