Super Algae DHA – Helping mothers to grow smart babies
Omega-3 fatty acids are "good fats" and are one of the most important nutrients missing in today’s urban diet. DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) commonly known as the essential brain food , is the most important and abundant omega-3 fatty acid in our brain. DHA is a polyunsaturated fatty acid that is very important to the human body and is a major element in the growth and maintenance of cells in the nervous system. Since our body cannot effectively produce DHA, we need to absorb this important nutrient from our diet in order to maintain the optimal function of our brain. According to scientific research, the brain accumulates DHA at the fastest rate 3 months before birth and 3 months after birth. Therefore, if the expectant mother can consume enough DHA, it is very important for the composition and development of the fetal brain cell network. In addition, DHA is also the key to early baby nutrition.
Immune System: The First Pass of Infant and Child Health
Research shows that pregnant women who consume enough DHA during pregnancy can help improve the immune function of babies. After weaning your baby from breast milk, he or she completely depends on his / her own physical ability to resist the invasion of various harmful bacteria in nature. If DHA is insufficient, it will lead to immune dysfunction and easily be invaded by harmful bacteria. Supplementing DHA can enhance immunity and reduce the chance of illness to a large extent.
Brain development
The human brain has about 100 billion neurons, which is the basis for the brain's complex functions and wisdom. Brain development requires a series of complex processes such as the formation and modification of cells. Nutrients and energy are the material basis for brain development. 0 to 6 years of age is a critical period of brain development, so DHA is an essential nutrient for fetal and childhood brain development. DHA can promote the formation of neural networks, accelerate the release of neurotransmitters and the speed of information transmit, and repair damaged brain cells. In the last trimester of pregnancy, the DHA contents of fetus' brain will increase 3 to 5 times, so expectant mothers should ensure sufficient DHA intake at this time.
Promote retinal cell maturation
About 60% of the information obtained by the human brain comes from vision. Therefore, the visual function directly affects children's response ability, spatial perception, and the speed of perception. DHA is an important component of the retina, lack of DHA will impair visual function, resulting in slow development of visual acuity and prolonged fixation of the optical signal stimulus, thus affecting the infant's ability to respond and observe.
Improve IQ development in infants and young children
0 to 6 years old is a critical period for the development of children's IQ. Studies have shown that children supplemented with DHA during this period have significantly improved their cognitive, language, and motor skills compared to other children. In the absence of DHA, the division and proliferation of fetal brain cells will be impaired. In severe cases, brain cell development will be delayed and the intelligence level will be low. Insufficient intake of DHA in pregnant women can lead to very light weight of the baby at birth, delayed development of the nervous system, mental flexibility, language expression ability, comprehension and fine motor activity are lower than normal children.
With anti-allergic, enhance immune function
The prevalence of allergic symptoms in children and adolescents have been increasing year by year. Severe situations can affect the physical and mental health and academic performance of children and adolescents. Clinical studies have found that arachidonic acid (ARA) can synthesize substances that cause allergies in vivo. If the intake of DHA is appropriate, excessive ARA formation can be avoided, allergic reactions and opportunities can be reduced, and immunity can be enhanced.
As we have known that DHA is so important to pregnant women, babies, and children, which foods are rich in DHA?
1, breast milk
The DHA contents in colostrum is particularly rich. However, the amount of DHA in breast milk depends on the food choices of the mother's meals. Japanese mothers eat fish more often, the DHA contents of their breast milk is up to 22%, which is ranking first in the world; followed by Australia, about 10%; and the United States lowest, only 7%.
2, Algae
In addition to the rich contents of DHA, seaweed also contains a variety of vitamins and minerals, and has good health benefits.
3, deep-sea fish
Fish with high DHA content include tuna fish, salmon, mackerel, sardines, tuna, yellow croaker, Pacific saury, etc. However, due to the high content of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) in fish oil, the proportion of DHA is too low, which is quite different from breast milk and does not meet the physiological needs of infants.
4, Dried fruit
Such as walnuts, almonds, peanuts, sesame and so on. The alpha-linolenic acid contained therein can be converted into DHA in human body.
5, formula milk powder
DHA-fortified formula milk powder.
6, DHA supplements
There are two options available in the market: one is from deep-sea fish oil and the other is from algae. In contrast, the advantages of algae are outstanding. Algae oil is a pure plant-based DHA raw material. It is extracted from artificially cultivated marine microalgae without passing through the food chain and is currently the purest and safest source of DHA in the world.
