26 Feb 2019 --- Daily supplementation of 600mg of DHA omega 3 fatty acid during pregnancy can help prevent the development of high blood pressure in obese or overweight offspring in early childhood. This is according to research from the University of Kansas (KU) and the KU Medical Center, published in JAMA Network. The researchers seek to further explore the way “developmental programming” – how prenatal environment impacts a fetus’ metabolism – works in preventing disease, such as obesity, later in life.
