Abstract

Nutrition plays a major role in maternal and child health and it is widely recognized that optimum nutrition in early life is the foundation for long-term health. A healthy maternal dietary pattern, along with adequate maternal body composition, metabolism and placental nutrient supply, reduces the risk of maternal, fetal mortality and morbidity and long-term effects in the offspring. While under-nutrition is mainly an issue of low-income countries, malnutrition, due to poor quality diet, is becoming a global health problem.
