Prenatal, pregnancy or postnatal - What to eat to support your body and your baby
Consuming the right nutrients for your body whilst trying to conceive or during pregnancy and after, is key to maintaining a healthy balanced system.
You’ll want to support your body as much as possible by ensuring that you’re eating well. By sticking to a healthy balanced diet of complete proteins, calcium rich foods, whole grains, fruit and vegetables will help you during the perinatal period. Other nutrients such as maca powder, folic acid, zinc, iron, probiotics and choline found in foods will help you and your baby on your journey.
