Explanation:
1. Fat requirements are unchanged during pregnancy and should account for about 20 to 35 of daily caloric intake, of which 10 or less should be saturated fat.
2. Iron requirements increase during pregnancy because of the growth of the fetus and placenta and the increased maternal blood volume.
3. The protein requirement for a pregnant woman is 60 g/day, an increase of 14 g over nonpregnant levels.
4. The recommended daily allowance (RDA) for vitamin K, 90 mcg per day, does not increase during pregnancy.
5. The recommended daily allowance (RDA) during pregnancy for pyridoxine is 1.9 mg/day, an increase of 0.6 mg over the allowance for nonpregnant women.
