DHA (Docosahexaenoic acid), an omega-3 fatty acid, is an important building block of brain tissue. The brain is 60% fat, and DHA is the
most abundant fatty acid in both the brain and the retina of the eye. It is absolutely essential for healthy brain and eye function.
Your brain is arguably the most important, and certainly the most complicated,
organ in the body. I.Q. DHA provides one simple way to help you give your brain the
attention it deserves.
Today the average American's diet is estimated to be 100 mg lower in DHA than it was 50 years ago. In fact, our nation has one of the lowest
DHA levels in the world. Vegetarians are particularly vulnerable to low DHA levels.
Low levels of DHA have been correlated with changes in
disposition, memory loss and visual and other neurological conditions. This decline in DHA consumption has also led to an unhealthy
imbalance between omega-3 fatty acids and the more plentiful omega-6 fatty acids. I.Q. puts DHA back into your diet, helping you maintain healthy
blood levels of this substance.
