Previous studies have shown that family income, education and pregnancy body mass index (BMI) were associated with nutrient inadequacy [3,12,13]. In addition to these demographic and socioeconomic factors, occurrence of violence events stemming from social conflict can cause failure of food supplies and a worsening of health service systems [14,15]. An association between conflict situations within a community and malnutrition has been demonstrated in 21 countries in sub-Saharan Africa [16]. It is not unlikely then that a conflict situation in a community may influence nutrient inadequacy of the pregnant women who live there.
