NuaDHA® 500 (60 pearls – lemon flavoured)

NuaDHA®500 is a food supplement based on DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) that provides 500mg of DHA per softgel. This is the highest concentration of DHA per softgel within the chewable formats on the market. This chewable format, with a lemon flavor, is ideal for children or people who do not know or cannot swallow.

Due to its characteristics, it allows 3 possible forms of intake:

• Opening through the bottleneck of the softgel and pouring the lemon-flavored oil into yogurt, puree, soup or similar;
• Chewing the capsule, being able to take or discard the gelatin wrapper (do not give to children under 3 years of age to avoid choking);
• Swallow (make sure the child knows how to swallow).

Our body is not capable to synthesize DHA and therefore, we depend on the diet to acquire it. However, the supply of DHA though the diet of modern countries is often insufficient (between 100-150mg per day), and it is sometimes necessary to rely on supplementation. The minimum nutritional requirements are 250-300mg.

Taking 5 weekly softgel of NuaDHA®500, will more than cover the weekly nutritional needs of DHA.

Note: NuaDHA® and the remaining range of Nua oils were the first Spanish laboratory working with omega-3 and having the ‘IFOS 5-star’ quality certificate. This is the most rigorous quality certificate in the world for omega-3’s.

What are the key benefits associated to DHA?

• Without a doubt, DHA is very important in supporting concentration and memory in childhood, as well as in adulthood. Taking it regularly will help you support cognitive function, improve attention span and processing speed, in additional to helping modulate mood.
• According to EFSA*, DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal visual function. More than 50% of the fat in the macula** is DHA. Therefore, it is a fundamental nutrient in children’s visual development, as well as a support against various visual alterations in adulthood.
• Given its abundance in sperm, DHA is very important for male fertility since an effective supply undoubtedly contributes to strengthening the structure of the sperm. This aspect is of great relevance if we take into account that more than 50% of infertility problems in couples are due to men.
• At a cardiovascular level, according to EFSA*, DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal triglyceride levels (minimum 2000mg daily dose) as well as normal blood pressure (3000mg daily dose combined with EPA).

**Macula: central area of the retina, responsible for clear and defined vision.

Indications and Instructions for use

1-2 daily softgels, always with food.

Some recommended uses for this format are:

• Nutritional dose of DHA for teenagers and adults interested in nourishing, especially, the visual and cognitive area. Take 1 softgel /day for 5-7 days/week.
• DHA reinforcement for pregnant women at a rate of 1 softgel /day during 1st and 2nd trimesters of pregnancy, and 2 softgels/day during the 3rd, where the DHA demands increase significantly. This preparation can be taken at the same time as a prenatal multivitamin preparation that may contain some DHA (typically little e.g. 90-200mg).

Note: European authorities have established that pregnant women can take up to 1000mg/day of omega-3 with complete safety for the mother and fetus. DHA is an essential nutrient for the construction of the brain and the visual system, hence the importance of guaranteeing its intake during pregnancy and after childbirth.
