The baby's 0-6 years old is the key period of vision and brain development, and 7-12 years old is the last developmental period of children's brain development, so we must seize this time period to give the baby enough DHA supplement.

Demand for DHA:

The baby's demand for DHA is different at different growth and development stages.

1, nursing mothers and babies aged 0-6 months

All the DHA that breast-fed babies need every day comes from their mothers, so breast-fed mothers need to consume at least 400 mg of DHA every day. If you are not breast-feeding, choose a formula containing DHA for your baby, and every150ml of formula contains at least DHA19mg.

2, 6 months-2 years old baby

Every day 100 mg DHA, choose some foods containing DHA for your baby, such as cheese and baby rice noodles. Children can also eat milk and eggs after they are one year old. In addition, marine fish, fish oil and soft-shelled turtle also contain DHA. In addition, if the doctor advises the child to supplement DHA, then about 150 mg per week is safe.

3, 2-5 years old baby

At this time, the amount of DHA that children need is about 200 mg per day. In addition, some foods sold in the market have also added DHA ingredients, such as grains and cheese. Please check the food labels carefully. In addition, if the doctor advises the child to supplement DHA, then 250-300 mg per week is safe.
