Why are energy and micronutrient needs given special attention during pregnancy?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To support the needs of the mother and foetus

Pregnancy involves growth of the foetus, development of the placenta, expansion of maternal tissues, and changes in blood volume and metabolism. Adequate energy and nutrients such as iron, folate, iodine, calcium, protein, and other micronutrients support maternal health and foetal development. Requirements should be assessed individually and met through a balanced, safe diet.
