Abstract

p = 0.4) or PI (2.7± 0.0 vs 2.7± 0.0, p = 0.53) in the HE vs LGI groups respectively. The prevalence of infants who were small or large for gestational age was similar in both groups (p = 0.81). In multivariate regression analysis, dietary glycaemic load (GI x carbohydrate content) was the only significant dietary predictor (p = 0.046) of the primary outcomes after adjustment for type of delivery (spontaneous, Caesarean or instrumental) and gender, but explained less than 1% of the variation. A low intensity dietary intervention in pregnancy with either a low GI or conventional healthy diet does not influence pregnancy outcomes in healthy women.
