AvailOM® DHA

What Is AvailOM® DHA?

Source: Microalgae-derived DHA (Schizochytrium sp.)

Formulation: Microencapsulated powder, non-GMO, vegan-friendly

Traditional Role: Building block of neuronal membranes and retinal cells

Unlike conventional fish oil, AvailOM® DHA offers a clean, sustainable source of docosahexaenoic acid. Its microencapsulation minimizes oxidation and avoids any fishy aftertaste, delivering pure, stable DHA directly to your cells.

Mechanisms of Action

By integrating into membranes and generating anti-inflammatory mediators, AvailOM® DHA supports both brain and cardiovascular function. Its role in BDNF expression also fosters stronger synaptic connections, improving cognition.

Core Benefits

• Cognitive Support: Strengthens synaptic communication, aiding memory, focus, and mental clarity.
• Mood Regulation: Balances neurotransmitters and reduces inflammation, helping stabilize mood.
• Heart Health: Improves lipid profiles, lowers triglycerides, and supports healthy blood pressure.
• Vision & Eye Health: Maintains retinal integrity and promotes healthy visual processing.
• Anti-Inflammatory Action: Provides systemic inflammation relief, from joints to neural tissue.

Personal Experience – How It Feels

Many users report a noticeable lift in mental clarity within weeks of supplementation. Common experiences include:

• Sharper Focus: Improved attention span during tasks and study sessions.
• Elevated Mood: Subtle mood stabilization and reduced irritability.
• Steadier Energy: Less midday fatigue with sustained cognitive performance.
• Visual Acuity: Perception of clearer vision, especially during screen work.

Dosage Guidelines

AvailOM® DHA dosing varies based on goals. Below are recommended ranges:

Tip: Consistency is key—take daily at the same time to maintain steady DHA levels in membranes.

Side Effects & Precautions

• Mild Digestive Upset: Rare; usually alleviated by taking with food.
• Allergic Reactions: Possible in individuals sensitive to algal products.
• Bleeding Risk: High doses may increase bleeding time—avoid before surgery.

Key Clinical Studies

1. Enhancement of Memory in Older Adults: 120 adults aged 60–75 took 1000 mg DHA vs. placebo for 24 weeks. Results: +18% improvement in working memory and verbal recall. Takeaway: DHA maintains cognitive performance with aging.
2. Mood Improvement in Mild Depression: 80 participants with mild depression supplemented with 1000 mg DHA vs. placebo for 12 weeks. Results: 22% reduction in HAM-D scores vs. 8% placebo. Takeaway: Adjunctive support for mood stabilization.
3. Neuroinflammation Reduction in Animal Models: Mice with induced neuroinflammation received 300 mg/kg microalgal DHA for 28 days. Results: 50% lower microglial activation and cytokine levels. Takeaway: DHA tames brain inflammation.
4. Cardiovascular Benefits in At-Risk Adults: 100 subjects with high triglycerides took 1000 mg DHA vs. placebo for 16 weeks. Results: 34% triglyceride reduction and improved HDL. Takeaway: Validates DHA’s lipid-modulating effects.
5. Improvement in Visual Acuity in AMD Patients: 60 patients with early AMD supplemented with 500 mg DHA vs. placebo for 12 months. Results: 40% slower progression of visual decline. Takeaway: Neuroretinal protection and eye health.
6. Synaptic Plasticity Enhancement in Rodents: Rats given 200 mg/kg DHA daily for 6 weeks, then tested in mazes. Results: 25% faster maze completion and increased hippocampal BDNF expression. Takeaway: Boosts neuroplasticity and learning.
