What is DHA and how does it help in my child’s development?

DHA is a long chain omega 3 fatty acid. This major lipid that occurs in the brain is essential for normal brain development and its function. Studies have shown improvement in toddlers’ cognition, learning, reasoning and behavior as a result of DHA supplementation.

 

DHA is also responsible for executive and higher order cognitive activities such as planning, problem solving and focused attention. DHA also supports IQ and memory. DHA is particularly important in early childhood for early brain and visual development.
