NCT ID NCT05119868
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing whether following a Mediterranean diet during pregnancy can reduce the chance of children developing allergies by age 2. Researchers are enrolling 276 healthy pregnant women (ages 20-35) who are at risk of having a baby with allergies. Participants receive personalized nutrition counseling and a tailored Mediterranean diet plan. The main goal is to see if this dietary approach lowers allergy rates in the offspring.
