Prenatal DHA
Essential omega-3 support for baby’s brain, eyes, and healthy development.
Thorne Prenatal DHA provides a high-quality source of the omega-3 fatty acid DHA, essential for supporting your baby’s brain, nervous system, and eye development during pregnancy and early life. DHA plays a critical role during the third trimester through the first two years, when a baby’s brain is rapidly growing and accumulating this vital nutrient.
Because the body produces only small amounts of DHA—and most diets fall short of optimal intake—supplementation helps ensure both mother and baby receive adequate levels. In addition to supporting fetal development, DHA also contributes to a healthy pregnancy and overall maternal wellness.
