Article Synopsis
- A study with 1,482 women examined if following the Mediterranean diet before pregnancy influences their weight gain during pregnancy.
- * Women who strictly followed this diet were more likely to gain weight within the recommended limits set by the Institute of Medicine (IOM).
- * The research suggested that women with low adherence to the Mediterranean diet had nearly double the risk of excessive weight gain during pregnancy, highlighting the need for larger studies to confirm these results.
