Can a superfood and simple therapy stop premature births and boost baby brains?

NCT ID NCT05949190

Summary

This study is testing two ways to help undernourished pregnant women in Sierra Leone have healthier pregnancies and babies. It is giving some women a special nutritional food with added brain-healthy fats and nutrients, while others get a standard food, to see if it helps prevent early births and improves infant brain development. It is also testing a simple talk therapy program to see if it can reduce depression during and after pregnancy.
