DHA Supplementation for Lactating Mothers of Preterm Infants

Dr. Christina Valentine discusses her NIH funded research on DHA supplementation for lactating mothers of premature infants. They have shown that 1000 mg of DHA daily taken by the mother decreases preterm infant inflammation through human breast milk ingestion. She has also demonstrated a decreased rate of preterm birth when mothers take higher dose DHA supplementation during pregnancy. This podcast was supported by Reckitt/Mead Johnson Nutrition.
