"Human body! A Self healing miraculous machine"

During your pregnant days there are several things that might stress you, but eating should not be one of them. Healthy eating routines ensure appropriate growth and development of the little baby.

I am not trying to imply that you need a special chart, instead recommending that you include a variety of food to have a balanced nutrition.

Golden rules of eating in pregnancy -

·         Eat small frequent meals

·         Eat in moderation

·         Eat a balanced diet

Your wholesome diet should include -

Milk and milk products  as these are rich in calcium, protein and Vitamin B12

Did you know?

Milk has purifying properties and a milk cleanse is a great way to detox your body.

Milk not only re-hydrates the body, but provides a host of beneficial nutrients and protects your weak pregnant bones during these days!

Cereals, Pulses, Dal, Whole Grains and Nuts as these are a good source of proteins especially if you are a vegetarian.

Did you know?

A 2013 study in the Journal Pediatrics found that moms who ate peanuts and other tree nuts during their pregnancy had children born with a significantly lower incidence of nut allergies.

Dry Fruits, especially Dates and Walnuts after the second trimester.

Red-coloured fruits keep your heart strong

Dates apart from providing good nutrition ease labour and help you have a normal delivery!

Walnuts, they are the only nut that has omega-3 fatty acids!

(What is Omega-3? Omega-3 fatty acids are one of the "good" types of fat. They will help you have a brainy and intelligent baby. Isn't that awesome? But your body can't make them.You have to eat them or take supplements.)

Lots of fluids including Coconut Water

Did you know?

Drink coconut water anytime, but the best time is early in the morning. Electrolytes and Nutrients can be easily absorbed when your stomach is empty.

All Fruits and Vegetables except Papaya

Did you know?

Eating fruit during pregnancy could make your child smarter

Wondering why not papaya?

Unripe or even semi-ripen papaya has latex which may start uterine contractions - If uterine contracts then it encourages synthetic labor and this leads to miscarriage.
