Probiotic intake linked to fewer birth complications - Nutra USA, 9/13/11 -
"The Norwegian researchers analyzed data from 33,399 women participating in the
Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study ... The intake of
lactobacilli-containing milk-based products was determined using a food
frequency questionnaire, while pre-eclampsia was determined using the Norwegian
Medical Birth Registry ... the daily intake of at least 140 mL of probiotic milk
products was associated with a 20% reduced risk of pre-eclampsia ... The effects
were more pronounced for severe pre-eclampsia, with daily and weekly intakes of
probiotic products associated with a 39% and 25%, respectively" - [Abstract]

Dietary Supplement May Help Prevent Preeclampsia - WebMD, 5/19/11 -
"women
who ate daily food bars containing the amino acid L-arginine and antioxidant
vitamins during pregnancy had a much lower incidence of preeclampsia than women
who ate bars containing the antioxidant vitamins alone or bars containing
neither supplement ... far fewer of the women in the L-arginine plus vitamin
group developed preeclampsia (12.7%) than women in the vitamin-alone (22.5%)
group and no-supplement (30.2%) group" - See

A Nested
Case-Control Study of Midgestation Vitamin D Deficiency and Risk of Severe
Preeclampsia - J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2010 Aug 18 -
"Vitamin D may be
important in the pathogenesis of severe preeclampsia ... Midgestation maternal
25(OH)D concentration was lower in women who subsequently developed severe
preeclampsia compared with controls [median (interquartile range), 75 (47-107)
nmol/liter vs. 98 (68-113) nmol/liter; P = 0.01]. Midgestation maternal 25(OH)D
of less than 50 nmol/liter was associated with an almost 4-fold odds of severe
preeclampsia (unadjusted odds ratio, 3.63; 95% confidence interval, 1.52-8.65)
compared with midgestation levels of at least 75 nmol/liter. Adjustment for
known confounders strengthened the observed association (adjusted odds ratio,
5.41; 95% confidence interval, 2.02-14.52). Conclusion: Maternal midgestation
vitamin D deficiency was associated with increased risk of severe preeclampsia.
Vitamin D deficiency may be a modifiable risk factor for severe preeclampsia" -

Maternal Vitamin D Deficiency May Increase Risk for Preeclampsia -
Medscape, 6/3/08 - "Compared with controls, women
who subsequently developed preeclampsia had lower adjusted serum 25(OH)D
concentrations in early pregnancy (geometric mean, 45.4 vs 53.1 nmol/L; 95%
confidence interval [CI], 38.6 - 53.4 vs 47.1 - 59.9 nmol/L; P < .01) ...
After adjusting for potential confounders, a 50-nmol/L decrease in 25(OH)D
concentration was associated with twice the risk for preeclampsia (adjusted
odds ratio [OR], 2.4; 95% CI, 1.1 - 5.4). Compared with control newborns,
those of women with preeclampsia were twice as likely to have 25(OH)D
concentrations less than 37.5 nmol/L" - See
