Prenatal Nutrition Tips – What to Eat Before and During Your Pregnancy


hi welcome to watchmojo.com my name is
Nick Robinson from a Nick arts comm and
today we’re talking about prenatal
nutrition we’ve already talked about
fertility nutrition and you’ve probably
seen our video on eating during
pregnancy and here are some things that
we need to add to our shopping list we
have here a really good absorbent
multivitamin look for something that is
naturally sourced read the label and
read the ingredients just like you would
if it’s a food if there are chemicals
and your vitamins don’t buy them look
for an alternative a nice B complex
which is essential we also have here
some probiotics probiotics are really
important in keeping your digestive
system functioning optimally and making
sure that you absorb the vitamins that
you’re having a good omega-3 which is
also highly recommended for pregnant
women and of course water is a staple
during pregnancy try to have water from
glass bottles rather than plastic it’s
not worth the risk
and there’s so many good quality waters
available in glass bottles and avoid tap
water a lot of communities although they
assure you they have good healthy tap
water sometimes it’s just not the case
iron is an essential during pregnancy as
your body is working really hard a lot
of women suffer from anemia or a
deficiency in iron so iron pills
unfortunately are sometimes extremely
hard to absorb and hard to digest
sometimes they cause more problems than
they solve so this particular one is a
liquid supplement which is made from
herbs and flowers and which is much
easier to absorb and digest
this will not hurt your belly as you go
and if you are having a lot of digestive
issues a little bit of aloe vera in the
morning in your water should help keep
your system functioning really well
cinnamon can help some women fight
nausea if you can’t eat your cinnamon if
your stomach is too upset and you want
to chew gum to keep your mouth clean
well there are some drugs out there
which are actually natural this one for
example has Josie’s wax some honey and
some cinnamon ginger is also a natural
anti nausea it’s also very good for your
digestion and it’s a natural
antibacterial and antiviral it ik
there’s a reason why they serve ginger
with your sushi because it really helps
keep your system clean so this is fresh
ginger you’ve never seen it before it
looks like a root in your grocery store
is very inexpensive so you simply peel
the outside husk grate it fresh so it’s
nice and juicy put it in your water it
should help control your nausea remember
that gluten causes inflammation of the
gut it could actually make your nausea
worse rather than help it so you want to
look for gluten free products for
example corn cakes some rice crackers
wild rice options that you can cook or
if you’re looking to add in some protein
with your starch we have here lentils
and black beans and these are just two
examples but there are hundreds of
varieties of legumes that will give you
some protein as well as the starch that
you crave to control the nausea black
seeds you can throw on top pretty much
anything and will give you a mega 3 some
added fiber and keep your digestion
running smoothly so well things like
adding some citrus or fresh figs for
example to increase your fiber intake so
I hope these things will help you live
with some of the discomforts of
pregnancy so you can focus on all the
positives
