    Abstract Diet is a critical factor for the development of both embryo and fetus, as well as maternal health. In particular, two natural molecules have been shown to exert beneficial effects on fertility, pregnancy wellness and embryo development: myo-inositol and melatonin, whose requirements increase during pregnancy. In the present review, we summarize the most important functions of melatonin and myo-inositol on male and female reproductive systems (oocyte quality and development, sperm quality), on the maintenance of a physiological pregnancy and on embryo development.
