Long chain polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation in infants born at term.

CONCLUSIONS: Most of the included RCTs reported no beneficial effects or harms of LCPUFA supplementation on neurodevelopmental outcomes of formula-fed full-term infants and no consistent beneficial effects on visual acuity. Routine supplementation of full-term infant milk formula with LCPUFA cannot be recommended at this time. PMID: 28281303 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
