Earlier this week, we learned that giving babies acetaminophen can potentially up their risk for having asthma -- and now it looks like there's something else in infancy that may contribute to asthma problems as well. Researchers have found a link between when babies eat fish and their chance of developing asthma-like symptoms down the road. Babies who were given fish after the age of 6 months and before they turned 1 had a lower asthma risk than infants who were fed fish before they turned 6 months -- or after they turned a year old. (Huh?)Image may be NSFW.
