Abstract : Pregnancy is a critical period in a woman's life where proper nutrition plays a pivotal role in maternal and foetal health. Therapeutic nutrition interventions during pregnancy have gained increasing attention due to their potential to prevent complications and promote optimal outcomes for both the mother and the developing foetus. This review aims to explore the importance of therapeutic nutrition in pregnancy by examining its impact on maternal health, foetal development, and long-term outcomes. Key aspects such as macronutrient and micronutrient requirements, dietary interventions, and their effects on pregnancy outcomes will be discussed. Additionally, the review will address the significance of nutritional counselling and education in prenatal care. Understanding the role of therapeutic nutrition in pregnancy is essential for healthcare providers to optimize maternal and foetal health outcomes.
