Omega-3 is considered an essential nutrient that must be consumed daily and obtained from our diet. But during pregnancy, our omega-3 requirements increase to support healthy foetal development.
Our most advanced DHA supplement formulation includes pure DHA derived from microalgae with a high sn-2 content for increased bioavailability which helps support healthy foetal CNS/brain development, while the combination of zeaxanthin and lutein sourced from the marigold flower as well as beta-carotene, support healthy foetal development.
All this is delivered to you in our patented Nutriseal-Caps™ technology. Our innovative capsule in capsule design improves stability, increases bioavailability and provides you with a 2-in-1 formula to reduce the amount of supplements you need to take each day.

The DHA Difference
Sn-2 DHA
It is commonly known that DHA is an essential fatty acid required in our diets, however it’s less known that as a triglyceride molecule, DHA has 3 double bonds attached to it and the position of each double bond can have an impact on its properties and effects in the body.
When it comes to absorption in the body, DHA at the sn-2 position can enter the brain and of the DHA found in breastmilk, 52-65% is located at the sn-2 position.
Furthermore, DHA located at the sn-2 position oxidizes slower over time, which makes it a more stable form of DHA.
Our DHA contains up to 25% more sn-2 DHA than common algal DHA, making it a great choice for you and your growing baby.
Nutriseal-Caps Innovation
Our Nutriseal-Caps™ are specially designed to work in harmony with your body and maximise absorption.
We use pH and time delay technology to make sure the ingredients in each section of the capsule get to where the body needs them most. While our custom bottle design is made to protect the capsules within. Working like a thermos, the double layer acts as a barrier against light, heat and moisture – all off which can effect the life of supplements.

How much DHA can I take per day?
Studies involving pregnant participants, have utilised daily doses between 200 – 2200mg per day of DHA. Perdays utilises a combination of international health authority recommendations and the latest human clinical research to determine dosage instructions. DHA requirements increase during pregnancy due to the increased nutrient requirements of a woman and her baby as her pregnancy progresses.
We recommend:
Women trying to conceive – 1 capsule per day
0-12 weeks pregnant – 1 capsule per day
13-27 weeks pregnant – 2 capsules per day
28-40 weeks pregnant – 2-3 capsules per day
