I have another question from an inquiring mom.she wants to know if there is
such a thing as baby getting too much DHA.  Her note to me:

 

Is there a such thing as too much? I know that it is in breast milk, but how
much? Some of the baby food fruits I do buy contain DHA, also yesterday I
picked up some Yo Baby Yogurt for Luke that also contains DHA. I tried to
find on the label how much, but did not see where it says that. I am just
curious if there is a Daily Amount that he should be getting...if that
amount is meant by breastfeeding and if he eats these food that have DHA is
it going to hurt him to get a little extra?

 

Thanks for any input. :-)

 

Warmly,

Jaye

 

Who maybe should have thought about becoming a nutritionist too??
