A. True
B. False



Answer :

Final answer:

Pregnant women should not double their caloric intake, but consume additional calories as needed to support the fetus's growth.


Explanation:

False: A pregnant woman should not double her caloric intake but rather consume an additional 200-450 calories per day, depending on the trimester, to support the fetus's growth. Doubling the intake can lead to excessive weight gain, posing risks to both the mother and the baby. The additional calories should come from nutrient-dense foods such as whole grains, fruits, and vegetables to meet the increased energy needs.
