Maternal diet – A Direct Link of Child Development
The
Maternal diet during and before pregnancy is responsible for the weight,
colour, psychological health etc.
The diet
consumed by the female should be proper, as our researchers keep us updating
with the better healthcare facts and studies, here is the one again that low
carbohydrate diet leads the neural tube defects or can lead to various birth
defects.
Neural
tube defects are group of birth defects, spinal cord disformations,
malformations of the brain, spine, and spinal cord. In this the specialized
cells on the dorsal side of the embryo begin the change in their shape start developing
before birth and include spina bifida, wherein the spinal column does not close
completely, and anencephaly i.e.large portions of brain and skull are absent.
There
are two types of NTD’s: Open and Closed.
· Open NTD’s are when
the exposure of spinal cord occurs as defect through the malformations in the
skull. Some of the defects of open NTD’s are like anencephaly, encephaloceles,
hydranencephaly, iniencephaly, schizencephaly, and spina bifida.
·
Closed NTD’s are the
part of rare disease, it appears when the defect is through the skin some of
them are like ipomyelomeningocele, lipomeningocele, and tethered cord.
The folic acid, a carbohydrate can reduce the risk of NTDs in babies. As
this foliate can massively decrease the risk of NTD’s. All grains and cereals
should be enriched with 140 micrograms of folic acid per 100 grams of product
by January 1998, concluded by Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
This initiates the women to consume some supplements
of folic acid during pregnancy instead of consuming it naturally.
There is still much on this topic, to
develop a clear understanding of the mechanisms involved.
