It’s not what you think… 🍭!

👻 gestational diabetes? Pair your candy with protein + fat, or let it be your carb!

✨ Reminder: desserts can fit into a healthy diet, today and every day. Nutrition isn’t about one food choice, it’s about the bigger picture.

When we restrict foods we love, it often leads to overindulging later. But when you give yourself permission to enjoy them (without guilt or labels), everything changes.

✨ Been up late Googling what’s safe to eat during pregnancy?? You’re not alone and that’s exactly why I created @theprenatalnutritionlibrary app.

With just one search, you’ll get quick, science-backed answers on any food, beverage, or ingredient, so you can stop stressing and start feeling confident about your choices.

Are the pregnancy food rules still a thing while you’re breastfeeding??

Often, much of pregnancy nutrition focuses on “foods to avoid,” so you may wonder if these still apply after pregnancy!

👉🏼 First, be sure to check out past posts dispelling myths about “foods to avoid” during pregnancy — the list is MUCH shorter than most are led to believe!

In general, there are no foods someone needs to avoid during postpartum. If postpartum and breastfeeding, this also remains true with a few exceptions.

✨ Why Ovasitol? Let’s break it down 👇🏼

Ovasitol combines the two most common forms of inositol (myo-inositol + D-chiro-inositol) in the exact ratio naturally found in your body.

Here’s why it’s a game-changer for blood sugar + insulin resistance:
🔸Lowers blood sugar levels – Ideal for insulin resistance in PCOS, type 2 diabetes, or gestational diabetes.
🔸Balances blood sugar spikes – Helps bring high levels (hyperinsulinemia) back to normal ranges.
🔸 Improves insulin sensitivity – Your body uses insulin more efficiently, meaning less is needed to regulate blood sugar.
🔸 More effective than Metformin – Studies show inositol can outperform Metformin in improving insulin sensitivity.

👉🏼 Remember, Ovasitol is just one tool in your blood sugar balance toolkit, but it’s a powerful one!

These are all heme sources of iron….the kind fou

These are all heme sources of iron….the kind found in animal foods that your body absorbs most efficiently!

🌱 Some plants (like lentils, spinach, and pumpkin seeds) also contain iron, but in the non-heme form, which isn’t absorbed as well.

That’s why eating a mix of both is key, but if you’re struggling with low iron or anemia, heme sources should be your main focus.

Want to know exactly how to raise your iron levels and avoid (or fix) anemia?
