Nutrition During Pregnancy
Show Notes
There is no greater time in life when nutrition becomes of utmost importance than pregnancy, simply because you are literally building another human being using vitamins, minerals & nutrients you get from food. In this Epidsode of The Nourished Wrap Podcast Katie & Jess discuss the key nutrients in pregnancy that aren’t made aware of enough in modern society, why pregnancy care should start way before even falling pregnant, foods to eat to support a healthy pregnancy & Jess share’s a secret with you all (any guesses?). Jess opens up about the very real struggle of food cravings & trying to manage morning sickness when the last thing you feel like eating is a big nutrient dense salad. A real insight into sensible pregnancy care, this episode is for anyone who is currently pregnant, trying to conceive or just wants a family of their own in the near or late future. As you will learn the health of a pregnancy starts months before conception!
