Description
Higher adherence to the Mediterranean diet during pregnancy may be related to offspring cord blood DNA methylation. In a meta-analysis of epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS) in 2802 mother-child pairs from 5 cohorts we calculated the relative Mediterranean diet (rMED) score and an adjusted rMED excluding alcohol (rMEDp). rMEDp was associated with cord blood DNA methylation at cg23757341.
