Abstract

Micronutrient supplementation is a key factor for physiological pregnancy and directly correlates with positive maternal outcomes, has a direct impact on neonatal health and subsequent development. A relationship was found between the insuff icient supply of mothers with nutrients and preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, neural tube defects, skeletal deformities, and low birth weight. Multicomponent vitamin and mineral complexes intended to use in the pregravid period, during pregnancy, and lactation allow the entry of essential micronutrients, such as iron, folates and other B vitamins, iodine, zinc, and antioxidants, into the body at the physiological daily requirements. This review presents current evidence regarding the needs for macronutrients and micronutrients during pregnancy, the risks and consequences of their deficiency, and the impact of additional exogenous intake on pregnancy outcomes.
