High Quality ProteinHigh Quality Protein

• Protein needed for growth and maintenance

• Seafood contains all 9 essential amino acids

• Protein is highly digestible

• Fish contain 16-27 grams of protein

• Omega-3s and pregnancy– During last trimester of pregnancy

•Rapid synthesis of brain tissue•Omega-3s and premature infants

– Risk factor for preterm delivery and low birth weight

•Omega-3s and the newborn– DHA is influenced by the mother’s diet
