Omega?3 fatty acids, including EPA and DHA can help support your baby’s development and contribute to his or her health during and after birth. They are important not just for the maintenance of good health, but they also help support cognitive health and brain function. Fish is a great source of Omega-3 fatty acids but many women reduce fish intake during pregnancy due to concerns about toxins. If this is the case for you, consider filling this nutritional gap with a prenatal DHA supplement to ensure both you and your baby are getting enough of this important nutrient.
