Baby's Only DHA and ARA Fatty Acid Essentials Description

DHA & ARA Fatty Acid Supplement

  • DHA & ARA Fatty Acid from Natural Sources
  • Fatty Acids Present in Breast Milk Support the Development of the Brain and Eyes

Fatty Acids for Brain Development & Visual Acuity

Baby Only Essentials is properly balanced with the long chain fatty acids, DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and ARA (arachidonic acid), important for development. These fats are known to concentrate in a baby's brain & eye retina promoting mental development and visual acuity. If breast milk is not available, then a baby requires a dietary source of these fats by synthesizing them from linoleic & alpha-linoleic fatty acids, as found in Baby's Only Organic Toddler Formulas, and/or by supplementing with Baby's Only Essentials DHA & ARA Fatty Acids.

For an infant receiving breast milk as its single-source of nutrition, it may not be necessary to provide supplemental DHA & ARA.

Baby Only Essentials DHA & ARA Fatty Acid is naturally derived from the goodness of Egg Phospholipids using an aqueous (water) process. This differs from C. cohnii oil (algae) & M. alpina oil (fungus) used in infant formulas, which are treated with hexane solvent, acid and bleach.

Choline is an essential nutrient found in Baby's Only Essentials fatty acids. Choline is necessary for the structure and function of all cells in the body. Choline is also an important nutrient needed for the production of neurotransmitters and development of the memory center in the brain, impacting long-term memory.

Benefits of Choosing Baby's Only Essentials DHA & ARA

  • DHA & ARA Fatty Acids are known to concentrate in a fetus' developing brain and eye retina at a rate that increases as the pregnancy progresses. This accumulation of DHA & ARA in the brain and retina continues even after birth.
  • Baby's Only DHA & ARA source of fatty acids is from the natural goodness of egg-yolk phospholipids. This differs from C. cohnii oil (algae) & M. alpina oil (fungus) used in infant formulas, which are hexane extracted, deodorized and bleached.
  • A recent study concluded that egg phospholipid was more bio-available than other sources used in the study (fish oil and algal oil). Because it was more easily incorporated into the body, less egg-phospholipid had to be consumed in order to achieve the desired effect.
  • Nature's One provides the only source of DHA & ARA containing cholesterol also present in breast milk and believed to assist in normal cholesterol production as the baby matures.
  • Baby's Only Essentials contains Choline, an important nutrient needed for the production of neurotransmitters and development of the memory center in the brain, impacting long-term memory.
  • Individual packets make it possible for healthcare professionals to recommend specific dosing of DHA & ARA.
