How Essential are Fatty Acids for Babies?

LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE

How do the essential fatty acids in fish foods help your baby’s still developing brain? In this episode we cover both EPA and DHA exploring how your baby can safely get these fatty acids…even if your family doesn’t eat a lot of fish. 

SUMMARY OF EPISODE

In this episode we’re talking about:

• the importance of essential fatty acids, particularly omega-3 fatty acids, for babies' brain and eye development.

• the need to provide these fatty acids through natural food sources rather than relying on expensive supplements.

• how to ensure babies receive adequate amounts from natural food sources to support their development.
