The answer is pretty obvious if you aren’t dairy

The answer is pretty obvious if you aren’t dairy sensitive!

The dairy-based option has more:
✅ protein
✅ calcium
✅ potassium
✅ less added sugar

If you’re dairy sensitive, pair this forager drink with a more significant source of protein or try a non-dairy yogurt that has more protein, but still probiotics added in like @cocojune_organic protein yogurt (pea protein added in)!

💬 Comment TPNL and I’ll send you the app that helps you eat well without the guesswork, no matter your dietary needs.

👉🏼 our new version includes customized meal plans based on your needs and stage, whether you’re dairy-free, gluten-free, vegetarian, TTC, 2nd tri, or postpartum! 🫡

Matcha while pregnant?! 🍵 Let’s talk about

Matcha while pregnant?! 🍵

Let’s talk about it during pregnancy.🤰

The tannins and catechins in green tea (matcha!) can reduce how much of these key nutrients your body actually absorbs. 😬 But don’t panic, timing and portion size make a BIG difference.

Decreased folate absorption is typically seen in over 2 cups/day!

So,
✅ Limit to 1–2 cups per day
✅ Avoid pairing with iron- or folate-rich meals
✅ Space it out between meals

If you’ve ever Googled “Can I eat ____ while pregnant?”—you need @theprentalnutritionlibrary app.

Not all prenatal vitamins are created equal... and

Not all prenatal vitamins are created equal... and, unfortunately, most fall short.

Even with a prenatal, 95% of pregnant women are still nutritionally depleted.

As a prenatal dietitian, here’s what I recommend:
✅ Eat nutrient-dense foods as much as you can!
✅ Monitor key labs like vitamin D, iron, and thyroid
✅ Choose a prenatal that provides optimal nutrient forms and dosages!

A recent study found that women taking @needed ‘s Prenatal Multi had significantly higher levels of key nutrients than those on standard prenatals.

This matters because your prenatal vitamin should provide optimal nourishment for both you and your baby (Keep taking yours after birth to replenish your nutrient stores.)!

What if I can’t eat these…? 🤢 food aversio

What if I can’t eat these…?

🤢 food aversions, allergies, or general preferences… we get it!

Here’s what I recommend eating daily (and what to swap in if you can’t):

🥚 Eggs — rich in choline
→ Try: beef, salmon, chicken, cod, or edamame

🥛 Full-fat dairy — calcium, iodine, b vitamins
→ Try: sardines or salmon (with bones), tofu, or seaweed

🥬 Leafy greens — folate, magnesium, fiber
→ Try: lentils, avocado, broccoli, beans, or asparagus

You don’t need a “perfect” pregnancy diet!!
But you do need more of a lot of key nutrients.

Not sure if you’re getting the right nutrients each day?
You don’t have to figure it out on your own!
