Topic 6.1
What is the impact of maternal nutrition during pregnancy on child's physical development?
Poor maternal nutrition can lead to low birth weight and developmental issues in children.
A mother's nutrient intake has no direct impact on a child's growth; it all depends on the child's own nutritional intake after birth.
Regardless of maternal nutrition, all babies are born with an equal potential for physical growth and maturity.
Maternal diet only affects the child’s food preferences, not their physical development.
