First, let us understand the importance of a nutrient dense diet. |

The nutrient requirements during pregnancy increases.
This is mainly for the development of the cells. Nutrient dense diet supports the growth and development of the fetus. Therefore, it is important to consume a well nourished diet. |

Along with intake of nutritious diet, its nutrient absorption is also important.
Phytates, oxalates and tannins present in the food affect nutrient absorption. |
