Description
Elisabet Fernandez-Gomez and colleagues studied 306 pregnant women in Melilla, Spain, in 2026 to link eating patterns with pregnancy weight gain and nutrient adequacy. Too much or too little gain raises risks for mother and child, and the team scored diets from food questionnaires against weight change and vitamin and mineral intake.
A Mediterranean pattern tracked with steadier weight gain and better fiber and vitamin B12, D, and E intake, while a Western pattern tracked with higher gain. The paper supports Mediterranean-style eating advice during pregnancy, delivered through clear health education.
