Abstract
Little support was found for a relationship between dietary intake of vitamin C and the development of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Low vitamin E intake was associated with a significant increase in the risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, even after adjustments were made for confounding factors. Further research is required to investigate whether supplementation above dietary intake of antioxidant vitamins influences the risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.
