Omega-3 During Pregnancy: Why It’s Essential for Baby’s Brain and Eye

Introduction

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey where every nutritional choice impacts two lives—yours and your baby’s. Among the many nutrients needed during this phase, Omega-3 fatty acids, particularly DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) and EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid), are essential for both maternal health and fetal development.

Unfortunately, many Pakistani diets are low in Omega-3-rich foods, making Omega-3 supplements in Pakistan a valuable source of this crucial nutrient during pregnancy. That’s where Everseas Omega-3 by SOIS Life Sciences comes in—your trusted, 100% halal companion for a healthier pregnancy.

🌿 What Is Omega-3?

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential polyunsaturated fats that the body cannot produce on its own. These "good fats" must be obtained through diet or supplementation and are critical for brain development, vision, immune function, and heart health.

There are three main types:

• DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid)

• EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid)

• ALA (Alpha-linolenic Acid)

Among these, DHA is most vital for pregnant women, as it supports the development of the fetal brain and retina.

🧠 Why Omega-3 Is Crucial During Pregnancy

1. Fetal Brain Development

The brain of a developing fetus is made up largely of fat—especially DHA. Getting enough Omega-3 helps build neurons and synaptic connections. A deficiency can impact cognitive development long-term.

2. Eye and Visual Health

The retina contains high levels of DHA. Omega-3 ensures proper formation of the retina and can improve the infant's vision even after birth.

➡️ Choose Everseas Omegac Boost to enhance visual development.

3. Reduces Risk of Preterm Birth

Research has shown that adequate Omega-3 intake lowers the risk of premature labor, helping ensure a full-term, healthy delivery.

4. Improves Maternal Mood & Reduces Depression

Low Omega-3 levels are linked to postpartum depression. Omega-3s help regulate mood, promoting emotional stability throughout and after pregnancy.

➡️ Prevent mood swings with a regular dose of Ultra Strength Omega-3 + Cod Liver Oil Bundle.

🍽️ Natural Sources of Omega-3 During Pregnancy

Eating Omega-3-rich foods is important, but concerns like mercury content in fish can make expecting mothers hesitant. Here are some safer options:

Still, most doctors recommend Omega-3 supplements during pregnancy to meet daily DHA and EPA needs without the risk of contaminants.

💊 How Much Omega-3 Should You Take During Pregnancy?

The World Health Organization recommends at least 200–300 mg of DHA daily during pregnancy.

To meet this safely and effectively, opt for halal-certified, mercury-free supplements like Everseas Omega-3 by SOIS Life Sciences, made in Pakistan with international standards.
