What are fatty acids? Why are they important for my baby's development?
Certain fatty acids, like DHA and ARA (sources of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fats), are building blocks for your baby's brain and eyes, before and after birth. Because a baby's brain develops quickly in the early months of life, many experts believe that it can be beneficial for babies to get DHA and ARA during that time.
You can pass DHA and ARA to your baby through breast milk. Or he can get these same great nutrients through Enfamil A+®. Enfamil A+ has DHA and ARA, important nutrients for normal brain and eye development and normal growth. Enfamil A+ is our closest formula to breast milk.
