Professional nutritional counseling during pregnancy provides personalized support for expectant mothers, aiming to preserve maternal health and support the healthy growth and development of the fetus. Meal plans are tailored to individual needs, health status, lifestyle and dietary habits, with regular monitoring of body weight and nutritional status.
Counseling includes:
- Guidance on macro- and micronutrient intake, with special attention to key nutrients such as folate, iron, calcium, vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids
- Strategies for preventing and managing potential pregnancy complications, including gestational diabetes and preeclampsia
- Dietary adjustments for common pregnancy challenges, such as nausea and vomiting
- Education on food safety and proper nutritional intake
The goal is to provide pregnant women with evidence-based, practical, and supportive guidance, empowering them to make informed dietary choices that promote the health of both mother and baby.
