Abstract

The gestational period is marked by an intense anabolic process. Weeks after conception, the placenta is already formed and begins to secrete important hormones related to the metabolism of various nutrients. These alter maternal metabolism, promote fetal growth, and prepare the mother for labor and lactation (HARREITER J. et al.,2006).
