The Birth Breakdown: DHA- Why It Is Important?

from Her Birth, Her Story Hosted by Brooke M

You’ve probably heard that omega-3s are important during pregnancy—but what exactly is DHA, and why do so many prenatal experts recommend it specifically? In this Birth Breakdown minisode, we’re breaking down the difference between omega-3 fatty acids and DHA, why DHA plays a critical role in your baby’s brain and eye development, how much you should aim for during pregnancy, and what to look for when choosing a supplement. If you’ve ever stood in the vitamin aisle wondering if your prenatal or fish oil is enough, this episode is for you. Because informed moms make empowered decisions. Not medical advice, just encouragement to do your own research and have TRUE informed consent 🙂 Weekly interview episodes released every Tuesday at 8:00am EST Weekly minisodes released every Thursday at 12:00pm EST Want to empower other women through YOUR story?
