Why is special attention given to energy, protein, and micronutrients during pregnancy?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To support the nutritional needs of the mother and developing fetus

Pregnancy involves growth and development of the fetus, formation of the placenta, expansion of maternal tissues and blood volume, and preparation for childbirth and breastfeeding. These processes increase the importance of adequate energy, high-quality protein, iron, folate, iodine, calcium, vitamin D, and other nutrients. Requirements should be met through a balanced, safe, and appropriately planned diet rather than indiscriminate overeating or removal of food groups.
