Benefits to New Mothers

The importance of DHA can be seen clearly in the composition of human breast milk. DHA is the most abundant fatty acid in breast milk because it is essential for proper development of the baby's brain, eyes and nervous system. Unfortunately, DHA levels in the breast milk of U.S. women are among the lowest in the world.

DHA is critically important for pregnant and nursing women. Studies show that breastfed babies who have an increased level of DHA in their brains also have IQ advantages over babies fed formula without DHA. An additional 200 mg of DHA (2 capsules of I.Q.) capsules is so safe that it has been incorporated into infant formulas in Europe. Recently a few infant formulas sold in the United States contain this essential fatty acid. Neuromins DHA has been rigorously tested for safety and approved for future use in baby formula products in the U.S. In the meantime, you can easily add DHA to your baby's formula by puncturing the capsule of I.Q. and pouring the oil into their bottle once a day.
