The weekly docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) intake was calculated based on maternal dietary long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LCPUFA) intake surveyed at baseline (initial) and at days 30 and 60. The data are reported as Mean ± SD grams of DHA intake per week. The DHA intake for the supplemented group is shown in two ways; before (A) or after (B) adding DHA intake from the fish oil supplement. Statistical significance of DHA intake is indicated for A and B compared to control as pA and pB, respectively.
