Is There DHA in Cow Milk?

Cow milk naturally does not contain significant amounts of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid).¹ However, some studies have shown that supplementing cows' diets with DHA-rich algae can increase the levels of DHA in their milk.² Additionally, some companies are also fortifying their cow milk with DHA. These dairy products are often marketed as having additional health benefits.

It is important to note that the DHA levels in cow milk can vary depending on the manufacturer. Therefore, it is best to check the product label to ensure the level of DHA present.
