Is A Pregnancy Diet Important?

Eating a healthy diet during pregnancy may be more important than you think. According to a new study that followed 2,700 children from birth to age 4, those whose mothers most closely kept to a strict Mediterranean diet during pregnancy were 32% less likely to experience an abnormal growth pattern through age 4. Dr. Dora Romaguera, who authored the study, stated “These results support the hypothesis that a healthy diet during pregnancy can have a beneficial effect for child development.”
