Fetal and Neonatal Levels of Omega-3: Effects on Neurodevelopment, Nutrition, and Growth by Juliana Rombaldi Bernardi, Renata de Souza Escobar, Charles Francisco Ferreira, Patrícia Pelufo Silveira

“…Evidence from animal models of dietary n-3 LCPUFAs deficiency suggests that these fatty acids promote early brain development and regulate behavioral and neurochemical aspects related to mood disorders (stress responses, depression, and aggression and growth, memory, and cognitive functions). Preclinical and clinical studies suggest the role of n-3 LCPUFAs on neurodevelopment and growth. n-3 LCPUFAs may be an effective adjunctive factor for neural development, growth, and cognitive development, but further large-scale, well-controlled trials and preclinical studies are needed to examine its clinical mechanisms and possible benefits. …”
