Product Description:
DHA is an omega-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid and it is the primary building block of the human brain tissue and eye. Human brain is about 60% fat, and DHA is one of the crucial structural fatty acids in both the brain and the retina. Approximately 30% of the structural lipid in the gray matter of the brain is DHA. Thus, it is required for the proper functioning of the neural systems. DHA is vital for normal brain development of the fetus and infant, and for the maintenance of normal brain function throughout life. Additionally, many scientific parties have made recommendations regarding the intake of omega-3 fatty acids and cardiovascular health mainly because it has been shown to help lower and normalize certain blood lipids. DHA may lower triglyceride levels and in some, may elevate HDL (good) cholesterol levels. Unfortunately, the typical Western diet may not provide you sufficient amounts of DHA, and many vegetarians, vegans, and raw foods dieters are also at risk of having insufficiencies of DHA unless they supplement.
