Abstract

Pregnancy is one of the most 'critical and unique' period in a woman's life cycle. Nutritional status of the pregnant woman influences the state and future course of development of offspring. Poor maternal nutrition is reported to be one of the major determinants for intrauterine growth retardation in both developed and developing countries.
