This study focuses on investigating the effects of dietary counseling on antioxidant intakes and how diet can influence reactive oxygen species levels and consequently oxidative stress during pregnancy. This study aims to evaluate oxidative stress biomarkers in pregnant women following online sessions focused on Mediterranean dietary intervention, compared to a control group receiving no dietary guidance. The findings are intended to support the development of targeted public health strategies to reduce the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) levels will be analyzed before and after the dietary counselling intervention in women's serum and will be quantified in millimolar (mM) units
Timeframe: From enrollment to the end of dietary counselling intervention at 12 weeks
Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) levels will be analyzed before and after the dietary counselling intervention in women's serum and will be expressed as millimolar Trolox equivalents (mmol/l)
Timeframe: From enrollment to the end of dietary counselling intervention at 12 weeks
