Effects of two weekly servings of cod for 16 weeks in pregnancy on maternal iodine status and infant neurodevelopment: Mommy's Food, a randomized controlled trial.

Conclusions Increased cod intake during pregnancy improved the iodine status in women with mild-to-moderate iodine deficiency, however, did not affect thyroid function. The negative effect on cognition should be followed up to assess whether this is a stable effect over time. More studies are warranted to enable good health advice on iodine nutrition in pregnancy.
