Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigated a mother-birth cohort, a population for which information is limited in Japan. The diet and lifestyle of a pregnant woman can positively or negatively influence the health of both the mother and child. In this study, we investigated the nutritional and health characteristics, dietary behavior, lifestyle, educational background, and annual income of pregnant women with the aim of describing health maintenance and enhancement in this cohort. We also assessed maternal dietary fiber and folate intakes, serum folate and PCB levels from maternal blood samples, and questionnaire results to study the association between maternal dietary factors and fetal effects. Our findings suggest that new approaches to nutrition guidelines aimed at maternal health maintenance and enhancement would be useful.
