Resumo: | ObjectiveThis study assessed the impact of supplementing the diet of women during pregnancy and lactation with fish oil containing the omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid, and its influence on the composition of human milk. MethodsThe sample comprised 60 women aged 18 to 38 years with appropriate dietary pattern, all of them healthy and nonsmokers. The intervention consisted of a daily supplementation with fish oil capsules that corresponded to a daily intake of 315mg of docosahexaenoic acid and 80mg of eicosapentaenoic acid during the thirdtrimester of pregnancy and the first three months postpartum. The total fat content and fatty acid profile of their milk were determined by creamatocrit and gas chromatography. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis and the significance level was set at p<0.05. ResultsThere was no statistical difference between the fat contents of the study (fish oil capsules) and control (capsules containing corn starch as filler) groups. However, the milk of women taking fish oil contained higher docosahexaenoic and eicosapentaenoic acid levels 30 and 60 days after delivery. These results demonstrate that high omega-3 intake can influence its concentration in human milk. ConclusionsGiven the importance of docosahexaenoic acid in the neonatal period, it is appropriate for pregnant and breastfeeding women to supplement on long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, which may be done by adding fish oil to the regular diet. |

ObjetivoEste estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o impacto da suplementação na dieta de gestantes e de lactantes com ácidos graxos ômega-3 docosahexaenoico, sob a forma de óleo de peixe, e sua influência na composição do leite humano. MétodosA amostra foi constituída de 60 gestantes, com idade entre 18 e 38 anos, saudáveis, com padrão alimentar adequado e não fumantes. A intervenção consistiu na suplementação da dieta com cápsulas de óleo de peixe, totalizando um consumo diário de 315mg de ácido docosahexaenoico e 80mg de ácido eicosapentaenoico, no período entre o terceiro trimestre de gravidez e o terceiro mês após o parto. O teor de lipídeos totais e do perfil de ácidos graxos foi determinado pelos métodos de crematócrito e de cromatografia gasosa. Para a análise dos dados foi utilizada estatística descritiva e nível de significância de p<0,05. ResultadosEntre o grupo sujeito à dieta suplementada (cápsulas de óleo de peixe) e o grupo controle (cápsulas contendo amido de milho como excipiente), não se constatou diferença estatística quanto aos valores totais de lipídeos. Entretanto, no leite das mães do primeiro grupo, a suplementação com óleo de peixe mostrou teores mais elevados na concentração dos ácidos docosahexaenoico e eicosapentaenoico, nos tempos 30 e 60 dias, demonstrando que um maior consumo de ômega-3 pode influenciar na sua concentração no leite humano. ConclusãoConsiderando a importância do ácido docosahexaenoico no período neonatal, é adequado incrementar com ácidos graxos poliinsaturados de cadeia longa a alimentação de gestantes e de lactantes, o que pode ocorrer pela suplementação da dieta com óleo de peixe.
