Maternal intake of seafood and omega-3 fatty acids and preterm birth
Data from a prospective population-based pregnancy cohort in Norway. Maternal seafood consumption was associated with lower risk of preterm delivery while supplementary long chain omega-3 fatty acids was associated with reduced prevalence of early preterm delivery (before 32 weeks of gestation).
Any intake of seafood above no/rare consumption was associated with lower prevalence of preterm delivery.
