Each capsule provides 300mg of DHA, the level recommended by international experts for mothers during lactation *.
Maternal intake of DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) contributes to the normal development of the brain and eyes of breastfed infants **. Infants have a limited ability to synthesize fatty acids, which must therefore be obtained directly from external sources such as breast milk.
During breastfeeding, the infant's brain continues to receive DHA, and 15% of brain development occurs after birth. It contains the purest pharmaceutical grade fish oil, certified for its shelf life by Friend of the Sea.
*Journal of the American College of Nutrition, Vol. 18, No. 5, 487-489 (1999)
** A beneficial effect is achieved with a daily intake of 200mg of DHA in addition to the recommended daily intake of omega-3 fatty acids for adults.
