We didn’t create another fish oil. We created one that truly supports women’s brains.

Most omega-3 supplements are EPA-heavy. Essential DHA is different. Two softgels deliver a high 5:1 DHA to EPA ratio to prioritize mental clarity, emotional balance, and long-term cognitive support.

We use the triglyceride form, the natural structure found in food and the most bioavailable format, so your body can better absorb and use it.

Every batch is molecularly distilled, third-party tested, and IFOS-certified for purity and freshness. We then finish it with T-70 tocopherols for added stability and organic orange oil for a clean, no-fishy experience.

Because your brain runs on DHA.

DHA is the primary omega-3 found in the brain. It supports memory, focus, and emotional steadiness, especially during seasons when you are giving so much of yourself.

Most fish oils are EPA-heavy. Essential DHA is different. With a high 5:1 DHA to EPA ratio, it prioritizes the nutrient your brain is most likely to lose during pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond with the ongoing mental load of everyday life.

EPA is still included for complementary heart and mood support. But DHA leads, because that is where real replenishment begins.

Yes. And during this season, it truly matters.

Your body gives so much to grow and nourish your baby, and DHA is one of the first nutrients redirected to support their developing brain and nervous system. The same is true while breastfeeding. It is a beautiful sacrifice, but it can leave you depleted.

Replenishing DHA helps support your baby’s development in utero and through breast milk, while also protecting your own clarity, mood, and long-term brain health.

Essential DHA is molecularly distilled and third-party tested for purity and freshness, so you can feel confident choosing a clean, high-quality source of omega-3s for both of you.

As always, speak with your healthcare provider if you have specific medical questions.

No. That was important to us.

Many omega-3 supplements oxidize easily, which causes that unpleasant fishy taste or repeat burping.

Essential DHA is molecularly distilled and protected with a high-gamma T-70 tocopherol blend to preserve freshness and prevent oxidation. We finish each softgel with organic orange oil for a clean, light citrus experience.

For best results, take it with a meal.

Essential DHA is in triglyceride form, the natural structure found in whole foods.

Many fish oils are made in ethyl ester form, which is more processed and harder for the body to absorb. Triglyceride-form omega-3s are better recognized and more easily used by your body.

This means more DHA reaches your brain, nervous system, and cells where it is needed most.

Yes. They were designed to work together. Mama Support and Mama Expecting provide foundational nutrients like iron, choline, and methylated B vitamins to replenish and rebuild, while Mood supports stress response and emotional balance.

Essential DHA adds targeted omega-3 support for brain health, clarity, and long-term resilience. Together, they create intentional, layered support for pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.

Omega-3s work quietly in the background. They are not a quick fix, but a long-term investment in your brain and nervous system.

Some women notice improvements in clarity or steadiness within a few weeks. For others, it is more gradual. Consistency matters most. Over time, replenishing DHA helps support memory, mood, and overall cognitive health in a way that builds and sustains.

Our omega-3s come from wild-caught anchovy, sardine, and mackerel off the coast of Norway.

Norwegian marine oils are known for their exceptional purity and sustainability standards. The cold, clean waters and strict fishing regulations help ensure a higher-quality oil from the very beginning. We intentionally use small, wild fish known for their naturally clean profile.

Yes. Essential DHA can be taken by teens 13 and older.

Adolescence is a period of rapid brain development, and DHA plays an important role in supporting cognitive function, focus, and emotional balance during these years.

For teens 13 to 17, we recommend 1 to 2 softgels daily. As always, speak with a healthcare provider if you have specific questions or medical considerations.

Vitamin E is added to protect the delicate omega-3 oils from oxidation.

Omega-3s are sensitive to air and light, which can cause them to degrade over time. We use a high-quality T-70 tocopherol blend, rich in gamma-tocopherol, to help preserve freshness, potency, and stability.

It is there to protect the DHA, not to bulk up the formula. Nothing unnecessary. Just what is needed to keep it clean and effective.
