When do babies start eating DHA?

DHA supplementation can be started from 6 months of age, depending on individual circumstances.

First of all, DHA is an important unsaturated fatty acid in the human body, which plays an important role in the brain and nervous system development of infants. The golden period of brain and nervous system development is between 6 months and 2 years old, so infants can start DHA supplementation from 6 months to 2 years old. However, due to individual differences, the specific time to start DHA supplementation depends on individual circumstances.

If infants are breastfed, mothers can eat more foods rich in DHA, such as deep-sea fish, dried fruits, etc., so that DHA can be supplemented indirectly through breast milk. If infants are artificially fed, they can choose formula milk supplemented with DHA.
