Abstract
Maternal nutrition is pivotal for maternal and offspring health, influencing fetal programming, disease susceptibility, and neurodevelopment. This research highlights the impact of dietary patterns and micronutrient intake on gestational diabetes, addressing global deficiencies, and the role of the maternal gut microbiota. Effective nutritional interventions for obesity, considerations for vegetarian diets, and the crucial link between maternal nutrition and mental health are also explored. Food insecurity poses a significant risk to maternal outcomes. Collectively, these findings underscore the complex and multifaceted importance of maternal nutritional status for optimal health outcomes for both mother and child.
