“A is for Avocado, B is for Berries, C is for Cherries!” This thoughtful article provides a comprehensive and detailed list going down the alphabet from A to Z of different prenatal superfoods for mothers-to-be to consider to provide the nutritional boost they and their child needs during pregnancy. Included in the list are the various beneficial minerals and vitamins gained from these superfoods, how they benefit the baby, and any cautions that the mother should consider.
Key Takeaways:
- Avocados’ rich fat content makes it easier for the body to absorb certain vitamins, so eating them in conjunction with other good-for-you foods increases your gains.
- When you’ve just gotta have chocolate, reach for a bar of the dark stuff. A higher percentage of cocoa means a higher amount of flavonols, which research has shown lower blood pressure and improve vascular and cognitive function.
- Protein is a necessary component of a healthy diet—particularly during pregnancy, when your body is responsible for building baby’s tissues and bones—and there’s perhaps no better tasting place to find it than the incredible edible egg.
