Diet is a critical factor for the development of both embryo and fetus, as well as maternal health. In particular, two natural molecules have been shown to exert beneficial effects on fertility, pregnancy wellness and embryo development: myo-inositol and melatonin, whose requirements increase during pregnancy. In the present review, we summarize the most important functions of melatonin and myo-inositol on male and female reproductive systems (oocyte quality and development, sperm quality), on the maintenance of a physiological pregnancy and on embryo development.
饮食对于胚胎和胎儿的发育以及母体健康都是至关重要的因素。特别是，有两种天然分子已被证明对生育能力、妊娠健康和胚胎发育具有有益作用：肌醇和褪黑素，它们在怀孕期间的需求量会增加。在本综述中，我们总结了褪黑素和肌醇对男性和女性生殖系统（卵子质量和发育、精子质量）、维持生理妊娠和胚胎发育的最重要功能。
