Nutritional knowledge and practices of low-income women during pregnancy: a qualitative study in two Oaxacan cities
Nutritional knowledge and practices during pregnancy are impacted by multiple social identities women have and different factors at the individual, group, and structural level. Future multi-level approaches in research and programming that take into consideration the individual, family members, and other social influences are needed to address the gaps in nutrition that women in Oaxaca go through during the prenatal period.
