Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) Product Description
Premium Omega-3 Supplement for Brain, Eye & Cardiovascular Health
Product Overview
Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) is a vital long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) naturally found in fish oils and algal sources. As a critical structural component of the human brain (40% of total PUFAs) and retina, DHA supports neurodevelopment, cognitive function, and visual health . Recognized as an essential nutrient, it must be obtained through diet or supplements due to limited endogenous synthesis .
