Special Diet For Pregnancy
I’m pregnant! What a joy, but what should I eat?, How?, “I will be eating well? … are just some questions that moms are often primarily recalling that famous phrase: “we must eat for two.”
Doctors and nutritionists break this myth and agree that “we must eat for two”, making sure the mother and baby get all the nutrients they need without abusing food.
During pregnancy the needs of all nutrients, but there are some that play a role in the development of the baby in the womb, so it is necessary to pay special attention to diet.
A balanced diet will help repair and maintain cells and tissues, also provides adequate nutrition to promote growth and development of the baby, placenta quality, maintain energy levels throughout pregnancy, childbirth and post partum, prevent anemia and activate the production of milk. A good diet will also prevent problems of low birth weight, prematurity or infections.
