A food frequency questionnaire and the Mediterranean Food Pattern were employed to assess dietary habits and MD adherence, respectively. Sleep quality was assessed with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) global score (n = 150; mean age 32.9 4.6 years). A higher consumption of fruits was associated with better sleep quality at the 16th gestational week (g.w.; p < 0.05). A greater olive oil consumption and a higherMD adherence were associated with better sleep quality at the 16th and 34th g.w. (all, p < 0.05). Contrarily, a higher red meat and subproducts consumption was associated with worse sleep quality at the 34th g.w. (p < 0.05). The group with the highest adherence to the MD (Tertile 3) showed better sleep quality than the group with the lowest adherence (Tertile 1) at the 16th and 34th g.w. (both, p < 0.05). A higher adherence to theMD, a greater intake of fruits and olive oil and a lower intake of red meat and subproducts were associated with better sleep quality along the pregnancy course, especially among sedentary women.}, organization = {Regional Ministry of Health of the Junta de Andalucia PI-0395-2016}, organization = {Research and Knowledge Transfer Fund (PPIT)}, organization = {Excellence Actions Programme: Scientific Units of Excellence (UCEES)}, organization = {Regional Ministry of Economy, Knowledge, Enterprises and University, European Regional Development Funds SOMM17/6107/UGR}, organization = {Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports FPU17/03715}, publisher = {Mdpi}, keywords = {Dietary pattern}, keywords = {Gestation}, keywords = {Diet}, keywords = {Sleep quality}, keywords = {Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index}, title = {Influence of Dietary Habits and Mediterranean Diet Adherence on Sleep Quality during Pregnancy.
