Prenatal DHA

Your DHA level during pregnancy can have a profound effect on your health, your baby’s development, and your birth outcome — but you can’t know it just by guessing from your diet.

The Prenatal DHA Test measures DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) in your blood so you can see if you’re getting enough of this essential omega-3 for a healthy pregnancy.

For you, higher DHA blood levels are linked to:

• Lower risk of early preterm birth (before 34 weeks)
• Improved postpartum recovery

For your baby, DHA supports:

• Brain development
• Eye health and vision
• Healthy immune system function

• Women with low DHA have a 10× higher risk of early preterm birth.
• 42% reduction in early preterm birth risk when DHA is optimized.
• Target level: 5% or higher blood DHA.
• Average DHA intake from diet alone? Just ~60 mg/day — far below the recommended 200 mg/day.

Once you know your DHA level, you can raise it in 2–3 months with:

• Two servings/week of low-mercury, high-DHA fish (salmon, anchovies, herring, mackerel)
• A prenatal DHA or fish oil supplement with at least 200 mg DHA per serving (ideally with EPA as well)
• A combination of both fish and supplements for optimal results

1. Measure — A simple blood test shows your exact DHA level.
