In this period dietary supplements are crucial to meet the nutritional demand of the fetus and also to overcome certain gestational complications such as hypertension, diabetes, and anemia. Generally, the intake of micronutrients in the diet is low for women especially in developing countries while it becomes important during pregnancy as they enable uterus and placental growth, manage gestational obesity, and also avoid miscarriage. Research and clinical studies are in power in identifying various safe, plant bioactive substances, and efficient delivery systems to reduce morbidity and mortality rates of maternal, fetal, and neonatal. In recent years the growing awareness of nutraceuticals to fight against chronic diseases such as cancer, and heart disease has gained trust globally and is replacing pharmaceuticals. Knowledge of the macro- and micronutrients is necessary to modify the diet and supplement with nutraceuticals for the well-being of the mother and the fetus. The current chapter highlights the major health complications associated with pregnancy and the essential nutrients required during pregnancy and fetal growth with substantial clinical evidence. 2025 by Apple Academic Press, Inc.
