Dr. Nandita Perumal - Nutrition During Pregnancy and Birth Outcomes - Annales Nestlé - Episode 19

Dr. Nandita Perumal highlights how balanced, diverse, and nutrient-rich diets are essential for healthy pregnancy outcomes. Increased energy and nutrient needs during pregnancy support maternal health, placental function, and fetal growth. Meeting, but not exceeding, these nutritional requirements helps ensure appropriate gestational weight gain and reduces the risk of adverse outcomes, supporting both maternal well-being and the child’s lifelong health trajectory.
