Is vitamin C important during pregnancy??⁣
⁣
👉🏼 learn the most important information about vitamin C during pregnancy for FREE when you download my app, The Prenatal Nutrition Library (available in any App Store)! ✨⁣
⁣
In pregnancy, vitamin C levels decrease for several reasons; one, fruit and vegetable intake is typically decreased, therefore lower vitamin C intake. ⁣
⁣
Two, most vitamin C from the mom is passed to the baby, depleting the mom's stores.⁣

⁣
👉 Pre-cut veggie and fruit trays ⁣
[These are notorious for sitting out on the counter for hours at parties and are more susceptible to contamination. The best practice is to buy whole produce, wash, and chop/prepare yourself.]⁣
⁣

Can you meet your choline and DHA needs through fo

Can you meet your choline and DHA needs through food alone?? ⁣
⁣
(if you missed it, go back and watch Part 1!)⁣
⁣
Yes— it is absolutely possible!!⁣
⁣
And food sources of every nutrient should be prioritized. However...⁣
⁣
...with heightened needs during pregnancy, nausea, food aversions, and more, it can be challenging to eat the foods highest in these nutrients.⁣
⁣
While individualized, you may consider a choline supplement, especially if you do not eat eggs, and a DHA supplement, especially if you do not eat seafood. (view stories for more!)⁣
⁣
✨ I can help you find the right supplement for you, so you don’t have to guess on your own, and you’ll know you are meeting your needs. To access our guide, join The Prenatal Nutrition Library — link in bio!⁣

To me, healthy = consistently making choices that make you feel good.⁣
⁣
Choices that make you feel good mentally AND physically!⁣
⁣
If you are struggling to maintain a “nutrition plan” consistently, your plan is likely too strict.⁣
⁣
While food is fuel and nourishment, it’s also tradition, culture, fun, flavor, connection, creativity, experience, and more. ⁣
⁣
An eating pattern that is sustainable, one that provides energy, nutrients, and allows for flexibility, your favorite foods, and fun = healthy!⁣
⁣
If you need support, guidance, or encouragement, I’d love for you to check out ✨ the Prenatal Nutrition Library. ✨⁣
⁣
It’s an online community I’ve built not only to provide evidence-based information but also to give you the power and confidence to eat without fear during your pregnancy.⁣

Let’s get those iron levels UP ✨⁣
⁣
Of course, we want to up high iron foods, but what else can we do to help??⁣
⁣
Add vitamin C! 👏🍊⁣
⁣
Vitamin C helps your body absorb more iron, especially from non-heme sources like beans, peas, or potatoes.⁣
⁣
If you are struggling to maintain your nutrient levels, join The Prenatal Nutrition Library so we can help you get there.⁣
⁣
You’ll find more strategies to boost your iron intake, plus increasing other nutrients important in maintaining your iron levels as well.⁣
