Application
DHA is the abbreviation of docosahexaenoic acid, which is an important polyunsaturated fatty acid for the growth and maintenance of nervous system cells (such as brain and retinal cells). It is difficult for human body to synthesize DHA itself, so it must be taken from the outside environment. Medical research shows that DHA, as the essential fatty acid for the growth and development of human retina and brain, can promote the development of vision and intelligence of infants and young children. DHA has positive health care functions in maintaining brain function, delaying brain aging, preventing Alzheimer’s disease and neurological disease, and preventing cardiovascular disease. Lack of DHA in human body can cause a series of symptoms such as growth retardation, infertility and mental retardation. DHA and ARA form a balance regulation mechanism of physiological function, which jointly regulate physiological activities such as lipid metabolism, glucose metabolism, coagulation mechanism, muscle growth, sleep and immune response.
