Requirement: RDA of energy for a moderately active pregnant woman (ICMR, 2010).
Recommended Intake: According to ICMR (2010), the RDA for energy for a moderately active pregnant woman is 2580 kcal per day.
This value accounts for the increased metabolic demands and physiological changes occurring during pregnancy to support both maternal health and fetal development.
