Vital DHA - 60 capsules (4 weeks' supply)
“DHA will be become as important for pregnancy as Folic Acid in the future”
Zita West
It is well worth taking the time to look at the research on DHA to see why we believe that DHA supplementation is going to become so important to pregnancy planning in the future.
Vital DHA is an essential fatty acid containing DHA, EPA and GLA. Essential fatty acids are important structural elements in the development of healthy cell membranes and body tissue during pregnancy and in early infancy and, in particular, of the baby's brain and eyes. Early infants are unable to produce their own DHA and rely entirely on the intake from their mother's diet, if they are breast-fed.
We strongly recommend that couples should consider supplementing with Vital DHA during their preparation for conception and that women should continue with this through pregnancy and in the months following birth. Research has associated optimal foetal and infant development with the availability of sufficient levels of fatty acids in the mother's diet.
VitalDHA can be used by itself, should you so wish, or as a companion product alongside our premium range (Vitamen and Vitafem, Vitamen Boost and Vitafem Boost, Vital Essence and ReVital Essence) or our lower-priced, multi-stage multivitamin, Pregnancy Plan.
The EFA's in Vital DHA are provided in triglyceride form for maximum bio-availability. Supplementing with Vital DHA can help to safeguard against any dietary deficiency in both partners.
Vital DHA is made from ultra-pure fish and tuna oils which are molecularly distilled to test for the absence of all known contaminants, including mercury. It is free from artificial colours, preservatives, gluten and gelatin. Non-GM.
All tuna oil used is dolphin-friendly and from sustainable stocks.
