Description
It is now becoming increasingly acknowledged that the ratio EPA to DHA contained in fish oils is relatively unimportant compared to the provision of sufficient of these two fatty acids combined. This is because it is now recognized that the designation of DHA as the structural omega-3 fatty acid and EPA as the anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acid is too simplistic. It is now known that DHA has significant anti-inflammatory capability, and EPA is being demonstrated to have a role in cognitive and behavioral functions of the brain.
However, in the area of brain development in the fetus and neonate, and the implications this has on the fatty acid status of the mother, the evidence clearly demonstrates that it is desirable to provide a balance of fatty acids strongly biased towards DHA.
Studies show that a minimum daily intake of 1,100mg of DHA and an optimum of 2,400mg per day is required during the first and second trimesters—and a minimum of 2,400mg and optimum of 3,600mg of DHA in the third rimester of pregnancy. Similarly, during the breast feeding period, a minimum daily intake of DHA of 1,100mg is necessary to ensure optimal DHA deposition into the brain and neural tissues of the neonate. In addition, these advised levels of intake during pregnancy and lactation are also necessary to ensure that the DHA status of the mother is not compromised—a situation which is strongly associated with increased risk of post partum depression.
Made from the highest grade tuna oil and molecularly distilled to increase DHA concentration and eliminate contaminants, High DHA Finest Pure Fish Oil has been specifically formulated to provide very high levels of DHA sufficient for the mother to easily achieve the required intakes of DHA during pregnancy and lactation.
High DHA Finest Fish Oil is also appropriate for anyone wishing to specifically increase their intake of DHA. Depending on the individual, better results form high DHA intake may occur in depressive disorder and cognitive function improvement in children.
Also, just as with Finest Pure Fish Oil, there is no taste or odor of fish...and essential oil of orange has been added to provide a pleasant taste.
