DHA and Your Brain Health

You may have heard of DHA before, but what is it and why is it important? DHA, or docosahexaenoic acid, is a type of omega-3 fatty acid. It is found in fish oil, and it has a number of benefits for your health. One of those benefits is supporting brain health. In fact, DHA plays a role in cognitive function.

NOW DHA-1000 Brain Support contains four times the DHA (1,000 mg per softgel) than our regular strength product (250 mg per softgel). This fish oil concentrate is manufactured under strict quality control standards. It is tested to be free of potentially harmful levels of contaminants such as PCBs, dioxins, mercury and other heavy metals.

So, if you're looking for a way to support your brain health, NOW DHA-1000 Brain Support is a great option. Keep reading to learn more about how DHA supports cognitive function.

The Role of DHA in Cognitive Function

DHA makes up a large part of the brain. In fact, it comprises around 40% of the polyunsaturated fatty acids in the cerebral cortex. Because of this high concentration in the brain, some researchers believe that DHA plays an important role in cognitive function.

One study showed that participants who took 1 gram of DHA per day for 4 weeks had improved performance on tests that measured attention and reaction time. Another study looked at older adults with mild memory problems. The participants who took 900 mg of DHA per day for 24 weeks had better scores on tests that measure memory and learning than those who didn't take DHA.

These studies suggest that DHA may improve some measures of cognitive function. However, more research is needed to confirm these results.

In Summary:

DHA is an important omega-3 fatty acid that plays a role in brain health and cognition. If you're looking for a way to support your brain health, NOW DHA-1000 Brain Support is a great option.
