General characteristics

Pregnancy is the most important and significant period in a woman's life, during which the condition of her baby is very closely related to her own condition. Excessive weight gain can lead to problems both during pregnancy and at the time of childbirth. Therefore, it is important to:

– adhere to a normal eating regimen, which consists of a simple, varied, balanced diet, and consume foods with a low fat content (alternating between meat, fish, vegetables, eggs, broad-leaf greens, fruits, cereals, etc.);

– do not eat large amounts of food for dinner, deeply processed, fried and fatty foods: eating foods high in carbohydrates (sugar, bread, flour products, etc.) can lead to diabetes in people who are prone to this disease;

– completely eliminate alcoholic beverages from the diet.

How do the body's needs change? Throughout pregnancy, the need for vitamins, minerals and lipids increases. The need for proteins also increases, while the need for carbohydrates remains the same. Women should always, and especially from the moment of conception and until the end of breastfeeding, follow a diet that meets the requirements set by the National and International Dietary Guidelines (LARN).

What is LARN?

LARN - Index levels of nutrient intake and their energy value for the Italian population - offers a set of Dietary Reference Values (DRV) for the population and for the individual healthy person. They are based on the criteria defined by SINU. The Italian Society for Human Nutrition (SINU) is a scientific non-profit society that brings together scientists and experts in the field of nutrition who study the various chemical, molecular, genetic, biochemical, physiological, psychological, cognitive-behavioral, clinical, technological, educational, economic, political and social aspects of food consumption, with the aim of studying nutrition issues from the perspective of different sciences and in different areas of interest.
