Abstract

There is an urgent need for integrated, family-centered digital health solutions that offer culturally adapted dietary advice, trimester-specific guidance, and embedded psychological support. Hong Kong's sociocultural context provides an ideal setting for developing such interventions, with lessons applicable to other populations navigating tensions between tradition and modern healthcare.
