Healthy diet during pregnancy associated with reduced risk of infant colic and eczema

Infants born to mothers who ate a healthy, Mediterranean-style diet during pregnancy were at lower risk for colic and eczema, according to a new study by researchers at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institute.

The researchers also found that regularly consuming seafood during pregnancy helped lower an infant's risk for these conditions.
