Frequently Asked Questions

Why do new mothers need omega-3 after birth?

During pregnancy and breastfeeding, DHA is transferred from the mother to the baby for brain and eye development. This depletes the mother's own DHA stores, which can affect mood, cognitive function, and recovery after birth. Postnatal omega-3 helps replenish these levels.

Can I take Nordic Naturals Postnatal Omega-3 while breastfeeding?

Yes. This supplement is specifically designed for breastfeeding mothers. DHA from the supplement is transferred into breast milk, supporting your baby's brain and eye development while also replenishing your own stores.

Does this omega-3 support postnatal depression?

Research suggests omega-3 DHA and EPA may support mood and reduce the risk of postnatal depression. This supplement is not a treatment for postnatal depression — if you are experiencing symptoms, please speak with your doctor.

How long should I take postnatal omega-3?

Many experts recommend continuing omega-3 supplementation throughout breastfeeding and for at least 6 months postpartum to support your recovery and your baby's development. Consult your midwife or GP for personalised guidance.

Is Nordic Naturals Postnatal Omega-3 sustainably sourced?

Yes. Nordic Naturals is Friend of the Sea certified, and all products are made from wild-caught fish using sustainable fishing practices. The oil is purified and third-party tested for heavy metals and contaminants.
