Recognizing that: • The global burden of maternal and child undernutrition remains unconscionably large, and is the single greatest constraint facing global development efforts. • A renewed and strengthened evidence base exists for a set of essential nutrition interventions that if effectively targeted to mothers and children from conception to two years of age, could prevent at least a quarter...

Sub-Saharan African countries have recorded poor statistical indices of nutritional progress more than any other continent, except in a few cases when compared with some Asian countries. High incidences of maternal and infant morbidity and mortality have dotted the landscape in this region, with myriads of challenges. Poor maternal and infant nutrition have been associated directly and indirect...

Vancouver, BC, Tuesday, October 6, 2015— The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) announced today at the XXI World Congress of Gynecology and Obstetrics important guidelines aimed at improving maternal health, decreasing the incidence of maternal, fetal and neonatal morbidity and reducing the burden of non-communicable diseases globally. These two sets of guidelines prov...

BackgroundPoor nutritional status and inadequate food intake during and prior to pregnancy not only effects women’s health but also have negative impacts on growth and development of fetus. The birth weight of infant is a powerful predictor of growth and survival of infant and is dependent on maternal health and nutritional status. Maternal nutritional status, pre-pregnancy weight, body-mass-in...

The developmental origins of health and disease hypothesis postulates that exposure to a less than optimal maternal environment during fetal development programmes physiological function, and determines risk of disease in adult life. Much evidence of such programming comes from retrospective epidemiological cohorts, which demonstrate associations between birth anthropometry and non-communicable...

Adequate maternal nutritional status before and during pregnancy is important for healthy pregnancy outcomes [1]. Poor maternal nutrition is associated with intrauterine growth restriction, low birth weight, and preterm birth, and it increases the risk of neonatal deaths [2], as well as post-natal stunting [3]. In low and middle income countries (LMICs), diets of pregnant women are predominantl...

The Alberta Pregnancy Outcomes and Nutrition (APrON) study is an ongoing prospective cohort study that recruits pregnant women early in pregnancy and, as of 2012, is following up their infants to 3 years of age. It has currently enrolled approximately 5000 Canadians (2000 pregnant women, their offspring and many of their partners). The primary aims of the APrON study were to determine the relat...

Over recent decades there has been a rapid rise in metabolic disorders throughout the world. Whilst lifestyle and societal habits have contributed to the obesity epidemic, there is now increasing evidence that the early developmental environment of an infant can play a pivotal role in the 'programming' of an adverse physiological phenotype in later life. Clinical evidence highlights that matern...

Maternal effects have wide-ranging effects on life-history traits. Here, using the crustacean Daphnia magna, we document a new effect: maternal food quantity affects offspring feeding rate, with low quantities of food triggering mothers to produce slow-feeding offspring. Such a change in the rate of resource acquisition has broad implications for population growth or dynamics and for interactio...
