Introduction Despite recommendations that pregnant women increase their
docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) intake to support fetal brain development, a recent systematic …

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid, is essential for

Background: The visual and mental development of preterm infants improved after feeding
them milk enriched with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in amounts matching the fetal …

Introduction During the last trimester of pregnancy, the fetal brain undergoes a rapid growth
spurt and accumulates essential nutrients including docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). This …

BACKGROUND: Studies investigating the effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in infant
formula on language development yield conflicting results. No study to date has investigated …

DHA is an important component of neural lipids accumulating in neural tissue during
development. Inadequate DHA in gestation may compromise infant development, but it is …
