Publisher's Summary

Prenatal nutrition can be confusing. A lot of the advice you have been given about what to eat (or what not to eat) is well-meaning, but frankly, outdated or not evidenced-based. In Real Food for Pregnancy, you will get clear answers on what to eat and why, with research to back up every recommendation.

Author and specialist in prenatal nutrition Lily Nichols, RDN, CDE has taken a long and hard look at the science and discovered a wide gap between current prenatal nutrition recommendations and what foods are required for optimal health in pregnancy and for your baby's development. There has never been a more comprehensive and well-referenced resource on prenatal nutrition. With Real Food for Pregnancy as your guide, you can be confident your food and lifestyle choices support a smooth, healthy pregnancy.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Modern research that is practical and easy to lear

A fantastic book with facts about every trimester. I found it hard too apply the nutrition habits in my first trimester due to the nausea and had a strong aversion to meat but this subsided by week 14. I found the micronutrient measurements/lab test suggestions and Meal plans in the book really helpful. As an Aussie, I wondered if the Vitamin D levels were as low as the American rates mentioned in the book. Thank you Lily for a wonderful read.

Everyone needs to read this book!

This book has been such an eye-opener and deep insight into our relationship with food, especially when it comes to pregnancy. I lobe how everything is backed up with papers, and statistics to further instill the importance of great nutrition to feed another life. This book is so good that I've also ordered a physical copy because I know this is such valuable information for many years to come, and it has completely changed the way I look and think about food.

Absolute bible

This book surpassed my expectations. So much good content in here and it goes from pregnancy through to postpartum and breastfeeding too. Exercise section is an additional bonus. It is quite a heavy read/listen but it’s all evidence based so going to be this way. Would highly recommend.

Vegetarian stay away from this book

Informative, however can increase anxiety if you are prone to it. More towards naturopath thinking/info than mass scientific info.
