Boosting baby brain power |
|
According to the Seafish Industry Authority there are some really good reasons for pregnant women to eat fish during pregnancy. Their brochure says: "Your baby's brain is almost completely built before birth and the remaining cells are formed within the first years of life. Eating seafood during pregnancy and while breast-feeding will help to boost your baby's brain development."
The brochure adds: "Oil-rich seafood such as mackerel and herring are great sources of the essential fatty acide Omega-3. Omega-3 is important for the development of your baby's brain, eyes and nervous system."
