link about postpartum depressioin and DHA.

Keep in mind that 60 percent of your brain weight is DHA and in fetal development the DHA is taken from the mothers body.

According to some theories, we get much less DHA in our standard diets than we are evolved to need.

In fact, they can track depression in countries by the fish consumption their population.

DHA supplementation has been shown to make healthier and more neurollogically advanced babies.

DHA is also one of the first things thats suggestted for ADD and ADHD.

I am surprised all women don't know aboutt his stuff. Isn't it covered in our abstinence only education?

Does everyone know the signficance of folic acid supplementation when pregnant?
