Neurogen Dha (30 Capsules)
A Vegan Blend of DHA and Vitamin E • Provides 200 mg of DHA from algal oil per daily dose • Provides 40 IU of vitamin E per daily dose • Supports Neurological Function Neurogen DHA is an effective combination of the omega-3 fatty acid DHA and vitamin E that helps support neurological health. As vegan and vegetarian diets tend to provide significantly less DHA, algae-derived oils provide a vegan-friendly omega-3 source with a low impact on the ocean ecosystem.1,2 Recent research demonstrates that DHA deficiency decreases brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels in the hypothalamus and hippocampus, which is necessary for brain plasticity and function.3 Neuroprotectin D1, a DHA metabolite, has also been shown to maintain neuronal cell function after exposure to oxidative stress.4 REFERENCES 1.
