A cross-sectional study of fatty acids and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in human milk from lactating women following vegan, vegetarian, and omnivore diets

Purpose Essential fatty acids are critical for brain growth and neurodevelopment in infancy. Maternal diet and supplement use have a significant impact on the fat composition of human milk. The objective of this study is to assess supplement utilization patterns and fatty acid and brain-derived neur...

description Purpose Essential fatty acids are critical for brain growth and neurodevelopment in infancy. Maternal diet and supplement use have a significant impact on the fat composition of human milk. The objective of this study is to assess supplement utilization patterns and fatty acid and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) concentrations in the breast milk of women following vegan, vegetarian, and omnivore diet patterns. Methods This is a cross-sectional, observational study of 74 lactating women in the United States following a vegan ( n  = 26), vegetarian ( n  = 22), or omnivore ( n  = 26) diet pattern. A single breast milk sample was collected from each participant and assessed for fatty acids and BDNF. Results Median unsaturated fatty acids in the breast milk of vegan, vegetarian, and omnivores, as a percentage of total fatty acids, was 66.0, 57.8, and 56.2%, respectively ( p

Results Median unsaturated fatty acids in the breast milk of vegan, vegetarian, and omnivores, as a percentage of total fatty acids, was 66.0, 57.8, and 56.2%, respectively ( p  &lt; 0.001). Total omega-3 percentages were 2.29% for vegans, 1.55% for vegetarians, and 1.46% for omnivores ( p  &lt; 0.001). Docosahexaenoic acid percentages were not different by diet pattern, but over 80% of participants had milk concentrations below 0.30% of total fatty acids. Reports of omega-3 supplements use (10/74) and weekly seafood consumption (3/74) were limited. BDNF was not detectable in any samples. Conclusions Breast milk from vegans had significantly higher unsaturated fat and total omega-3 fats, and lower saturated fats, trans fats, and omega-6 to omega-3 ratios than their vegetarian and omnivore counterparts. Docosahexaenoic acid concentrations in breast milk were low regardless of maternal diet pattern, and were reflective of low seafood intake and supplement use.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1436-6207</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1436-6215</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1007/s00394-018-1793-z</identifier><identifier>PMID: 30051170</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Berlin/Heidelberg: Springer Berlin Heidelberg</publisher><subject>Adult ; Baby foods ; Brain-derived neurotrophic factor ; Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor - metabolism ; Breast milk ; Breastfeeding &amp; lactation ; Chemistry ; Chemistry and Materials Science ; Cross-Sectional Studies ; Diet ; Diet - methods ; Diet, Vegan - methods ; Diet, Vegetarian - methods ; Dietary supplements ; Docosahexaenoic acid ; Fatty acids ; Fatty Acids, Essential - metabolism ; Female ; Humans ; Lactation ; Milk, Human - metabolism ; Nutrient deficiency ; Nutrition ; Original Contribution ; Seafood ; Vegetarian diet ; Vegetarianism ; Womens health</subject><ispartof>European journal of nutrition, 2019-09, Vol.58 (6), p.2401-2410</ispartof><rights>Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2018</rights><rights>European Journal of Nutrition is a copyright of Springer, (2018).
