(Health-NewsWire.Net, August 10, 2015 ) Orlando, FL -- Pregnant women have a number of specific needs that should be satisfied. Satisfying these needs is highly beneficial both for the mother and baby. There are many things that pregnant women or mothers can do to take care of their babies, and that includes taking certain nutrients.
Omega-3 fats are believed to be beneficial for the brain health and function in babies. Caring for individuals who are in their delicate, tender years can be challenging. However, nowadays, there are many things that mothers can do to help nurture their child with the necessary nutrients.
According to research, an increase in the intake of omega-3 fatty acids can provide a number of health benefits. Babies with diets that are abundant of essential fats appear to have a great advantage in terms of early development. Infants that are born to mothers whose daily diets contain high levels of essential fatty acids are also believed to have more advanced attention span.
"Omega-3 fatty acids have long been used for various health purposes. They are very popular among the elderly or those who are prone to cardiovascular diseases," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.
Researchers suggest that mothers with high DHA omega-3 fatty acid levels normally deliver infants that have advanced levels of attention spans into the second year of life. Within the first six months of life, the babies were ahead for two months versus infants whose mothers consumed lower DHA.
John Colombo, PhD, lead researcher, suggests that attention is an important component of intelligence early in human life. This adds to the increasing evidence that DHA plays a major role in brain development. The brain accumulates huge amounts of DHA during the first two years of life. The brain and nervous system, compared to the rest of the body, contains enormous levels of DHA. However, the exact role of the fat in the brain is not yet fully known.
Barbara Levine, PhD, a nutritionist, recommends that pregnant women should take 250mgs of DHA. There are several ways to obtain omega-3 fats, and one is to eat certain fish types. There are also fish oil supplements that can be used as an alternative to fish consumption.
Fish oil supplements are widely available in the market today. There are many products to choose from, and experts suggest that consumers should take prudent care in selecting the right product. They recommend that consumers should choose fish oil supplements that come from a reliable herbal company, and those that come in combination with BioPerine, a bioavailability enhancer (amazon.com/Omega-Fish-Oil-Supplement-Softgels/dp/B00O8NS20K).
