What are some good sources for ARA and DHA for babies over one year who are not drinking formula anymore?
I'm a first time Mom, and I want to try to do everything right that I can, so I have a nutritional question for you all...
What are some good sources of DHA and ARA for toddlers? I took Expecta Lipil the whole time that I was pregnant (from the day that I thought I might have conceived) all the way through breastfeeding, and then made sure that my daughter drank a formula that had the highest amounts of DHA/ARA that I could find, since both are supposed to support visual and mental development.
Now she is off formula and drinking whole cow's milk (Horizon Organic Whole Milk), and I am afraid that she is not getting enough of these two fatty acids (Omega 3 and 6).
I know that salmon is a good source of Omega 3's, and she loves wild alaskan salmon, but what are some other sources?
Common dietary sources of DHA and ARA include eggs, meat, and fish, primarily oily fish like salmon, tuna, and sardines for DHA.
Basically all proteins contain some fatty acids that are converted to DHA and ARA. Babies can't eat nuts, but you can try peanut butter, also.
