Journal ArticleDOI

Fish oil supplementation in pregnancy and lactation may decrease the risk of infant allergy

TL;DR: Maternal intake of omega‐3 (ω‐3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) during pregnancy has decreased, possibly contributing to a current increased risk of childhood allergy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Allergic disease in infants up to 2 years of age in relation to plasma omega-3 fatty acids and maternal fish oil supplementation in pregnancy and lactation.

TL;DR: Allergic disease in infants up to 2 years of age in relation to plasma omega‐3 fatty acids and maternal fish oil supplementation in pregnancy and lactation and Pediatr Allergy Immunol 2011; 22: 505–514.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human milk polyunsaturated long-chain fatty acids and secretory immunoglobulin A antibodies and early childhood allergy.

TL;DR: Investigation of the composition of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and secretory immunoglobulin A (S‐IgA) levels to food proteins and an inhalant allergen (cat) in milk from mothers of allergic and non‐allergic children showed that changes in the levels of milk PUFA were reflected in changes in PUFA serum phospholipids, particularly for the n‐6 PUFA.
Journal ArticleDOI
