Having a healthy pregnancy with the birth of a healthy child is the goal of the entire process that involves this phase. Nutrology is important in this context to reduce the risk of future chronic diseases in the child and unfavorable outcomes for the pregnant woman and the fetus. Lifestyle change generates a positive impact on every phase of life in which it is carried out. But it is known that changes in parents at least 3 months before conception, during pregnancy, and breastfeeding are related to the improvement in the quality of gametes and the expression of healthy genes. Food consumption is increasingly far from ideal. There was an increase in the consumption of ultraprocessed foods and a decrease in natural foods. Thus, the recommended dietary intake is not achieved by a large part of the Brazilian population. Therefore, it is necessary to supplement mainly during pregnancy due to increased needs. Therefore, the present study carried out a concise systematic review to list the main clinical approaches to the effects of adequate nutrition and lifestyle changes in human pregnancy.
