Adults can obtain DHA indirectly through the conversion of the essential fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), present in vegetable oils such as linseed but this process is very inefficient. Fish oils provide a much more reliable, direct source of DHA. The foetus and infant in early life need to receive these fatty acids directly as they only have a limited capability to convert essential fatty acids to more active long chain fatty acids such as DHA. These fatty acids are passed to the baby via breast milk and helps in the development of the baby's brain and eyes.

Prenatol has been carefully developed by a team of medical experts including highly qualified pharmacists and medical consultants, and is based upon solid scientific research evidence, as a nutritional safeguard for women from before conception and throughout all of pregnancy. Prenatol is a multivitamin and fish oil supplement formulated to safeguard the nutritional needs of mother and baby. Prenatol replaces your usual daily multivitamin.
