how to get dha in your diet

Our bodies naturally produce small amounts of DHA, but we must get the amounts we need from our diet or supplements. Most people in the Western world do not get enough omega-3 fatty acids in their diet.

Udo's Oil with DHA is a completely vegan source (made with red algae) and it tastes great, not fishy! My kids and I take it in our smoothie and my husband just takes it on a spoon. It is awesome stuff. Other than that, off the top I would say avacados and nuts have good oils.

I am glad this question came up. For those who have done IVF, Are you taking Pre-natal vitamins all thru your cycle?

Dha is needed for brain development. And baby's brain will continue to grow and grow. It's also needed for their nervous system and eyes.

In regards to iron it is best to get your blood levels access to determine if you need extra iron before pregnancy then again after pregnancy. During pregnancy more iron is required because you are "making" more blood. Obviously you do not need permission from your doctor to start trying to get pregnant but if you have concerns - get a physical and blood work to make sure everything is ok and ask your doctor and pharmasist questions.

That upset me a lot. I get to the point of where I dread going to bed because I know how I will feel when I get up and I see my hub just skipping around all happy and I feel like tossing my cookies.

I take 200 mg a day but recently stopped taking my prenatals and are switching to organic ones because of studies I've read.

The nutritional supplements you would be required to take include Vitamin B12, iron, calcium, iodine (preferably fortified food), fatty acids and DHA.

I take One A Day Prenatal with DHA/EPA. The box (for $13) comes with one bottle of 30 prenatals and a bottle of 30 DHA/EPA pills. I have been taking them together through my pregnancy. My OB recommended them if the ones she prescribed didn't work out (they gave me a stomach ache so I went with One A Day). I have heard nothing but good things! I recommend them!

Well, I think I can rest my mind a little about all of this Omega fish oil stuff. My sister was reading over the info on an box of her old prenatal vitamins CitraNatal DHA and it was stated that ingestion of more than 3 grams /(3,000 mgs) of omega-3 fatty acids per day has been shown to have potential antithrombotic effects, including an increased bleeding time and INR.
