On average, pregnant and nursing women in the U.S. consume 60-80 mg of DHA a day, from food and drink, which is only 20-25% of the recommended intake.* That's why DHA is one of the most important supplements for pregnancy.
The spinal cord coordinates the body's movement and sensation. Therefore, an injured cord loses the ability to send and receive messages from the brain to the body's systems that control sensory, motor, and autonomic function below the level of injury. Often, this results in some level of paralysis.
Signs and symptoms of tumors affecting the spinal cord may include: 1  Back pain, sometimes radiating to other parts of your body. 2  Loss of sensation, especially in your arms or legs. 3  Difficulty walking, sometimes leading to falls.  Decreased sensitivity to pain, heat and 1  cold. Loss of bowel or bladder function.
