Hello, landlord! I'm a medical college student, so I'd better introduce this question to you in detail. EPA and DHA, the biological pansheng structures of ω-3 fatty acids, are two derivatives of α -linolenic acid. Simply speaking, α -linolenic acid can be converted into EPA and DHA after reaching human body.

In addition, what needs special explanation is, have you noticed a detail in the advertisement? "DHA makes children smarter" is true, but do you know what role α -linolenic acid plays?

Medically speaking, the lack of α -linolenic acid will cause infants and young children: intellectual development stays at a low level, resulting in poor retina development, poor attention and memory, brain development retardation, intellectual impairment, slow body development, rough skin, hindering the development of fetal cells, and various obstacles will appear, such as fetal hypoplasia and congenital malformation, which may lead to miscarriage and premature delivery.

It can be said that DHA makes children smarter, and α -linolenic acid is an essential nutrient for fetal development.
