The DHA advantage

Evidence-based strategies to reduce preterm birth

Register for our webinar

Date: 23 April | Time: 1pm EDT

For the first time expert clinical guidelines have set specific DHA intake levels for expecting mothers - but did you know that 90% of pregnant women fall short of these new recommendations?* There is a major gap between the new guidelines and what most prenatal supplements offer.

This shift presents a critical challenge for product innovation. But how can you formulate supplements that meet these new, higher targets without increasing pill size or compromising on taste?

Join Dr. Susan Carlson, AJ Rice Professor of Nutrition, and University Distinguished Professor at the University of Kansas Medical Center, and Sonia Hartunian-Sowa, Science, Translation and Advocacy at dsm-firmenich to explore practical ways to deliver the right dose, making it easier for your formulations to align with the updated clinical guidance.
