During pregnancy, a woman’s physiological and metabolic demands increase significantly. Adequate maternal nutrition is essential to ensure the health and well-being of both the mother and the developing fetus. Conversely, deficiencies or excesses in nutrient intake can lead to pregnancy-related complications such as gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, anemia, and fetal growth restriction. This article explores the impact of maternal nutrition on pregnancy outcomes and highlights effective preventive strategies based on recent clinical and epidemiological studies.
