According to a study from Linkoping University in Sweden, Omega-3 fatty acids have a protective effect on allergies in children. For one year olds whose mothers had ingested fish oil during pregnancy and beastfeeding, there were considerably fewer incidences of allergic reactions compared with children whose mothers did not take the supplement. Since starting in 2005, the study comprised of 145 pregnant mothers with families at heightened risk of developing asthma and allergy. From the 25th week of pregnancy through the third month of nursing, they were asked to take nine capsules of fish oil every day. Half of them were given fish oil with high levels of omega-3 fatty acids while the other half were given a placebo in the form of a soybean pill.
