[Some nutritional habits of pregnant women]

Abstract

The aim of the project was to evaluate diets of pregnant women. The research, whose tool was a voluntary questionnaire, was undertaken in 2005, among a group of a hundred randomly chosen pregnant women ranging in age from 23 to 32. A great degree of inappropriateness of their diets was revealed: too low intake of vegetables, fruit, dairy produce, proteins. Of all the women surveyed, a low percentage introduced folic acid (27%) and products rich in iron (17%) into their diets. The women stated that they both had limited coffee intake and started drinking milk.
