Quality nutrition is vital for fetal growth and maternal health, because the nutritional status of the fetus is directly affected by the mother’s nutritional intake. A lack of certain nutrients can lead to unfavorable consequences for both the fetus and mother. The intake of nutritional supplements is increasing worldwide.
Korea has been experiencing population aging and low birth rate and has shown an increasing interest in nutritional supplements for pregnant women. This review discusses the 5 critical nutrients for pregnant women as determined by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety in 2021, namely folic acid, iron, omega-3, vitamin D, and calcium. This review determined the upper safety limits of these nutritional supplements for pregnant women based on previous researches. Obstetricians and other physicians should be consulted regarding the nutritional supplements recommended for pregnant women.
