There were 222 samples with purposive sampling. The data were obtained through questionnaires and the interview results were used as secondary data. The data were analyzed using the Chi-square test, odds ratio (OR) with confidence intervals (CI) of 95%, and the alpha value of 0.05.</span></p> </div> <div> <p class="Pa15"><strong><span lang="EN-US">RESULTS:</span></strong><span lang="EN-US"> The analysis of the nutritional adequacy with the incidence of pre-eclampsia confirmed that the carbohydrate with OR of 5.250 (OR = 3.545, 95% CI = 2.098, 13.158), folic acid (OR = 16,838, 95% CI = 2.222, 127.64), and vegetable (OR of 4.00, 95% CI = 1.619, 9.885) which are related to the incidence of pre-eclampsia.</span></p> </div> <div><strong>CONCLUSION: </strong>The fulfillment of the daily nutrition of pregnant women is greatly influenced by the culture and myth developed in society.
