About The Study: The results of this study of nearly 7,800 women suggest that greater adherence to a Mediterranean diet pattern is associated with lower risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, with evidence of a dose-response association. Intervention studies are needed to assess whether dietary modification around the time of conception can reduce risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes and their downstream associations with future development of cardiovascular disease risk factors and overt disease.
