root systems, as well as glandular substances such as resins, gums, and volatile oils. Spices are a frequent food ingredient used to give food its distinctive flavor and color, to enhance the flavor, and in some cases, to serve as a preservative (Sofowora et al., 2013). Additionally, it has some therapeutic qualities that promote human wellness and can treat illnesses through the practice of traditional Indian medicine called Ayurveda. Civilizations such as India and Pakistan have long valued spices for their therapeutic qualities. Spices like turmeric, ginger, and clove are widely used in Ayurveda (Indian traditional medicine) and Unani (Pakistani traditional medicine), as their potential benefits for general health and well-being have long been understood. (Mohanty, 2017).<\/p>\n<p>Compounds like. flavonoids, terpenoids, lignans, sulfides,\npolyphenolics, carotenoids, coumarins, saponins, plant sterols,\nand phthalides are present in the majority of regularly used\nIndian spices. Additionally, pharmacological studies have\nrevealed that these compounds have anti-cancer, immunestimulating, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and antioxidant\nproperties. They also guard against heart conditions, conditions\nof the central nervous system, and other chronic illnesses. Due\nto their positive effects that are being documented daily against\nmany diseases, spices are receiving more attention in the present\nperiod (Ogbunugafor et al., 2017).

But the full\nconcept came into being as we know it in the 1930s, during this\nera substandard living conditions in infancy were linked to\npremature death, later.

Maternal and child undernutrition causes 3\u00b75 million\ndeaths annually, 11% of worldwide disability-adjusted lifeyears (DALYs), and more than one-third of the disease burden in children (less than 5 years of age). Optimum and balanced\nmaternal nutrition is indispensable for proper fetal development\nand growth (Barker &#038; Clark 1997). Nutritional factors and\nproteins present in milk promote fetal growth in pregnant\nwomen (Borazjani et al., 2013). Ignorance, poverty, food\ninsecurity, infectious diseases, lack of proper feeding practices\nfor infants and young children, and poor sanitation and hygiene\nlead to the prevailing high levels of child and maternal\nundernutrition in developing nations. Maternal undernutrition is\nhighly prevalent in the resource-poor countries of southeast\nAsia, sub-Saharan Africa, and south-central Asia. Its prevalence\nin South Asia ranges from 10 to 40% (Ahmed et al., 2012;\nJouanne et al., 2021). \t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c22a347 cmsmasters-block-default cmsmasters-sticky-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c22a347\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPakistan being a developing country, about 12.5%\npopulation (28 million) faced undernourishment, in 2021 (FAO,\n2021). In Pakistan, both lactating and pregnant women suffer\nfrom a higher prevalence of malnutrition (16.1%) than their\nnon-pregnant peers (12.5%). It is understood that undernutrition\nreduces a nation\u2019s economic progress by at least 8% resulting in\npoorer cognition, direct productivity losses, and reduced\nschooling. The enormity of children and maternal\nundernutrition in Pakistan is so much so that about one crore\nchildren in Pakistan face stunting, largely due to maternal\nundernutrition (UNICEF, 2022). To cope with this grave\nsituation, in 2014, the World Bank committed 47.95 million US\ndollars to improve the nutritional status of lactating and\npregnant women. A similar situation is prevalent for women and\nchildren in many developing countries (World Bank, 2014).\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c2a7363 cmsmasters-block-default cmsmasters-sticky-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c2a7363\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Maternal undernutrition has been proven to have a profound effect on fetal growth, with body weight and many key organs. It has been reported previously that during the first two weeks of pregnancy, the provision of a 5% protein diet only (undernutrition) led to a reduction in brain weight, size, and cortical thickness of the brain (Gressens et al., 1997). A severe gestational maternal protein restriction in rats caused a reduced number of glomeruli and hypertension in both male and female newborns, this hypertension is salt-sensitive and worsens with age, but is approximately equivalent in males and females (Woods et al., 2004)<\/p>\n<p>Chronic energy deficit or maternal undernutrition means<br \/>having a body mass index (BMI) below 18.5. If the females are<br \/>under-nourished females at the time of conception, then during<br \/>pregnancy (when there are additional demands due to the<br \/>growing fetus), they are unlikely to improve their nutritional<br \/>status. They are more likely to fail to gain sufficient weight<br \/>during pregnancy and are at a higher risk of mortality than wellnourished and healthy women (Smith et al., 2003).<\/p>\n<p>IUGR predisposes developing fetuses to reduced organ and<br \/>body weights. Most information about the long-term and short term effects of IUGR has come from animal models. In recent<br \/>years, many animal models of placental insufficiency and\/or<br \/>poor maternal nutrition have been developed to investigate the<br \/>causes and effects of IUGR. Both maternal dietary<br \/>manipulations and surgical interventions have been employed<br \/>for these studies. A number of animal species have been studied<br \/>for IUGR effects, including rodents, rabbits sheep, and primates<br \/>(Louey et al., 2000; Mitchell et al., 2004; Jonker et al., 2018).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kashif Iqbal, Bilal Aslam, Tanzila Sahar, Muhammad Rehan Sajid, Ifraha Abbas, Hina Nawab, Shamshad Ul Hassan &#038; Rida Asrar<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":27526,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"audio","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pmpro_default_level":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[35],"post_template":[50],"top_category":[],"class_list":["post-27525","post","type-post","status-publish","format-audio","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-complementary-and-alternative-medicine","tag-complementary-and-alternative-medicine","post_format-post-format-audio","post_template-podcast-2","pmpro-has-access"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27525","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27525"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27525\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27531,"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27525\/revisions\/27531"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27526"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27525"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27525"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27525"},{"taxonomy":"post_template","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/post_template?post=27525"},{"taxonomy":"top_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/badartrader.com\/lms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/top_category?post=27525"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
