| Abstract: | Background:
Suboptimal dietary intake during pregnancy is associated
with various adverse health outcomes. Many pregnant women
lack sufficient knowledge of both nutrition and food safety,
which can impact their food choices. Currently, no culturally
relevant tool exists to assess these areas of knowledge
specifically for Mediterranean populations, highlighting the
need for such an instrument. Objective: This study aims to develop and validate the Pregnancy Nutrition and Food Safety Questionnaire (PREG-NFS-Q), designed to measure maternal nutrition and food safety knowledge in pregnant women in a Mediterranean setting. |
