The Big Idea
In Inchauspé's account, pregnancy is not a passive bun-in-the-oven state with fetal traits fixed at conception: maternal diet influences development through epigenetic switches. She links high maternal glucose to greater later vulnerability to diabetes and describes an association between gestational diabetes and psychiatric disorders, with inflammation proposed as a mechanism. Managing glucose spikes and getting enough choline, protein, and omega-3s are practical ways to support fetal development.
