Preeclampsia
- Pre-eclampsia affects 3%-5% of pregnant women worldwide
- Associated with a range of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes, including
- Maternal and/or fetal death
- Particularly affects those with
- Chronic hypertension,
- Pregestational diabetes mellitus
- Family history of pre-eclampsia
- Diet or dietary supplements may affect the risk
- No effect on risk
- Vitamins C and E, magnesium, salt, o-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (fish oils) and zinc
- Body mass index
- Is proportionally correlated with pre-eclampsia risk
- Apparent benefit of dietary modifications resulting from
- Increased consumption of fruits and vegetables (?400 g/day)
- Plant-based foods and vegetable oils
- Limited intake of foods high in fat, sugar and salt
- Consuming a high-fibre diet (25-30 g/day) may attenuate dyslipidaemia and reduce blood pressure and inflammation
- Nutrients that may mitigate the risk include
- Increased calcium intake,
- Daily multivitamin/mineral supplement
- Adequate vitamin D status
- Those with a low selenium intake (such as those living in Europe), fish/seafood intake could be increased to improve selenium intake or selenium could be supplemented in the recommended multivitamin/mineral supplement.
- Milk-based probiotics have also been found to be beneficial in pregnant women at risk.
