Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), an omega-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid, is the building block of brain tissue. It is the primary structural fatty acid in the gray matter of the brain and retina of the eye. DHA is an essential nutrient for eye development and for mental and visual function. Humans obtain DHA from their diets, initially through the placenta and from breast milk, but these levels are commonly low in pregnant and breast feeding women. DHA is commonly added to infant formula in Japan and Europe, but unfortunately has still not been added to US infant formulas. In addition, vegetarians eating no fish have very low to no DHA in their body.
