Pure DHA Childlife Essentials, 90 capsules, SecomProperties: Maintains normal brain function. Effects and benefits: DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) is an important fatty acid for the development and normal functioning of the brain in the fetus, young child and throughout life. DHA is an essential component of human cell membrane phospholipids. In the first year of life the brain triples in size. DHA is one of the two main essential fatty acids in fish oil, known as Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. Polyunsaturated fatty acids are called essential because they cannot be synthesized by the body and must be supplied externally. The highest concentration of fatty acids is found in the phospholipids of the retinal cell membrane (50-60%), nerve and myelin (the covering of nerve fibers). The brain is composed of 60% fat, 30% of which is DHA. - maintaining normal brain function* - maintaining normal vision* - normal heart function** Composition (Per 3 capsules): Omega-3 fatty acids 180 mg Purified Arctic Cod Liver Oil providing EPA 60 mg (eicosapentaenoic acid) DHA 90 mg (docosahexaenoic acid) Other Omega-3 fatty acids 30 mg Vitamin E [0-1IU] Vitamin A 49.5 mcg [90-195IU] Vitamin D [0-5IU] Administration method: Children 6-12 months: 1-3 capsules/day (open capsule) Children 1-3 years: 3-6 capsules/day Children 4+ years: 6-9 capsules/day or as recommended by the specialist consultant.
