Nutrient intakes of pregnant and lactating women in Indonesia and Malaysia: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Optimizing dietary intake during pregnancy and lactation is crucial to the growth and development of children and their lifelong health.

The nutrient intakes of pregnant and lactating women were quantitatively analyzed to calculate the percentage of adequacy using national recommended daily allowances or nutrient intakes (RDA/RNI) and estimated average requirements (EAR) for micronutrients. Standardized mean differences (SMD) between dietary intake and RDA/RNI were
