197: the effect of fish-oil supplementation on maternal and neonatal outcomes: a triple blind randomized controlled trial
Conclusion:
Although low dose fish oil supplementation increased birth weight, its effect was not statistically significant. The frequency of LBW was significantly reduced in the intervention group but the observed reduction needs to be confirmed in future larger investigations using different doses of omega-3.
